I don't often rant and I know that imitation is supposed to be the sincerest form of flattery but to the person who is copying my sign writing graphics ......please do your own research instead of picking it straight off my photos! The "Arsenic and Blue Vitriol" was a dead give away😡

Here is one of my most recent projects ready to find a new home. I have noticed a trend for the arcane and witchy and I thought I would create something for someone to store all of their weird, spooky and wonderous possessions. The cabinet is 60" tall,18" wide and 12" deep with 4 moveable shelves. It has a lock but even though I haven't found a key for it, the catch works to keep the door closed.The script is hand painted as always on the reverse of the glass. Now available at £135 SOLD

I thought you might like to see some of the pieces I have created recently for my fabulous friend Helen of Evolve Flowers. These have all been used as props at various shows to give a background for her wonderful floral demonstrations and creations. I love to work so freely, there are usually no restrictions just an order to "go for it" ! The shutters were left totally to me and as we had echinacea flowering right outside the workshop, they provided the perfect inspiration.

Another shot of the Cabinet of curiosities showing the interior. I should have also mentioned that it has the original lock and a key which works and I have to say that is a small miracle! SOLD

Here's a before and after of a pair of very ordinary end tables that I was given to work on. I have to say that I am very happy with the way they worked out.

Here's a new item that I have just completed and I think it looks very pleasing.I usually remove the legs and add a plinth but in this case I chose to keep them and add a little gold embellishment. I removed the mirror part but as you can see, it could be easily reattached. Now available.

Can finally share this! This is what Helen and I did in 4 ( pretty intensive) days back in April🤪😁Thanks to Sam at Royals Gym for asking us to help with this fantastic project, we loved every minute.
