christmas is coming

and the elves need some name badges.

i met the wonderfully energetic and inspiring tricia fox of volpa at the recent wild gathering launch event.

anyways, we got talking, as you do, and tricia asked if i would be interested in creating name badges for the elves in santa's grotto at the st john's shopping centre in perth. as you can imagine, i jumped at the chance! and now the elves are busily working away in santa's grotto happy with their new badges.

thank goodness

for a wood burning stove!

just the thing to dry off those last minute tree decorations so that i can bead them in time for my last stall this year.

as part of the perth 800 celebrations, there will be an andermass / christmas market in king edward street, this saturday and sunday from 9am to 5pm.

it's a medieval themed market so as well as the usual great mix of handmade art and crafts, there will be lots of medieval-type activities. including the stall holders dressed in medieval costumes - come along to see me as maid marion, a once in a lifetime opportunity!
