xmas eve

it's xmas eve and we were hoping for snow today ....
maybe if we wish hard enough, we will wake up xmas morning
to a beautiful snowy white wonderland
{we'll let you know}

in the meantime, it's been lovely & sunny today but so chilly,
everything feels cold and still and blue .....




thankyou for all your support this year
and we will see you in 2010.

have a beautiful xmas & new years

our last posting days for xmas


here are our last posting days for xmas:



for posting outside of the uk,

the weekend



a huge thankyou to everyone that came to visit
us at the weekend.
we hadn't opened our studio at xmas time before
and were a little worried that if the weather
was bad we wouldn't get that many visitors.

but the sun came out and it was a lovely fresh winter weekend.
we made mince pies, little lemon biscuits &
orange with cinnamon bicsuits and mulled wine
which everyone enjoyed.



lots of xmas presents were brought - our leaf lanterns,
oak chopping/serving boards, reclaimed cornish slate mirrors,
oak tea-light blocks, reclaimed cornish slate clocks
& more - so we had a really successful weekend.



the xmas open studio was our last event of this year
but you can still buy from our website {here}
or buy our work from exhibitions {here}

thanks again to everyone that visited!
