It's all about the birds

Still bird crazy....so for this mini shop update (I wasn't sure I would get these done in time) I have made a few new Wall Birdies in little and tall and the very popular Birdy Vases are back! This last shop update for 2020 will be live on Sunday 29 November 2020 at 9.30am (Sydney Australia). Be there or be….

Shipping (one of the most used words this year)... Expect Covid shipping delays especially at this time of year. Overseas shoppers, these aren't likely to make it to you in time for Christmas but there's always delayed gratification and a happy making it to the end of 2020 reward. Thanks for your understanding and support!

Gift Giving Time

I’ve packed this shop update with plenty of options for gift giving and am hoping (fingers crossed) for timely overseas and domestic Christmas arrivals. So, these goodies go live on Sunday 8 November 2020 at 9.30am (Sydney Australia). Be there or be….

A word on shipping... Covid delays especially at this time of year make it super hard to guarantee pre Christmas arrivals which is why I am getting in early. Sadly no promises but fingers crossed. Thanks for your understanding and support!

Wallflower Vases at Bondi Wash

So grateful and excited to be part of Bondi Wash supporting artists…which means from 25 September till 10 October, I get to take over their Bondi and Paddington store windows. My Wallflower Vases, slipcast in white stoneware from organic hand made shapes and handpainted with navy underglaze, feature some of the beautiful Australian botanicals used in Bondi Wash products. Designed to hang on a wall in clusters or on their own, they come in three sizes: small, wide & tall. The neon rubber/wire hanger adds a pop of colour to the traditional blue of the botanical decoration. The vases are available for purchase directly from these 2 Bondi Wash stores and whatever’s left will be added to my online store after 10 October. If you don’t know Bondi Wash, check out their stuff…I am a huge fan of this great Aussie brand, which is exported all over the world. https://bondiwash.com.au/

Spring Fever

Here’s what’s new this spring month of August:

Under My Wing cup and spoon sets are new to the collection... these two nurture each other...they're also fine on their own but prefer to be together...friends. Perfect for a dessert or a frothy warm drink when you need a spoon nearby to scoop up the deliciousness on the top.

Birdy Vases are back! Slipcast with hand built add ons, these birdies are packed with character. Three coats of underglaze are applied so that the colours are solid and intense and the spot glaze is painted on as if it were an added colour, to highlight the contrast between matt and gloss. Much time is spent on the making, decorating  and finishing of these vases. It's functionality only adds to its value as an original ceramic object. (a limit of one birdy vase per person please)

You asked for yellow Corona Carers...and pink and white are back in stock (again due to limited numbers, no more than 2 Corona Carers per person)

Plus more Peep Lights, Birdy Juglets and small Vase Peeps

A word on shipping... It will come as no surprise that international shipping is taking longer than usual with fewer flights departing (for example, parcels to the US and Canada are taking 3-4 weeks) so please bear that in mind when ordering. Thanks for your support!

Be there or....
The listings will be live on Sunday morning 30 August at 9.30am (Sydney, Australia) Please check out World Clock for what that equates to in your part of the world. I know this time may be problematic for some people but I have to go with the best for multiple zones.

Be well and Enjoy

July Guys

Hey Hello...I am doing a timed shop update this month because so many people asked me to make more Corona Carers and I want to give everyone a fair chance of snagging one. Also to that end, I will have to limit purchases of these to no more that 2 per person (thanks for your understanding)

I was thrilled to know many of you are health workers yourselves and feel honoured that these little guys have resonated with you.

Also been crunching the Stan series Nurse Jackie and so love Zoey and her collection of cheerful scrubs that I have added Pink plus Hazmat orange to my latest batch of Corona Carers.

Am loving the addition of the crest on some of these NEW Birdy Vessels.

And for those of you housebound and having trouble getting out of your pyjamas there is a limited edition of Onesie Vases available, plus new Little Chick Juglets and Planter Guys to make use of at home.

Be there or....
The listings will be live on Sunday morning 19 July at 9.30am (Sydney, Australia) Please check out World Clock for what that equates to in your part of the world. It will come as no surprise that international shipping is taking longer than usual with fewer flights departing...so please bear that in mind when ordering.

March Madness

I’m not usually alarmist but I have to admit I have been wigging out lately. These are scary times and maybe I’ve read a few too many novels that begin with a global pandemic…I have though, found a lot of solace in making, both ceramics and crochet and bright colours also help lift the spirits. So, I'm going ahead with things as usual with a few new pots to make you smile this month. Check them out via the link below. Shop update next Tuesday 24 March at 9.30am (Sydney, Australia)

New year, new work

I've been working on new things this year plus a few variations of some old favourites. Thanks to everyone who helped me choose colours for the Wallflower hangers. Orange and hot pink won out! (sorry if you chose blue) The speckled stoneware vessels are a small series of works, in which the added coloured shapes suggest a human or animal character. These vessels, although more abstract in nature, still convey warmth, humour and personality. Check out what will be online on Wednesday 26 February at 9.30am (Sydney, Australia) via the button below

December colour!

I can’t believe December has arrived and I’m ready for my final shop update for the year. Check out what’s new via the preview button below and be online next Tuesday 10 December at 9.30am …that’s Sydney Australia time…so you will need to consult World Clock on you smart phone for what that equates to in your part of the world. Apologies if the time doesn't suit but I have had to go with the best for multiple zones. Sadly, I can’t guarantee pre Christmas delivery for overseas orders but am counting on Australia Post to deliver domestic orders in time. Fingers crossed. I will be taking all of January off to rest and recharge and get inspired for 2020. Thank you all for your support this year, its been a big one!

I have loaded up the shop with small and big Vase Peeps, Peep lights in all three sizes and loads of colours, Kitty & Guy planters, Mug Mugs, Birdy Juglets and new Mini Platters in a variety of patterns.
