Comic Relief


After last night's episode of Famous, Rich and in the Slums I have decided to make a special album on my Facebook page Where you can buy the item and I will donate all the proceeds minus postage to Comic Relief.

Hopefully those who would like to make a donation will see something they might like and know that apart from giving to fantastic cause, they will get something in return so doubling the feel good factor!

Check out my album and remember new items will be added right up to Red Nose Day!!

Crafts for Charity Directory

Mick from Shpangle Jewellery has created a new Art and Craft Directory that also gives to Charity.
Some of you may have noticed this button on my blog and website and wondered what it was all about.
Arts & Crafts Directory - Crafts for Charity
You can enter your website or blog page or both or your online shop listing by simply making a donation to your favourite charity that is listed or contact Mick to find out if you can add your Charity to the list.
Instead of paying big companies for advertising fees, you are giving your money to a good cause and joining lots of other fabulous crafters and artisans.

This is a new project and needs help and support in spreading the word!!
Please tweet, facebook and blog to tell your friends and fellow crafts people.
Thanks! :-))

Eyefund Scarves

The Eyefund has expanded their range of goods to include these fabulous pure silk scarves!!




They are available from my Folksy shop and all proceeds will go directly the Eyefund.

What is the Eye Fund?

Can you imagine not being able to see?? I need glasses to see in the distance and I struggle a bit with that!!! As an arts and crafts person, I would not like to think what it would be like to lose my sight!

The Eye Fund - A charity to support people losing their vision

The Eye Fund aims to provide much needed counselling and aid to those who are losing their sight due to degenerative diseases, such as Retinal Cone Dystrophy, Cataracts, Diabetic Retinopathy, Retinitis Pigmentosa, Neurological Visual Impairment, Retinopathy of Prematurity as well as Age-Related Degeneration and other eye conditions.

All the artwork is designed by Simon Sherry and his story is at the above website

Please support if you can!!

The Eye Fund aims to provide much needed counselling and aid to those who are losing their sight due to degenerative diseases.
All the pictures you see in these items of Jewellery were designed by Simon Sherry, who you can read about on the Eye Fund website - Here

Here is a selection of some of the Jewellery that are part of my range for The Eye Fund.



All the items are available from my website and lots more too. Items will be made to order and the images can mixed and matched, so if you see a pendant that you like and would prefer the image as cufflinks, then I can do those for you.
Please just contact me.
All the profits from these items will be going directly to The Eye Fund and helping people who are losing their sight.
Please support this worthy cause and pass on this message via your blogs, facebook, twitter, etc.
Many thanks for reading!

Button Galore!!!

After making this 1st Bracelet, I went off to some local Charity shops in the search for more Buttons and I ended buying in the region of 10,000!!!

Thought I must get work with them and made this rather sunny one, which I must say, I am very pleased with!!

Have used about 40 buttons for this one, so not sure what I going to do with the other 9,960!!!


More to come I would imagine!! These 2 are available to purchase at my MISI shop.
