On the scrounge!


New needle felted fox going into my Folksy shop. This textile sculpture is a little larger than my other pieces and requires a few finishing touches but once completed he'll be on the lookout for some tasty treats, though truth be told, he's not fussy!

Frivolous Friday

Toad of Toad Small
 

Found this beauty at the end of September.
Gave him a little peck but fear that he may have been trading off his close relations fairy tale status as he remained untransformed in all his miniature, warty glory.

Let Them Eat Cake (and Cookies)

The very talented Lucy Samuels at Honeycat Cookies used the following painting,  'Autumn Fairies' by Arthur Rackham to create a box of beautiful, bespoke, hand painted cookies for my mums birthday.
 
 
My photos really don't do them justice but needless to say my mum was thrilled and so once they'd been presented, I spread the contents out to be enjoyed at a family tea party (mental note to self, think of something similar to give next year which I can also benefit from!!)
 
 
The hand painted windswept fairies took centre stage on a raised dish
 
 
 The centre piece was surrounded by a fairy ring of micro lights, hand turned wooden mushrooms, fabric oak leaves and Egyptian blown glass bottles 
 
 
Lucy's hand painted, acorns, mushrooms and autumn leaves were dotted between the plates on heart shaped lace doilies
