Richmond Village Christmas Fair

Mince Pies and Mulled Wine...


The Christmas Fair at Richmond Village, Nantwich today was wonderful. The snow on the ground made it feel like Christmas already, as well as the carol singing and abundance of mulled wine and mince pies: a relaxing, cosy, comfortable atmosphere. 


P.S. I'm aware that a lot of the photos of the sock animals have (SOLD) written beneath them. I intend to put some more photos of new, available stock up as soon as I can! In the meantime, I am continuing to make new sock plushies but I can custom make you something to your tastes as well!

Thornton Hough Craft Fayre

There was a wonderful atmosphere at the Thornton Hough Christmas Fayre - courtesy of Fair Angels - today. The morning started quietly, but it gave me the opportunity to chat to fellow-stallholders (something I didn't get the chance to do at Hoole). After lunch, however, visitors flooded in for some Sunday afternoon Christmas shopping and I very nearly sold out of horses and cats!


The feedback was wonderful from visitors and crafters, making the day very enjoyable indeed. See my events page for my next appearance.

Commissions and Custom Projects Begin...

A Horse With Stars On...
I received my very first special request last week: after viewing my facebook page, a customer placed an order for a starry horse. Clearly, the only horses pictured are perfectly plain, but my customer liked the shape of them and wanted something tailored to their specific tastes. This was my first custom order, so I was able to test myself, and the system works perfectly! I also found it's extra satisfying to make something specifically for someone.

So... feel free to contact me if there's something special you want (at no extra cost!). Maybe a particular colour of stripes or stars or... whatever! See the resulting starry horse on my commissions page (coming soon).
