I’ve been having a day off with my son and grandkid today. Much needed joy.
I can’t believe that the Yule collection has all gone already! This is all that’s left now plus one clock case. Nice to have a few things left but then I should make more but then
Argh the overthinking of a craftsperson!

A day for getting cosy with your slippers and mince pie and a cuppa.
Imagine this vintage clock case scene on your bookcase, lit up twinkling cosy next to the Christmas tree and you in your slippers with a cuppa. Cosy joy!

Buffet types.
Which are you?
I can’t promise they’ll share their cake haul with you, but they might make you smile. Imagine having them on your Yule buffet table!

“I think we’ve got enough hawthorn berries for the jam now, what’s next?”
“Cheese! All the cheese!”
Mouse is hoping for a home with someone who also buys ALL the cheese for Christmas.
Badger says they’ll bring hawthorns for jam to their new home

Artic Fox loves to sneak away for a bit of peace and quiet with a slice of Yule log or two.
Fox is looking for someone who likes to sit in the kitchen with the dogs at Yule to share his Yule log with. Or if you like a party, he’s happy to scoff it all! www.celestineandthehare.com/new-collecti...

‘Daddy I found these lead curtain weights and although they make the envelope very fat and heavy & might cost them extra postage I thought I could write some nice words on them to remind Mr Reform that we like kindness here in Wales &no bigots & he’d appreciate that? Do you think he reads Welsh?’

Today there is Weasel Friday
Everything just the price it should be.
I charge a fair price all year. If you need a new washing machine go for it, but otherwise billionaires have enough, support small business, craftspeople and artists where you can -we appreciate it!
Yule collection tomorrow!

Sometimes as an artist you wake up with an itch that needs to be scratched So I was up early painting night skies gilded with real silver for a star gazing mouse. Last minute final addition to the Yule collection on Saturday.
A reminder to dream and of hope inspired by my book The Wish Gatherers

White Shrew came out with a candle to light the way for the Northlanders. They’d soon be here and the days were getting darker. Shrew thought of the bright lights and feasting to come, warming with the thought in the chill winter wind.
