Just checking in with a quick post, I am still beavering away making for the fair!
Plenty of red, white and blue....appropriately enough for this lovely long Jubilee weekend!
This jaunty lighthouse is made from driftwood and reclaimed nuts and is loosely based on the one on Plymouth Hoe...
More experimenting with text. The colour of the roofs above remind me of the orangey ones in St Ives, so I stamped "As I was going to St Ives" along the bottom....and given the piece some gorgeous blue "sea"
This little row is made from a leftover piece of oak beam we used above our fireplace...
...as was the one above. I have added a new detail: a little birdhouse!
...made from tiny bits of driftwood and a small rusty tack.
Lots of cottages and washing!
Another slightly bigger birdhouse with rusty metal roof.
Plus I have been pricing up stock, tying labels on bags and ordering postcards. I am delighted with these latest ones from moo.com
Well thats all for now. My next post will probably be after the fair, so I will make sure I take plenty of photos of my stand!
TTFN!
