I know my pictures are not great but the actual products are fab!  I will also have a selection of cupcake toppers and fabulous cupcake cases - great for summer parties, but most excitedly I will have a gorgeous set of cupcakes and toppers designed especially with the Diamond Jubilee in mind, watch this space. They will be available from the Cornhall in March.
I think this will be the year for the street party! - I can't wait.....

Oh it's too exciting........

February has started well for me, why I hear you ask, well let me tell you.  I am finally inspired with new stock.  I have had not 1 but 2 fabulous new ideas which is quite amazing given that I am seriously worried that at 44 years of age I am developing senile dementia!
 On Tuesday I bashed my eye by walking into the bit that sticks out of our printer and yesterday when trying to leave the village hall in Miserden I thought I had fully wound down my window to check that I wasn't about to hit the gatepost, I looked out quickly to check and discovered that the said fully wound down window was not fully wound down and wacked me on my nose.  I have many other examples which I won't bore you with now but watch this space for fab new ideas!
See ya

as promised.........


A sneaky peek at my new stock..........
Six fabulous vintage pressed glass cake stands, only one has a small chip to the rim - these are becoming so hard to source now so I feel very lucky to have amassed such beauties.
The mirror is large and covered in fab CK.....................see you on the 15th!

Long time no see!

Hello and a Happy New Year!
Well this is just a little visit to say that I will be back at the Cornhall in Cirencester from Wednesday 15th February.
I have missed all my fellow stallholders and regular customers but my little break away has allowed me to amass a few gorgeous items.........want a little peek?
Well I have 5, yes count them 5, vintage glass pedestal cake stands and yes they are beauties!  I have new mirrors, even a large one decorated in Cath Kidston!!!
I will attempt a few photos, just to wet your appetites, and hope to show all in a few days!!
See you on the 15th!

Birthday Treats!

A birthday in our house is always a time for treats and celebrations - well mine was no exception!  I was woken with presents including 2 boxes from my favourite potter - Emma Bridgewater!
I also finally got to wear the earings that I have spent all summer paying for, new slippers, smellies and gorgeous Cath Kidston treats - oh but that was just the beginning.......
I was whisked up the M5/M6 to the world of Emma B and treated to lunch in her fab new kitchen/cafe, a little bit of shopping was allowed (well it is my birthday!) and then onwards to Manchester.


Joy Serving Bowl
This is what I bought - I love it!
Why Manchester?  To see Peter Kaye Live of course and he didn't disapoint, I nearly passed out I laughed so much. We had a night in a fabulous Hotel, use of a complimentary bar and canapes, gorgeous breakie cooked by someone else and a night without the kids thanks to my mum.  What could be better?  I was spoilt and pampered and I loved every minute of it!
So it's been a while - lost my enthusiasm a little back there.  I have been busy booking Xmas fairs and events and as always making - want to see the latest project?



 I have always wanted to have a go at using wallpaper - pretty expensive if you make a mistake - but thankfully this has turned out perfectly.  I have painted this in Farrow & Ball Pointing and of course the paper is Cath Kidston Antique Rose, it is now listed on good ole Ebay so take a look.
See you soon, x
