Issue 8 of Crafting Ireland is out today, filled with all the usual goodness including a shadow box house which has now jumped to the top of my “next job to do” list (thanks Timi!!)
But, in the “Spotlight” section the featured crafter is……ME!!!!!! I have to tell you I was thrilled, like totally thrilled to be asked!!!!
So, here it is, enjoy!!
πΈ Would you like to join me for a free mini art class? πΈ
Send me your email and I'll send you a link next week. You won't need very many art supplies ( there will be a list in the link) and you can use lots of things you have at home.
Any questions let me know πΈ
Please feel free to share!
Happy Valentines to you!
β€οΈ You don't need any excuse to celebrate love, do it everyday!
β€οΈ Love yourself, your kids, your partner, your furbabies.....
β€οΈ I'm sending lots of love to you!!

Hello,
There have been some new people here of late so I thought I'd tell you what I do.....
There's a list π
πΈ I am a self taught mixed media artist. I paint little characters xalked Polly Dollies. They are sweet and whimsical and most have a message of encouragement.
πΈ I sell the Polly Dollies as limited edition prints, cushions, cards and stationery through some beautiful shops and at markets ( I love travelling around with my gazebo ready to pop up anywhere!)
πΈ I teach art classes to groups in either my home or I go to them. These have been for birthdays, hen parties, women on weekends away who want something different, for coporate events....... There are many reasons to get a gang together and book a class!
πΈ I write and illustrate children's books ( only one has been published so far, but the second one is nearly ready!)
πΈ I love being at home, dogs, books, coffee and cake, but hate cheese π«
πΈ What are your loves? I'm basically really nosey and want to know all about you! πβ€οΈ
It has been a week of looking at this painting and walking away from it, and that's OK. It's OK to do things slowly, in your own time.
But today she found her words and she is one step closer to being finished. β€οΈ
Wishing you all a very happy, healthy and peaceful 2024!
During all the markets I've done I am always asked the same two questions...
Is this all your own work? And, Do you have a Polly with blonde hair blue eyes?......
The answer to these questions was getting very long. So if you look in the linktree in my bio you'll find a whole brand new blog post about the answers.
Have a very lovely new years day,
Xxx
