my first front page

... on Etsy. Of course I missed it but lovely Kala grabbed a screenshot for me. That's my Artisan dress top right .  I am stupidly excited about having been on FP - I heart Etsy!

Lovely day, lovely boot sales

.... and lots of lovely boot sale goodies! 

I had a great time in the sun and found formica kitchen tables, wonderful paintings of poodles, a dressmakers dummy and these fabulous fairies!

Custom wiggle dress

I just finished this custom order wiggle dress and had to take a quick shot of it before taking it to the post office.

I just love the vintage cotton 'Horrocks' sheep in the woods fabric.

This version has cute little sleeves - Hmmm .... I think I will do some more with sleeves.

bunting and fairy cakes

This weekend at our site started in a flurry of gorgeous bunting .... and gorgeous girls!

All set to celebrate Anouska's up-coming nuptials (congrats!). It's a surprise and here's how the girls decked out the bride-to-be's trailer. 

All this and a fairy cake delivery at 9am the next day? That's what you call good friends :-)

Another quiet night at 'the spy'....

We were out last night celebrating Charlotte's B day - another quiet night in Ventnor, we all took our crochet :-)

We are V lucky on the Isle to have many talented musicians. The Spyglass Inn on Ventnor Esplanade always have live music on and last night we saw one of our favourites JC & Angelina. 

It hopped.

I am trying to shop local and buy handmade :-)

It's not all that easy though is it? ...... even when you live on the beautiful Isle and we have so much local lovelyness. I must try harder!

I thought this print was cool - from Linzie Hunter's gorgeous flickr collections.

We all need more ....

Hats. No question.

I have discovered so many inspiring must-haves via wonderful Etsy 

First up for May is the hugely talented Ms KankalinHats
