U.S customers, my miniature paintings are exempt from tariffs, so the postage remains much the same!

Just dropped some of these cute mini lime dishes into my Etsy store. They are super cute and about the actual size of a cross section of lime. Great gift for cocktail lovers.

This chap is looking for a home. I firmly believe some of us need a hare friend, and if anyone tells you you don't, I'd question if they have your best interests at heart... 😉

In Celtic folklore, the wren is known as a "king of the birds". It represents the old year where its symbolic capture on St. Stephen's Day cleansed the community for the new year. In a Christian-influenced tale, the wren is portrayed as betraying St Stephen and bringing misfortune.

An original one of a kind watercolour artwork of a wren, soon to be available from my shop.
