*** 📣Temporary Shop Closure 📣***

Next week I’m moving house then I’m having a little UK jolly holiday so my online shop will be closing this Sunday 9th May for 3-4 weeks. If you want to treat yourself or a friend to some women-celebrating, confidence-inspiring, bold art t-shirts, tea towels and more, please do so in the next couple of days!

Whilst my online shop is closed you can still pick up some of my products from 🛍 A selection of my prints are available at the Pop-Up in John Lewis Trafford Centre or on their website! You can also get my Modern Muse prints and tea towels from the section in Groceries & Beer in Sale. 😁

Yesterday I went to see my Tea Towels, Prints & Card’s available as part of the Pop-Up in the fabulous in Sale. The market was on, the sun was out and the atmosphere was buzzing! My 4 year old son Lenny saw the shop, pointed at the Greta print in the window and very excitedly said ‘Look Mummy, that’s yours!’ 🥰

If you’re in the area, go visit this wonderful independent store. My hubby was very impressed with their beer selection! We sat outside and had a pizza and it felt amazing to have a ‘normal’ trip out! ❤️☀️

Yesterday I managed to get some snaps of the INCREDIBLE Made Local Pop-Up that’s just launched in the Trafford Centre. It was amazing to see my prints amongst such a fabulous range of locally designed/made products - I’ve tagged some of the other wonderful makers/artists in the images 😊

Me and my baby bump felt very safe in the shops - it wasn’t crowded, everyone wore masks and there were safety measures in place within the Pop-Up, John Lewis and the Trafford Centre.

If you manage to get to the Pop-Up please take a snap of my prints and tag me! 💖 Oh and do treat yourself to something wonderful from a small local business.

Thank you so much for all the birthday love over the weekend! 🥰 I had a fab few days, it felt amazing to actually talk to people in real life and to sit outside in the sun!

For those that may have missed it, last weekend also saw the launch of my Bundle Bonanza which will run throughout April. 🎉 In this pic is one of my Bold Home bundles and it includes 1 x Fine Art Giclee Print and 2 Cushion Covers. The original selling price for these 3 items would total £75 but this exclusive bundle is available for £35 and I have just 1 LEFT!

These items are from my first series of textile artworks, all influenced by the unapologetically strong, powerful and beautiful original supermodels of the 90s. These designs were inspired by Cindy Crawford (green), Claudia Schiffer (yellow) and Naomi Campbell (pink).

It’s my birthday! I am 35 years old today. 🥳 I’ve had the perfect day so far being spoilt my boys and am looking forward to having some more garden gatherings with my friends and family over the next couple of days!

To celebrate my birthday, I just launched my special bundle bonanza which will run until the end of April 🎉 If you’ve had chance to look at my new bundle offers, which one’s your favourite? Are you an art collector, a bold home decorator or a feminist t-shirt wearer?

So... here’s the reason I’ve been going a lot slower with Loaf & Bear and life in general this year! My energy has been sucked up by growing a tiny human, arriving in August!

I’m so very excited for and appreciative of the baby and the science behind their development is blooming miraculous but... pregnancy itself is something I really don’t enjoy! 😬 The fact we’ve been in lockdown means I’ve not had enough distraction from the exhaustion, nausea, pain, hormones and the last 3 months have been a struggle. I have not been and am still not at my strongest mentally and emotionally. Which is why there are massive gaps in my engagement on here, and off it too to be honest! My motivation, energy and joy has been frequently (but not always) very low.

Here’s hoping things get better as we ease out of lockdown but thank you to everyone who has engaged with me in the past couple of months, I’ve really appreciated the connection (even if I’ve not shown it.) 💖 I’m sure relaxing and chatting with friends and family in gardens, working away from my dining table, being in locations other than my house and local walking routes, and catching up with other makers at in-person markets and events will make such a difference to my wellbeing! I’m really looking forward to what lies ahead.

In the meantime, if anyone has any tips for mood-boosting that doesn't involve wine, gin or rare steak, please let me know! 😂
