Today’s Sunday Studio visit is focusing on my Etsy shop.
I have a great array of handcrafted gifts in my shop which make great alternative Easter gifts! You can also place a custom order for both tableware or jewellery pieces.
Speaking of custom orders, tomorrow I will be posting a yarn bowl which was custom ordered for the colours the customer preferred. I think it turned out great. The yarn bowl is a gift for the customer’s mums birthday, and I think she will like it!
Readers may remember from previous posts some plates I made impressed with pumpkin leaves from my garden … well these are now live on ETSY. I have listed a dinnerware set which is available as a single setting, or other custom quantities, four place settings for example. Coming soon will be plate size sets – four side plates, for example.
Pumpkin leaves are only available in my garden from November to April (approximately), so at other times of the year the plates will be available with other seasonal leaf imprints.
I also have other pumpkin leaf imprint items in my shop, such as these:
And on Friday I sent this pumpkin leaf plate off to a new home in Melbourne – a mere 100km from where I live!
And speaking of pumpkin leaves and garden produce I have been busy again this week preserving gods from the garden!! Today it was fermented cucumbers, bottled tomatoes and apple paste, which I can’t wait to taste with blue cheese!!
Well, that’s it for today – I will hope to catch up mid week 🙂
love the dinner plates – they turned out great… seasonal decoration to go with seasonal food?

Posted by Dawn Whitehand | March 28, 2017, 2:46 pmDawn, those plates you’ve designed imprinted w/ the pumpkin leaves are so stunning. I’ve enjoyed following along all of your posts on Insta and FB even though I have been away from WordPress on an extended break. I also want to thank you for your lovely feedback and commentary through all the years on my 5th anniversary of blogging! Your lovely blogs have always been a constant source of inspiration (and lovely eye candy!) Going to flip through the zillions of posts I’ve missed!
Posted by artdoesmatter | April 8, 2017, 12:07 amthanks Patricia – yes you have inspired me to look up how long I have been blogging – albeit, not as often lately as usual!
Posted by Dawn Whitehand | April 8, 2017, 12:41 amActually – I was JUST thinking this morning how of all my “veteran” blogger friends, you’ve been the absolutely most consistent (and successful!) You genuinely inspire me to continue to write and make more artwork. Please continue! 🙂
Posted by artdoesmatter | April 8, 2017, 1:01 amOh wow, thanks so much Patricia, much appreciated 🙂
Posted by Dawn Whitehand | April 8, 2017, 1:04 amWell, further to the above – my first blog post was September 2011 – wow!
I have been enjoying your IG and other SM posts over the years to Patricia, and your comments and feedback 🙂
