Just some of the wonderful and incredibly stylish pieces that will be in 'An Eclectic Eye' exhibition, opening tomorrow...
Just a short hop from beautiful Corfe Castle, often with deer wandering outside the studio, Jo will be opening the doors of the studio at Furzebrook, for the exhibition, with so many carefully sourced, beautiful pieces available.
This is just a snapshot, but I love the paintings by , the stunning Charles Bound pots and the bowls and vases by .ceramics too...
So many tempting pieces on offer.
The Exhibition is taking place from tomorrow, at the Furzebrook Studios, but online too, and it is the only place you will be able to find my jewellery before Christmas, this year

I've been a bit out of the loop for the last few weeks, as we're traveling around Japan in a campervan, but I'm looking forward to being part of Timeline Arts' superb winter Expo & sale again.
Jo has an amazing eye, and having seen the pieces she has found for this year's event, I know it will be a great success
It is my only pre-Christmas event this year, and will be online and in person, so keep an eye out for more information, if you are thinking about a piece of wearable history for Christmas

Time to get making again
After summer events, we hopped on our bikes and went on a bit of a cycling adventure, pedalling 1200km through France and watching some rugby on the way ...
But today, after a lovely walk down the estuary to Budleigh for coffee, I set to work on some of the new pieces we've sourced recently.
I must admit that I rather love the little duck-head coffee spoon pendant and the napkin ring cuff with lily of the valley and daffodils is just so detailed. The sugar tong & spoon bangles too are all really decorative...
They'll be heading off for Assay this week,together with some other pieces too and will be on their way to for her winter exhibition too...
It's nice to be making again

Our last summer event over for this summer and what a way to finish...
We've had a fantastic day at Dunster Show, in the Craft Marquee with lots of other wonderful artisans . We've talked ourselves hoarse, seen lots of pieces of wearable history go off to continue their stories and to put the icing on the cake, we won the best Trade Stand too...
We've had such a great time this summer and thanks to everyone who has come to chat about the pieces and also show us the pieces they've previously bought, which they love to wear....
Time for a glass of wine, a good night's sleep and then we can start packing for our big cycling adventure down through France, which starts on Monday ...
Our next event will see some of my pieces in the superb winter Exhibition & sale at Furzebrook in Dorset. More info soon...
Thanks again for your support

Another lovely day at Okehampton Show, with 3rd prize for the Craft Tent Stand ...
Hard to believe that tomorrow will be our last event of the summer, at Dunster Show and then we'll be setting off on an exciting, long bike ride through to the South of France, starting on Monday...
It's been a great few weeks of events, and we're looking forward to our first trip to Dunster tomorrow and catching up with other great makers we've met over the last few years....
So a 4am alarm is being set and coffee will be on hand!
Looking forward to another lovely day
