Welcome to our website.

We are living in strange times, and we count ourselves fortunate to be able to continue communicating with friends and family, even if we can't give them a physical hug. 

We're not booking any physical fayres at the moment, but we hope to be back out 'on the road' before Christmas. If you'd like us to come along to your event just drop an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we'll see what we can do. We have tried a few Virtual Fayres - follow us on Facebook to find out where we'll pop up next.

The on-line store is up and running, and we are stocking it with more goodies each month. You can see some of our latest listings in the shop at the head of this page - just click to go directy to the shop.

You can also find us here on Facebook.

 

Xmas Tree 1901If you want a small Christmas tree...

... here's your opportunity to have a tree that will fit on your desk at work, around the base of your main Christmas Tree, or maybe on your window ledge.

We make these trees from 4 pieces of hand-cut glass - two for the tree and two for the trunk. The coloured glass is laid out as the base, and clear glass is laid on top, with a wire staple sandwiched between the two layes at the foot of the trunk. Fully fusing the piece causes the pieces to melt together to become a single piece of glass, with the wire firmly embedded in the trunk. The wooden base is drilled and the completed tree is glued in place.

These tXmas Tree 1902rees come in a variety of colour combinations and are 7 to 8 cm in height and are mounted on a real wood base.

 If you'd like something that has a little more sparkle built in, then try these beauties. They are very similar to the trees above, but are made from Dichroic glass (glass coated with a  metallic film). They are slightly shorter as they don't have a trunk.

We'll come back to you with the cost of the item and P&P options.

Due to the way in which glass moves when heated, and because all pieces are hand cut, each of our pieces are unique.
