Charley Harper

I'm not sure if I've written about Charley Harper before on here but I love his grahical illustrations and have been using a calendar full of them this year and have bought another for next year. I hope to frame the best ones from both eventually.

But anyway, there are Charley Harper childrens books and games and all sorts too but best of all, I've just come across a colouring book!
I don't think Oli's going to get much of a look in on this one.

Christmas sale

Well, as semi predicted, I haven't had much time at my work bench since becoming a mother and going back to work. So in the absence of any action from me or customers in my Etsy shop, I've decided to have a Christmas sale and sell off my few remaining pieces.

Whilst I definately believe that as a maker you have to be able to cover your costs and sell your goods at a sensible rate, whatever that is (a forever ongoing and interesting debate) I also understand that people will only spend what they can afford and what the market dictates. Therefore I'm going to slash the prices of my remaining resin pieces in the hope that they will find good homes and that by emptying the shop and clearing the decks I will be setting myself a fresh goal for the New Year and getting some NEW things made!
