Presents...

Ok, so I haven't updated this blog in a long time. Just been very busy recently, I lost my job at Christmas, so I have been re-jigging my website and hope to launch the new site next week. Here are some designs I have been working on, first up a mothers day card for my, well, mother...


Next up, more work from my sister. This time she wanted to give people presents for birthdays and christenings. They have the childs name, date of birth, time of birth, weight at birth and also the date that they were christened. The photos are of poor quality, but my scanner went kaput, so they were taken with my very shakey hands...

Chinese New Year Paintings...

Some more paintings for the Chinese New Year characters...

Work, work, work

So I spent the weekend making an order of felt goodness for my mam. She wanted felt horses to give to her horseriding friends for Christmas, and some cats. I think they worked out well!

More Chinese New Year Animals

Here is another Chinese New Year Zodiac painting. This was commissioned by Una for her family, including her husband and two sons.

Sandy Connolly...

My friend Sandy Connolly has started designing and making costume jewellery - necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, brooches, spectacle cords, Christmas decorations, phone charms, etc with a view to starting up a business (home based) if things go well.

If any of you have Christmas pressies yet to purchase and might be interested in jewellery as a pressie for yourself/sisters/girlfriends/nieces/mother-in-laws/future mother-in-laws, it would be great if you'd have a look-see at her blog.

She makes custom pieces as well as hosting jewellery party nights – contact her at sandyconnolly@gmail.com

Chinese New Year Animals...

So I have been commissioned to do two more Chinese New Year paintings. The one below and one with four animals on it for an entire family! I will post the other pictiure soon.
