New designs




well where to start.......

one of the big problems i face is constantly coming up with new designs and new items to pop into the shop

i have what i call my bread and butter items but i like to experiment and see how much i am capable of

so i had some MDF boards cut to make notice boards and began painting the base colour but wasn't too happy as that all seemed a little too easy to me, oh i shall do some like that but i am really into this vintage thing at the moment so i thought i would decoupage them with images from the Victorian era and maybe around the 1940's too as that was an interesting time in fashion as women really started to have a say i think in dress length and design...revolutionary i think

so at the moment they are a working progress but should be finished in a couple of days so check back for a peek
