New Beginnings!

It's been a couple of years since I set up here with a view to selling my  handmade cushions and accessories from vintage and upcycled fabrics, and selected hand picked items of vintage china, linens and embroideries, silk scarves, jewellery etc.

During that time I have been busy setting up and selling via my Etsy Shop, Facebook page and in person at fairs and in a shop.

I now plan to revive this space as another way of enabling you to buy my vintage and handmade items, so over the next few weeks I will be sharing a number of items for you to purchase here or via my Etsy Shop so please check back soon!

 

Etsy Shop!

ETSY SHOP

If you are interested in seeing what I make, please pop over to my Etsy Shop here where I have lots of goodies now for sale!

You'll find cushions of all sorts, mostly made from vintage and antique fabrics including Antique grain sack cushions; lavender bags, mangle cloth hearts, vintage white linen and lace hearts, pincushions, tea-stained ticking doves, bird hangers, and lots and lots more cushions!

I also make gingham cushions with chicken scratch embroidery, and patchwork cushions with embroidered hearts.

I am adding new stock constantly.
