Emma Cassi

It's a hush hush project I can't say very much about but I wanted to get a little bit of excitement going by teasing you with a snippet of info!
I had the delight of meeting the wonderful Emma Cassi...crafter of beautiful lace jewellery and talented stylist...at my home this month.
All I can say is that next year there'll be a beautiful book to present to you all which will feature my work in my somewhat bizarrely decorated, rented bedroom in London...sadly it comes before I have my own place to adorn fully the way I would choose...but perhaps I'll get another opportunity then...
...for now this was a wonderful honour and I'm so grateful to Emma for including me...
...stay tuned!

Birds of Europe

I've previously posted my newest works...studies of species of bird...including Mr Kingfisher, Robin redbreast and the Grey wagtail...
this past month I've been further crafting and these delights are now, I proudly announce, on sale at the beautiful Liberty store in London.

There you'll see a swallow, a blue tit, a greenfinch and a chaffinch, a gold crest, another little robin and a grey wagtail. I'm so delighted that they've found themselves a home there...but I do hope they all fly out to even better homes very soon!

Cockpit Arts Open Studios

I personally find it so much more interesting to meet the artists and makers behind the work and to buy directly from them...
...if you find so too then you'll be delighted to know that you have this very opportunity coming up!

My studio is in London at Cockpit Arts , Holborn, and we open up to the public so you can come meet us, snoop round our workspaces and hopefully find beautiful little delights to take home with you...on Friday 27th, Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th November.

It's such a fun weekend full of so many wonderful things to feast your eyes upon and the chance to pick up some truly original works of art for Christmas.
We also have a competition to win a Christmas tree decorated with one off decorations crafted by the makers of Cockpit and kids colouring and making activities run by ME!...

...so please do come and visit beacause it's also so much more wonderful for us to meet the people who buy our work!

So as part of my busy week I've set about making these little cuties...who have been flitting about in my head for some time now. I am delighted with how they have turned out and have already found my first stockist! They are priced at £32 for the larger size (9x7cm approx) and £26 for the smaller (6x5cm approx). I'll be adding a couple to my online shops but please do contact me by email if you are interested in one to brighten up your coat now autumn seems to be setting in.

Small Birds...Big Apple

I was delighted to see my little birds have made themselves a home in the window of the exquisite Takashimaya department store on Fifth Avenue, New York!! I think they look pretty happy amongst the asparagus spears!
