New products - Three tired frames

These frames were first created by Katie as Christmas gifts. They were such a hit that we have started creating some for Butterfly Artworks as well. These frames have been made so that you can add your own photos or we can print your (emailed) photo on the matching textured card.
These ones are for sale, $30 each with photo printing at no extra cost.

and then there is this most beautiful house welcoming sign. Pictures don't do it justice!

Thanks for looking and don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Off to market we went.

It's too long a story for now but on Thursday I called

and got into the Parkdale Market!

Well, the market went ok. Quieter than i expected but a few others said it was quiter than usual. I have booked in for next month and look forward to seeing those who took info and mentioned bringing friends back. I sold a few peices and took one order. For a starter I was happy to have covered my costs and come out with a little in hand.

Thanks to mum for coming with me today and to my family for being kind enough to release me for the morning. Love you all! Thanks too, to those who have been supportive in my adventures. xox

My very first stall at a market

treasured

I'm not much of a blogger more of a talker but tonight I'm feeling bloggy so here goes.

I felt that it was really important to have a word for each of the kids rooms. I wanted something that spoke into their lives and into who they are and will become. For Zoe it was beloved. I did it in a metalic white embossed with butterflies and for Toby...treasured. Its been sitting on the shelf waiting to be finished for a few months now, will since before we moved into this house (last November) but it's done now and i am so pleased with the outcome. It looks brillant on his wall as its the only thing on the wall. A real statement of who our Toby is, treasured by us and treasured by God.

more words. jungle, chosen & BABY

I really enjoyed doing these! I did the BABY as a baby shower pressent. The other two words are for sale.I'm working on Toby's word for his bedroom tonight... tomorrows blog maybe :D

The brochure - photo try 2

At last, I have a brochure!

It's a tri-fold design and is double sided. I'm happy with the end product...for now that is :) More than happy to send out a hard copy to anyone who wants one.
