Updates

Sorry, sorry, sorry.  I seem to always start my posts with an apology.
Things have been busy and I still have my trusty, more like annoyingly slow, computer to try and deal with when it comes to my on line presence.  I know, I should use my phone to post but in all honesty, I'm just a bit rubbish at remembering.  If you really do miss me then you can always follow Bee Designs on Facebook, I'm not too bad at posting things on there :)
This weekend I have been busy updating the website, including a new look gallery and lots of goodies in the on line shop, all the items above are available to buy now with free shipping on all cards.
I'm off now to make my big sisters birthday card, or do you think I can get away with buying one?!!

Back again

Sorry......again.  I know, I keep disappearing from here but it doesn't mean I've forgotten about Bee Designs.  I tend to spend most of my time on Facebook so if you want to keep up to date with what i'm doing you can follow me here.
I have been busy since I was last on here, honest.  Making and photographing and here's a few things to prove it.

Window shopping

I've been feeling unwell today and so after work and a sleep on the sofa I thought I'd try and cheer myself up by going on line window shopping.  There's so many things I would love to buy for my new house but most will have to wait, so window shopping it is for now.  

Below are a few of the pieces of art I've been eyeing up for some time.

Dandelion Clock - By Charlie's Hand

Chihuahua and Sara portrait - Holli

Bunny Rabbit Print - Corella Design

Back to work

Time to get back into making mode now the house move is done and tomorrow is the first craft fair in a while. I have just enough stock to take with me to 'Handmade in Leicestershire' at Belgrave Hall, Leicester 11am-3.30pm.
Until I'm back with new ideas and designs I'll leave you with a few pictures from my instagram feed.

Pretty fireplaces

After what seems like forever, I finally moved into my new house on Friday.
As you can imagine, I am now spending most of the day searching through boxes trying to find a particular something, while trying to unpack in a somewhat organised way.
One thing I did today, besides unpacking, was to but a vase that would fit into the bedroom fireplace. I hadn't planned to fill it with a vase until the cat almost disappeared up the chimney, fingers crossed he can't squeeze past.

Times of change

 

Sorry for being so quiet around here over the last week or so, I've recently found out I need to move house due to my landlord needing to sell.  For those of you who know me, you'll know how much I love where I live and wont be surprised to hear I'm incredibly upset by this. On the positive side I will be looking to buy somewhere that will be substantially bigger than where I am currently, here I compromised on the space for the location.

One thing that I love here is how close I am to Wistow Rural Centre.  Three weeks ago Wistow Gallery opened there and if you love quality handcrafted goods then it's the place for you.  Soon you'll find Bee Designs products stocked there too.

If you can't wait till then, why not pop by Makers Mart at The Curve, Leicester this Saturday from 12 - 8pm.  Hope to see you then.

Out of the mist

What a fantastic week we've had. Beautiful sunshine and warmth in March. Today the weather has started to turn and it sounds like next week will be back to normal.
This morning as I left the house I got to see the sun rising above the fields of mist and couldn't resist capturing the moment.
