Ginger Piggery

As from July my work is available at the Black Barn Gallery, at the Ginger Piggery at Boyton, in the beautiful Wylye Valley, near Warminster.
The Black Barn houses the work of some twenty five artists and crafts people, and is open from 10-5 Wednesday to Saturday. The Ginger Piggery itself has a restaurant and shop selling their award winning products, as well as their Tamworth pigs on site.

Leaf soap dishes

These leaf soap dishes have be created for sale at the Woodfair at the Larmer Tree, Cranborne Chase the weekend of 8th/9th October, and the autumn Craft event at Stourhead 22nd/23rd October. Again they will be sold with soaps supplied by Jane Maddern.

Christmas soap dishes

I've just created some holly soap dishes which I will be selling with Christmas soaps made for me by Jane Maddern. The holly leaves without drainage holes will be sold with berry scented tea lights, or can be used as spoon rests, etc.

Soap dishes 2011

During May I met up with Jane Maddern at Stourhead who makes the most amazing goats' milk soaps - beautifully presented and wrapped in fabric. She has created a range of soaps for me to sell with my soap dishes, and I am making her dishes for her to sell with her soaps at trade fairs and on line. This has really inspired me to extend my range of soap dishes.

Gallery changes 2011

There are a few gallery changes for 2011.
The Acanthus Gallery in Wareham is under new management and new premises - my work is no longer available there, but still available at the Creative Gallery, St. John's Hill, Wareham.
Place Mill on the Quay in Christchurch will no longer be manned during summer months by the Council due to cut backs - however my work in now on display and for sale from the Christchurch Tourist Information Centre in the High Street - which is open all year round.
The Trowbridge Gallery in Tunbridge Wells has become their clearance outlet and are therefore no longer stocking my work.
