Showcasing the raw materials of a map lampshade today - think of this post as a TV test card as I'm actually away for a few days. I'd show you a map location but I didn't think that far ahead 😁

Tweaking and reordering my business cards, I think it's time for an updated logo, spot the little lampshade I've popped in there...

Taking a break from lampshade making and updating my Etsy shop with other makes today, namely these rather comfy handmade lounge shorts. Which wouldn't look out of place on the beach either! And yes, that is me modelling in the last 2 pics, I couldn't give a stuff what others think of my legs, I'm lucky to have a pair that work ☺️

All packaged up and ready to go off on its final journey to a new home ❤️ The thing I love about old maps is looking at the creases and worn spots on the surface, imagining what sort of pre-satnav journeys they've been taken on... and how many in-car disagreements they've witnessed 😂

Next up on my workdesk is a bespoke lamp order featuring a foreign place...well, it's not Wales anyway!

My storefront on Etsy is bursting with map lamps and shades. I've had a listing frenzy today and there is still more to come! Where would you like to explore next?

What a great weekend at Swansea! Thankyou to everyone who came and chatted, admired, bought, took a business card...fellow traders who lent me their electricity...and of course huge thanks to John and Kevin of for organising another super event at the waterfront museum.
Exhausted with all the activity and taking an inbetween day today, but wasn't too pooped when we got home last night to enjoy my new obsession of an M&S bao bun 😋 Reckon I could make a cushion that looks like a bao bun? 🤔
