Art & Craft

Hello and a very happy new year!

I thought this would be a good time for me to share the work of some of the many artists and crafters that I have discovered over the past year.  All of whom I have purchased work from, either as gifts for others or a little treat for myself.  

One of the great things about selling at art & craft fairs is that I usually (thanks to my husband who looks after my stall) get the chance to do a bit of shopping for myself and I have met some wonderful people and started lovely collections of their work.  

As I have shops on Folksy and Etsy I look at them on a daily basis and am always finding new things that would be ideal as gifts.  The great thing about those sites is that I can have items delivered direct to friends and family around the globe and quite often with a little message included on my behalf.

So here is just a small selection of some of my favourite purchases from the past 12 months...
