Alison Strachan

At the Scottish Trade Fair this year I was drawn to Alison Strachan's stand. She lives in Fife but originally comes from the north west Highlands. She creates beautiful vibrant art using pastels on card. The colours are so bright & yet not gaudy, I just had to have some.

Eastfield Designs

Recently I found the most amazing woodturner & he's sent me the most beautiful bowls & spurtles to try out in the shop. The quality is amazing & as they are all handmade, each & every one is completely unique so you can buy a one of a kind gift for someone.

Shoes for all!

My name is Laura & I am a shoe addict! These are my latest buy,Babyshocks. The name is a mix of babyshoe & socks, & that's exactly what they are. Soft like socks but with flexible, grippy sole & toes they are just perfect for babies who are crawling or just starting to walk. They are machine washable & have the most adorable baby powder smell.

Oh Dear

Oh me, I really need to get back to updating the blog. Christmas just all of a sudden happened, then, for the sake of my sanity I took January off & had a wee holiday, now I'm back to the grind, have been buying some lovely new stuff, hopefully get it all posted.
