On the Forth Day of a BrisStyle Christmas

Day number four is full of beautiful bits and bobs for the little ones. Maybe mine aren't so little any more but if they were I'm sure some of these goodies would have been much loved. Lovely slippers - for real little fairies of course, toys to cuddle, paper dolls to play with and the sweetest card ever to dress them all up for the perfect gift giving.

On the Third Day of a BrisStyle Christmas

Day three of my wish list is full of pretty things to dress little ones up, sweet clips, lovely places to sit and play, brooches to dress up ones shirt and very cool retro tags to pop on the presents wrapped under the tree.

Dreaming of a BrisStyle Handmade Christmas

Only 12 sleeps to go until the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market! In celebration of the impending handmade Christmas shopping goodness I am going to do a 12 days of Christmas list of some of the lovelies from each of the stall holders. So on the first day of Christmas I hope Santa brings to Little Mary Moo's Place:

Woodcut Iron Lace Print by Flight Industries

Red Orbs - Ocean Jasper Sterling Silver Wire Wrapped Pendant by RocknWrap

Elephant Stuffie by P Byers Design

To Market to Market

Yet again another market post. Lots and lots or purse making going on. Below is a little snippet of what you will be able to find at my stall at the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market on the 5th of December. (EEK... less than two weeks to go!)

A small purse with the lovely Lara Cameron's house print.

The two purses above are from the hand screen printed textile range by Umbrella Prints. This is the first time I have had the pleasure of using their lovely fabric. The prints are beautiful and the fabric has such fantastic structure for purse making. Also a a little side note Umbrella Prints also give the most fantastic personalised service too. The girls even made me special little cards for the purses too.

These are my "big boys". A little larger than my usual range. Perfect for cosmetics and the likes.

Above is a print from Blue Ginger Designs that I am eagerly awaiting the arrival in the post. The cats are so sweet. I love have they have been captured in their cat poses.

Last but not least is the new yardage textile range from Flower Press. I have brought a few of Flower Press's tea towels in the past. I am so chuffed that now there is a textile range to play with too. The yardage is not quite ready yet but you can pre order through Flower Press's etsy shop here.

BIDM Banner

Today my custom made banner arrived for the BrisStyle Market. I am so excited. I have had the absolute pleasure of working with the very talented etsy seller Love Letter Collage in the design of my banner. Nothing was too much trouble and the banner was designed just the way I wanted it and all in super quick time too. I think anyone who has the patience for that kind of fiddly work is amazing. The letters get pegged up simply on string. I am hoping the dark blue colours will contrast nicely against the white table cloth. Check out another of Love Letter Collage's other beautiful work bellow.

Moo enlightened me this morning that it is wise not to skip with a slinky. Okay, thanks for that little bit of valuable advice.
