Etsy Shop now live!

After a long time thinking about it, I’ve finally loaded some of my products onto my Etsy shop! Since injuring my arm while making my heavy driftwood items, I’ve not been making anything recently and have had to turn down lots of commissions. I still have a few smaller items left in stock so I...

Sea Glass and St Ives

Every time I come down to St Ives in Cornwall, one of my favourite things is to go hunting for sea glass! With some of the nicer pieces I make pendants which I sell in my online shop here. There’s a beach down here with an abundance of sea glass in all colours and it...

Driftwood Mirror with Sea Glass and Sea Shells

I have now finished my latest driftwood project which is a driftwood mirror now on sale in my shop here. This driftwood and sea glass has been collected from beaches in West Wales during this winter.

Driftwood Christmas Trees!

I am starting to design some driftwood products for Christmas and have started with the classic driftwood Christmas tree. These would look great as table centres on the Christmas table, decorated with tiny cute decorations.

Coastal Hanging Garlands bring that lovely seaside feel into the home

I love making things using lots of different media. That’s why I particularly enjoyed making these five Coastal Hanging Garlands. Each one has a clay heart printed with lace and embellished with lovely old beads. Each one is then hung from a string of lovely things that I have found beach combing in Wales and...

My Fab Finds: Large Scale Driftwood Mirror

I love collecting driftwood and making decorative and practical things from it. I also like to look at things other people have made from driftwood. Pinterest is the best way of doing this for me, and I follow many boards that pin images of driftwood art and anything and everything made from driftwood. Today I...
