The Allendale Forge Studios on such a beautiful day

02/08/2026

I am blown away that two of my pictures have sold today - the hare and the owl, to someone I was talking to when I was at The Allendale Forge Studios on Thursday.

The original fox picture will be making a return this week. I shall try to keep on top of making pictures.
But which creature would you like to see make an appearance next?

Once again, thank you to all the wonderful customers who buy my work. Without you, I wouldn't be making all these wonderful items, which I put my heart into.

What's new at
@?

I've updated my pitch to include otters and barn owls, pictures and sculptures, plus more sheep as they have been popular.

There will be more creatures coming as soon as they are made.

Which woodland creature would you like to see?

A start to my morning...vanilla latte and cheese scone!

The cafe is open until 3pm today so if you're hungry when you get here, there's something to fill that gap.

The The Allendale Forge Studios gift shop has plenty quality handmade items. Totally unique. Even the gallery and Forge Artists have something to offer.

The shop and gallery are open until 4pm today, so please come and visit and say hi.

So could this be why I haven't seen him in a while?

So who do you think will go through to the final?

Plus, keep an eye out for Cedric. If you see him, please let me know.

The Gift Shop door is open for you to come in until 4pm today.

The Café isnt open but there's still plenty to look at in The Allendale Forge Studios

We stock gifts all handmade by our artists. We also have cards, wrapping paper, accessories and art stock.

You can even sit outside for a bit too and just relax. Or, if you prefer to hide away from the sun, we do have chairs inside.
