FOR CAMELLIA FANS!

 CAMELLIA  HEAVEN!









 

I just had to post these beautiful Camellias which we saw at Wollaton Hall in Nottingham.  They have a Camellia House absolutely full of every colour you can think of. 

It is well worth a visit along with the 500 acre Deer Park.   The whole thing is free along with the Natural History Museum and all you have to pay for is the £2 parking for the whole day which is pretty good!

Go along and enjoy!







 

Wooden Jewellery

Wood and Antique Bronze Necklet and Bracelet

This is a new venture for us as we 'branch' out (sorry for the pun!) into making wooden jewellery.  All of the wooden discs are hand made here by Chris and all interlinked with bronze rings on toggle and bar fastener.  We will hopefully be adding new designs soon.

FIRST  SNOWDROPS  OF  THE  YEAR

I just love snowdrops and photographed these
lovely specimens at Felley Priory, Nottinghamshire last week so they are really quite early ones.
They always cheer me up as I know Spring is just around the corner now!  

FELLEY  PRIORY  HOUSE

A Troupe of Toadstools

Sherwood Originals

 was launched last month with the making of these

lovely little hand carved

 wooden toadstools made here in our workshop.

A Troupe of Toadstools

So far we have a choice of three designs, with the

dome, pointed or triangular shaped tops.

If wanted they come with moss and little ladybird or

hedgehog which are very cute

but I personally like them 'au naturelle'!

Wooden Discs

Also available are these wooden discs, either plain or stamped with leaves, flowers,etc.

which would make useful keyrings or tag markers. 

'Hoot' the Owl

'HOOT'  THE  OWL

Introducing 'Hoot' the owl who is now living in Devon among some orchids. 

He migrated in mid December from the Nottinghamshire countryside

and has settled in very well to his new home.

Large hole beads

Pandora style or European beads as they are sometimes called are very popular so I thought I would show a selection of these large hole beads available at the moment. 

There is a lovely selection of colours to choose from

and they are all hand made lampwork glass.                          

Metal ones are all Tibetan silver.

 
So affordable

to add to your own collection or for a friend maybe?
