Brooches and cards

I've been tinkering with some animal brooch ideas, and pondering whether to make part gift/part greeting card

Just little sketchy ideas soo far...

I know, for my friend Kimmy...nearly as bad as my Gorillas a hug and and Happy Eggy Easter form years gone by;)

Brooches

Just started tinkering with some little brooch ideas, using characters I've doodled. So far I have a bird and a dawg. Am also thinking...owls, cats...elephants...fish...aliens....anything really! I didn't have much silver knocking around this weekend, so I'm going to do a few in copper.

This is what I have so far...

The copper is up-cycled, it has come from an old 60's cupboard and you can still see the scratch marks where it was glued ono the cupboard.

For now I'm going to pierce and punch the eyes and bits n pieces, but I think etched faces, or textures might be good too.

Craft fairs

Busy working on some more bits n pieces for my next craft fair at otley courthouse on 31 st March. Easter Sunday , hope to see people there. Also drying together submissions for other fairs and events,so watch this space!

Test run

OK, so it looks like my PayPAL payment bit isn't up and running properly, please bear with!!

 Check back later!

New website and virgin blogger!

My first ever blog! Think I'd best keep it short, I have a tendency to ramble. Should I be excited? Well I'm mainly tired from the frustrations of setting up this new site. Technology was supposed to make life easier. Not sure how much I'll blog, and I may only appear on here when I have something to rant or rave about. Think I'd rather be designing and making...hey ho!

Just umming and ahhing as to whether to publish site now I've added stuff to my shop?hmmmm

There, short n sweet and not too painful ;)
