A very unique commission....
A beautiful bride wanted a personal thank you gift for her friends mother who made her wedding dress for her big day. How lovely is that?!

I was asked if I could incorporate some fabric from the dress to make the picture - this is what I came up with! Handmade mini mannequin & dress with really cute sewing related theme. The dress is the same style as the dress the bride wore. What do you think? Please excuse the glaring light on the glass, it was so bright out!! 

I really enjoyed making this one, was great to work with the client on a rough idea, then let my imagination take over with this as the end result. Really happy with how it turned out, and the client and recipient were too. Yay! :)

 I love making special pieces to be gifted for that special occasion, please get in touch if you have an idea for a custom frame. 

Is it a drum? Is it a table? No, its a drum table!!!

Full steam ahead with making in preparation for the weekend. Being a one woman show means lots of making to ensure enough stock for thee weekend. I love the buzz that comes with the build up to a big market, however long and sleepless the nights are beforehand! Being a Maker, this is what it is all about and what keeps spirits up at 4am while waiting for glue or paint to dry! Markets are a great chance to meet all my lovely customers, and get some feedback on new designs and crafts. Anyway, back to it, they aren't going to make themselves! See you there.
