I was gutted to see yet another grim, grey sky this morning. We were due to do some after-hours work on the craft party this evening, and I was hoping to get some photos of our samples. The sun was clearly on our side though, as it graced us with its presence just in time...


One of our Craft Lounge activities will be making pom-poms with our fancy pom-pom makers! Pom-poms aren't just for bobble...

I've not been inspired to take any photos this week. The weather was horrible yesterday and everything looked grey because of it. Sorry.

But here is a VERY cool late Washi Wednesday for you to enjoy, borrowed from Teawagon Tales:


We've been beavering away on our craft party! Everything is now ordered, so we are working on our samples for the 6 - yes, SIX - mini craft workshops you'll get to try...

Did you know we sell beauteous party stuffs? Paper straws (now available in rainbow stars and chevrons), hats, crowns, patterned plates, cups and napkins, as well as tissue pom poms starting at just £1, crepe paper streamers, paper chains and bunting, new felt photo booth props, school milk bottles, jumbo confetti and chevron & striped paper bags! The smaller items (straws, bags and streamers) are...

My small ceramic Rhino has his ticket, have you got yours?

We've been ordering new things for the shop. I have ordered a big thing for me that won't arrive until June (I've had the same one for 8 years now, it's time she retired). We've also booked a thing for you all to enjoy.

Watch this space for a very exciting announcement coming soon. In the mean time, here are some fawn brooches:

What an amazing year we've had!


We've completely changed our logo to something we think suits us far better.


We're stocking brands we love and have more home made items than we've ever had before. We trashed the shop and re-arranged it so the layout is much more to our liking.

Our craft workshops have become increasingly popular, we're really proud of the fantastic skills people can now learn in the...

Thank you all, so, so much! All 75+ people (we lost count), that came to our Etsy craft party and made it fabulous.

We ate, drank and crafted. We carved rubber stamps, made cardboard owls, sewed felt brooches, made macrame bracelets, drilled and glued key rings, made washi tape jewellery, knitted, nattered and generally had a ball!

Our Friday Finds this week come from all of us, and have been accumulated over several years, but they are finds nonetheless! Amy, Zoë and I all adore vintage fabrics, especially retro bedding. In order to make anything fun with it, we think you need at least two contrasting bits. So we have pooled our collections to make these fabulous fabric packs!



Thank you to everyone who came along to the...

Only a week to go! A box of very exciting goodies has arrived from Etsy - here are some of it's contents:

Amy and Zoë spent Wednesday organising supplies for the rest of the projects we have planned. Many of you have been asking us exactly what we'll be getting up to on the night - have a look at our pinterest board to see the kind of things we have in mind. You can expect to pick from at...

It's Wednesday kids. Here is Amy's Washi box: and inside:We'll certainly be playing with washi at our Etsy Craft Party next month. Maybe we'll have a game of stick the washi on the donkey. Better suggestions would be appreciated. Berylune, 45...

We have teamed up with Sewsmith (aka Lara, who teaches screen printing and other fabulous workshops in our studio), and Sew Make Believe (a popular, Leamington based crafting and book club meet-up group that our good friend Zoë helps organise),...
