I've been working on lots of new pieces so far this year, and am just about to send some off to the lovely Oriel Myrddin Gallery in Carmarthen, Wales. Here's a little taster...

I received some cheerful news for the new year in the post the other day, and am delighted to say that I'll be exhibiting at The Contemporary Craft Fair in Bovey Tracey during June. I'm sure it will be great event and am looking forward creating some new pieces for it already. 

Back into the studio tomorrow, but for now I'd like to wish all my customers and stockists a very happy and prosperous new year!

 I've just got back from a fantastic 3 days at Made by Hand at Tredegar House in Newport. It was great to meet so many new customers, gallery owners and other makers, as well as seeing all the beautiful work on show.

I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone who visited my stand, for all the lovely compliments about my work, and of course to those who bought pieces.

I'll be posting a few pictures from the event soon too, so watch this space!

 Yippee! madebyhandonline is now officially live, the exclusive online shop selling contemporary craft direct tot the public. 

You'll find a selection of my work on my makers page, so if you've got any last minute christmas presents to buy make sure to check it out!

It’s been a busy time over the last few weeks, with running workshops, doing a photoshoot with lots of exciting work and setting up my shop at madebyhandonline, but I thought I’d grab a few minutes just to upload some photos of what I’ve been up to!

Setting up a bangle for the photoshoot ...

and some of the final photos.

I'm really excited that madebyhandonline is going live soon too, where I'll be selling a small selection of my work.  I'll make sure to keep you posted!
