New Product- Mug Cosies!!

Hello again,

I have a new product which I have been developing over the past few weeks, its a mug cosy which will keep you tea warm in these cold winter months! I have a two designs of mug cosies, one my screen printed doors, and the other is my milkmen. I have also up-cycled the mugs with my Illustrations , so everything relates.

I need to put little wooden buttons on them but I think they are looking good!

What do you think?

Thanks for reading. 

Exciting News- Saint George's Court, Contemporary Art and Craft Fair!

Hi All,

I have some exciting news; me and my fellow contemporary crafter Leah Fletcher are going to have a stall at a wonderful fair, St Andrew’s Court, Contemporary Arts and Craft Fair in Bolton on Bank Holiday Monday 29^th August! It is very exciting for us, and we are trying get to everything and make enough stuff to sell. The event will have more than 20 local crafters and artists, there will be face painting, and also unlimited tea and coffee. The event aims to encourage local artists and crafters back into the area as Saint Andrew’s court is currently being regenerated, so it’s an great event to be apart of.

A wonderful opportunity to sell our work and meet other talented makers, please look at all the different artists which are going be there http://saintandrewsfairs.tumblr.com/ or join the facebook group http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=177197615684697

Finally Finished!!

Hello!

My hand in date has been and gone! The few days running up to it were very exhausting, and I have now had a couple of days to recover due to the lack of sleep.

I am very happy with the end result, I have worked so hard and just hope it pays off. The work up for assessment looks really good, clean and exciting!

In the end I created-  two different types of cup cosies, ones with my pattern that fit a normal sized coffee cup and ones that fit my ceramic cups with digital print. 

I also had four final wall pieces two with my digital and appliqued milk man, which are my favourite and the other two are bigger and have my screen print as the background. I also appliqued a milk man’s overall jacket with a couple of milkmen which I really like as well.

My upcycled work looked really good as a collective of vintage ceramics and newly made ceramics. In addition I had three aprons, and also my ceramic cups on show for my assessment.

The next stage now is tomorrow I have to take my work down and then help with the 3D degree show where my work will be shown, and also this week I am going to create pieces to sell.
