Christmas is just around the corner and I wanted to do a little giveaway.
I had some beautiful soaps made up by Honeyz Bath Products Limited in Whitby, North Yorkshire.
The quality of their soap is second to none and we get all the soap we use in our house from this little shop.
I only have one lavender soap and the tester left, and it smells divine!
It's entirely up to you whether you would keep it for yourself or maybe give it away as a little stocking filler.
You'll also get a 10% off voucher!
All you have to do to enter is sign up to my newsletter:

The winner's name will be drawn out of a hat at 8pm (GMT) on Monday 12th December.
Good Luck!
Please allow me to introduce Beatrix.
She's a little mohair steampunk girl, 8 inches tall.
She is one of a kind and now available for adoption at my website:

Please allow me to introduce you to Vyvyan, he is a punk bear and is named after Ade Edmondson's character in 'The Young Ones'.

He is made from purple mohair with a green backing, with green felt inner ears and paw pads. His mohawk is orange faux fur.

He has hand painted green glass eyes and a large green needle-felted nose.
He has an embroidered anarchy symbol on his foot pad. He has three piercings in his left ear, one in his eyebrow and one in his nose.
Vyvyan is also wearing an plectrum anarchy pendant around his neck.
He is available for adoption here:

Please allow me to introduce you to Caelan.
He is a gift for my best friends little boy, and is named after him. He's only 8 months old, and obviously he is a keepsake, every child needs a bear to grow up with don't they?
Caelan's dad's family are Irish, so when I asked for a suggestion for a bear they told me Irish and green. They chose the emerald green fur, and I made up the rest as I went along.
Anyway, I think he turned out rather well. Actually, I think the position of the seam on the left side of his face gives him quite a mischievous look, and the right side looks sweet and innocent.
He's off to his new home next weekend, where he will be getting a pendant to finish him off.
Hope you like him
Yes, I think she will be Becky.
I have to make a mini version now

Hi everyone,
I've just revamped my website and I would love to know what you all think of the new look.

Yes, you do need to have public and products liability insurance.
I used to use GM Imber's Craftinsure Starter policy which is around £50 for the year. Unfortunately this policy doesn't cover selling overseas though.
Here is the link if you would like to take a look at these: http://www.gmisl.co.uk/site/products/cr … e-starter/
I am currently with a-n. It's £36 for the year to become a member of a-n.co.uk, which includes public and product liability insurance (this includes cover for items sold to USA and Canada etc).

Hope this helps x
Thanks Pink, SueAnn & Peter
Thank you EJ

Please allow me to introduce you to Gertie.
Gertie is approximately 12.5" (32cm) tall, measured standing and including her antennae.
She is made from green mohair, with pale yellow inner ears and has cream felt paw pads.
Gertie is five way jointed, with a nut and bolt joints in her arms and legs and a cotter pin neck joint, and is filled with heavy weight polyester fibre and steel shot.
She has hand painted green sparkly glass eyes and a large green needle-felted nose.
Her face, paws and ears have been carefully hand shaded and she has a lovely pair of curly green wire antennae.
Gertie is also wearing a wire wrapped green sea glass pendant around her neck and handmade faerie wings.
Here is my latest commissioned bear, Floss.
She was commissioned by a good friend of mine as a gift for her sister, for completing her last round of chemo, so Floss is a present that is very well deserved!
Floss's name comes from a nickname they use for each other, and she is made from mohair of the closest pink to the breast cancer awareness ribbon that I could find.
I'm happy to say that her new mum is recovering well and loves her bear, I hope you like her too
Thank you Becky x
Thank you Pink x
I got a commission for a Koala at the end of December. I have just finished him, so I thought I'd show him off.
I'm quite proud of this little fella, he's my first Koala and no mock ups were done first.
He just needs a name now, so waiting for his new mum to think of one.
Hope you like him
This little bear has been patiently waiting to make his debut, so without further ado, please allow me to introduce you to Wisp.
Wisp is one of a kind and is my own design.
He is approximately 11.5" tall and made from beautiful cream faux fur. Wisp's paws have been embroidered and his is felt paw pads and inner ears have been carefully hand shaded in blue/grey to complement his large blue needle-felted nose.
Wisp has black glass eyes and is fully jointed with nuts and bolts in his arms and legs and a cotter pin neck joint.
He is quite heavy as he is filled with heavyweight polyester fibre has some steel shot in his tummy.
Wisp is also wearing a handmade, wire wrapped sodalite pendant.
Wisp would be over the moon if he could find a new home in time for Christmas, and he would be happy to travel overseas to be with his new family.
You can see his full details and more photos over at his adoption page on my website:
