Weasel in a Teacup Art Market

I am doing more markets than usual this year and I am VERY excited about it! You will find me and my wares at the Weasel in a Teacup Christmas Art Market in Colchester on Saturday. I've never done this market before so i'm really pleased to be involved and I hear there is Mulled wine and cake so that can't be bad can it?

Come and visit me if you are a ready and coming to the event, i'd love to meet you and i'm sure you'll love the market.

The St Peter's Street Market!

Last weekend was the 3rd annual I Make Fun Stuff Christmas Market on St Peter's Street in Ipswich. If you are regularly readers you will know that I organise this event so I have the biased opinion that it is the best craft and vintage market there is! (Of course I do!)

We were very lucky with the weather, no rain, a slight breeze and loads of bright sunshine. We started to get a bit cold around 3:00 but it's November, you can't complain!

I had a very successful day and sold lots of bits and pieces so I was really chuffed. I even sold one of my new circle necklaces! Below are some pictures from my stall and some more circle necklaces which aren't currently in my shops yet. There are however two available in my Etsy shop! So go check them out.

St Peter's Street Christmas Market

The next in the fabulous St Peter's Street Markets from I Make Fun Stuff! We have 34 stalls selling a range of exciting products from handmade jewellery to artwork to vintage homeware to vintage clothes and so food thrown in for good measure!

It will be one hell of a Christmas bash! Come on down and make a day of it.

NEW! from Hello Pushkin!

A selection of photos of my new jewellery pieces. These will debut at the St Peter's Street Christmas Market in Ipswich on Sunday 18th November.

More necklaces and brooches to come. Comments and feedback very gratefully received.

New technique. New jewellery!

The last few weeks I've been using some new techniques for me. I've wanted to work with wood for jewellery for ages, I've done some laser cutting and some screen printing. Now I'm on to painting. Ideally I'd like to be cutting shapes from screen printed wood but its near on impossible to cut circles with a scroll saw and it's all about circles for me.

So here is my latest creation using paint on pre cut wooden circles. As always I'm sticking to the bright colours and adding some other bits and pieces in there like coloured o-rings (love these!)

Ill hopefully have some in the shops soon but if not they will debut at the St Peter's Street Christmas Market. More on that soon!

Please let me know what you think.

Hot Hot Hot! Market Weekend

It's been a while since I last had a stall at a market but i've only just uploaded the photos with the madness that has been work recently. So here are some pics of my stall and my products from the I Make Fun Stuff Maritime Weekender Market on 18th and 19th August. It was a very hot few days!

Some of these products aren't available in the shops currently so if you're interested just comment or pop me an email to hello@hellopushkin.co.uk

Doodling patterns

It's been a busy few weeks and so I've been missing in action! Apologies to all as I'd just got back into blogging again after too long an absence.

I don't know that work is going to get any less busy, we've been preparing for this year's intake of students. They start on timetable in just over a week so things won't quieten down so I need to pull my finger out and keep the momentum up.

The picture shows some random doodling I did on brown paper to wrap some presents in. It was good to do as I've felt a bit blank for ideas and just some patterns on a page have reminded me to mess around once in a while. There will be more to come!
