A little colour study

Compiling a list of colour combinations 

- thought I would share My Water Baby Sketch!

Homegrown Beauties Part 3

Have you come across Rosie's Rags Craft Kits?

Sarah designs handmade embroidery kits and crafts 

that would be great fun to do and pleasing to look at afterwards. 

 Freebird is my favourite.

I love you Kit - simple and lovely :)

Homegrown Beauties Part 2

This is the Green Goose Gallery. 

(It had me at Green Goose) 

Magaret's work is ethereal and delicate, with splashes of intense colour. 

She adds slight textures to her work to give the print an extra dimension. 

 Venice Print

Seagrass Print

 Howth Harbour, Dublin Print

For €25, wouldn't they make a lovely gift for someone away from home? 

Homegrown Beauties

So, our most Irish of Irish Days is approaching. 

This week on the run up to St Patrick's Day, I thought I'd have a little look through Etsy Ireland
so we could all ooh and ahh over the creative bunch that live on this beautiful tiny Island. 

I absolutely LOVE my oilcloth lunch bag from Sweetman Designs. 

I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I truly use it everyday I'm in the studio. 

And they are only €12.50! 

We really can't have too many cute bags, can we?

Catherine Sweetman is an extremely talented seamstress 

who makes everyday practical items so pretty. 

How cute is this Ipad 2 Cover?

Happy Mother's Day, Girls!

Thank you all for your support and encouragement! 

Enjoy this free printable from me to you.
