Influences
The last few weeks have been very hectic. With relief I noticed that in recent days there was more space for thought and with that came new designs. There were several influences at work:
William Morris and William de Morgan tubelined tiles,
Silver and enamel tubelined waterlily necklace
a spot of Gertrude Gekyll,
Silver fuchsia necklace
Tiny silver garden necklace
…and the swagger of John Wayne.
In the last week the littlest P has learnt to walk.
Get off your trike and drink your milk.

Just scoured your shop looking for those GORGEOUS pcs and can’t find ‘em
Availability? Price?
ps: John Wayne never swaggered so good!

Well hey there pilgrims, make my milk a double.
loving your influences, think my bestest is the fuschia.

So cute. I love the little ‘frankestein’ walk that they all start off with!

I just adore the look of grim determination. Hang on in there, Tiny P, you will be on Strictly before your Ma and Pa know what is happening.

Lovely new necklaces…. especially like the garden one.

Hi, what a lovely post! Congratulations on the first precious tottering steps little Miss P.
Have you beautifully smooth silky walls? I think you are definately a Toast lady………… I am visualising you in those lovely red felt slippers and rather yummy welsh blanket as we speak!
So weird about your sister! Is she sad to leave or ready to come home? I probably passed her in the street and didn’t even realise! Strange coincidences.
Lovely new pieces too, clever you,

Oh, go, go Little Pebble!
I’ve been thinking of you this week and wondering how you are. I’m hoping to make a flying bead visit to Haddenham this week or next - can I tempt you?

The Hare and Fuschia are fabulous designs. I like very much. Walking - a good phase in some ways not so good when they learn to run fast the opposite direction to you though.
Our last house was woodchip everywhere. We left one wall to punish the new owners as hideous stuff to remove. Pulled one lot away and the wall came with it so we could see the tree outside. Fun stuff.

I had to wait to view this on the laptop - bet there was a sound track too if only the speakers worked!
You go girl, Miss P2! She looks so excited
Saw some lovely William de Morgan and William Morris designs in Birmingham - a fabulous museum.

Love the lilies, in fact love them all including the swaggering little one.
Stairgates at the ready!

I love the fuchsia, so pretty, and that swagger is quite something. Adorable!

Ohhhh….just look at her go! What a very clever baby girl
Gorgeous necklaces - I love the one inspired by the tiles. What a very clever grown-up girl

Congratulations to your littlest pebble! There must be something going round at the moment - my littlest one has finally decided to go for it on her own too!
