⭐️ Father’s Day cards restock ⭐️

To celebrate I nipped out for some dad appropriate wrapping paper 🤷🏼‍♀️ to take fresh photos with.

Also may have accidentally bought some prosecco and Reese’s peanut butter cups for tonight.

Because Wednesday 🙄🥂

Father’s Day cards are available in my Etsy shop for Derbyshire, Yorkshire, and general chuffin legends ✌🏻

This mug reunited me with a school friend I’d not seen for over 20 years.

And we’re going for a boozy lunch today 🎉🎉

We lived 5 houses apart, caught the same school bus, were in the same classes, and same group of friends.

Proper friends.

Then we went to different uni’s and in the age before mobile phones (😱) we lost touch.

Fast forward a few years (ahem, decades) and she walks into in Chesterfield where we grew up and buys this mug.

She loves it so much she looks up the maker, sees my face, says ‘OMG that’s Maria’ and BOOM, we’re messaging!

At least I *think* it was this mug she bought, I’ll ask her today ✌🏻😉🤪

🙌🏻 It’s the start of 🙌🏻

A month long series of prompts to help small indies introduce themselves and their work.

So heeeeey 👋🏻 I’m Maria!

I create fun gifts and cards based on weird and wonderful local sayings.

Every day is a school day and I often find new meaning in words that I’ve been saying for years… the most recent example is pillock 🤯 (take a look at my post from a few weeks ago to see it’s real meaning)

Let me know what your fave local word or sayings is in the comments… I’ll go first, mine is buggerlugs 😉

Enjoyed a gorgeous late afternoon walk at today to finish the weekend off right ✌🏻

My black be reyt mugs are finally back in stock, so of course I had to take one for a little photo shoot 😉

Available now in my Etsy shop 🛒

⭐️ Out with the old… ⭐️

… in with the new.

In order to make room for ‘pillock’ in my glorious mug tower here, I’m decommissioning the ‘ee by gum’ design.

If you’d like to snap one up before they’re gone for good, there’s a 10% off sale in my Etsy shop for the next couple of days ✌🏻

• P I L L O C K •

A few of you asked for a pillock definition.

Thing is, for me, it means the same as wazzock really. Although pillock is perhaps a slightly softer insult?

Like I *might dare to call my mum a pillock… but defo not a wazzock 😂🙈🤪

So I was shocked (shocked I say!) to discover the meaning of pillock, which derives from the word ‘pillicock’.

My gentle sensibilities won’t permit me to write the next bit (😉) so swipe across to see what I screen grabbed from t’internet.

It’s even in caps 😂

Pillock will never be the same again. And now I certainly can’t call my mum one 😂😂😂

🇫🇷 ooh la la 🇫🇷

Check out this brill photo of my be reyt tote bag hanging out in Paris! At one of my fave places no less.

That blue sky. Bit different from the horizontal rain/hail situ happening here 😩☔️🌪

I love to see photos of you using my products, and this gloriously sunny shot has made my day - thanks for sharing 🥰🥰

Do you recognise the landmark in the background? 🧐

🔑 key rings 🔑

New and improved! Can you spot the difference? New version on the right in this photo 🧐🧐

I’ve taken the design right out to the edges to make the text larger, and hopefully easier to read the description.

And I’ve gone for a slightly darker red, again to help make the small text easier to read.

Lots of you ask for more designs in the key rings. Sadly I just can’t fit words like buggerlugs on this tiny 5cm space 🤷🏼‍♀️

But I thought I could enlarge the ones that do fit, and hopefully improve the product…

…what do you think?
