Set the World on Fire...

Made lots of candles for the upcoming craft market!

Birdhouses, sewing box and key holders

Caught up with lots of painting, misting and decoupage....

Inspired by earthy colours of brown and terracotta

Quilted cushions

I bought these lovely panels from New York and decided to make quilted cushions for sale at the craft market.

A friend popped by and fell in love with all of them and decided to buy one. So guess I'd have to replenish my stock for the market.

I cross stitched Paddington bear and his duck before attaching it to the patchwork cushion.

Hearts and Love

Christmas is all about love and God touching people's hearts. So here are some of my projects for the Christmas craft bazaar.

Mixed Media

Went for a workshop in Cork and tried my hand at mixed media. Ruins and monasteries tell me stories. So standing at the alcove of a monastery opens up another world altogether - the great Abbey of Mellifont, in County Louth, was the first Cistercian abbey to be built in Ireland. Founded in 1142 on the orders of Saint Malachy, Archbishop of Armagh, Mellifont Abbey sits on the banks of the River Mattock, some ten km (6 miles) north-west of Drogheda.

                                      Tried my hand at gesso paint and pigments...love the result!
