my future boyfriend

so i love this bag my friend Zoe has just had printed, she is the nimble fingered big talent from love from hetty and dave, and it features what my future boyfriend will look like, older and bearded and capable of driving many boats across many a choppy sea... he would so have to give up the pipe though ?..

i love a big bear

so being a big bear of a man myself i find im attracted to a similar type, furry all over and with a lovely big, erm...smile helps, however standing in a river catching fish with their teeth is not such a tun on, so until i find that perfect new man (anyone know a good cheap divorce lawyer ?)i will settle for one of these lovely guys, they are sold exclusively in carry me home,

this is the shop i work in, and where i sell lots of things, they each have names and a numbered tag. and are based on the shape of bear my boss had when she was a kid.
get one here...

im becoming so dull

so more dresses I'm afraid, but believe me if they didn't sell so well i would happily never make another one... now don't get me wrong, they certainly are not selling on etsy.. and i have no clue why ?.. what am i doing wrong ?. but thanks to carry me home, the brilliant shop i sell them in I'm kept busy busy..
they are now in my very unsuccessful etsy shop,....

i should have and i did

so i had this (from here)in my etsy favorites for a few days deciding if i should buy it or not.. but buggery bollocks it only sold before i could get it.. oh well, that's life.. i do wish it was mine though..however i did buy a mouse in a blouse (from here) and a goat in a boat...and as i collect things with the letter S, i had to get this sheep in a leap... god i love old crap other people would normally throw away...cant wait for them to arrive..

very talented friends

so my one of my best est friends Nicola Jane has just launched her new website, and its bloody lovely, its very paired down and cleanly shows of her unique style in a way that focuses on the work, rather than lots of fussy palava you often have to wade through before you actually see anything... we all know places like that don't we ?Nicola and me go way back to the days when in the middle of spitalfields market, where we each were selling our things,(she always sold more than me,i barely covered the cost of the taxi i used to get there) she would tell me tales of her pet duck, and how it slept, and she would lie flat across a chair to teach me the butterfly swimming stroke... we even once got told off for laughing too much.and i don't think its boasting to say that without my guiding influence and support, she wouldn't be where she is today,... well actually that's a massive lie because she now lives in New Zealand, and if i really had any power she would still be living just down the road and under that scary tunnel and next to the electricity sub station that hummed
to see much more of her work please do visit her new website, you wont be disappointed.. read the about bit, she sounds so fancy..
i miss you Nicola, but i miss your husband more!(i love you Chris) xx
