Cow Parsley

Having the time to look closely and research I have learnt that the fabulous Umbel out now is Cow Parsley or Queen  Anne's Lace. It flowers April - June plenty of time for me to make new books, prints, cards and maybe even a lamp shade or two !

#makerssupportpledge

I have made some new books during Lockdown with covers made with wet cyanotype and soap suds They are £30 to buy from me 
I am posting images of these books as part of the #makersupportpledge as suggested by the Crafts Council from an idea from matthew burrows studio 
This is where makers sell their work up to £200 (not including postage/shipping) and then every time they sell £500 of work they buy £100 of work from another maker 
Contact me directly if you want to buy a book 
bridgetarnold66@gmail.com 

 


In Matthew’s words “This creates a market where all can contribute whatever their level of success. This is a culture dependent on the honesty and generosity of our creative communities.” So, make a pledge and post your work with #makersupportpledge #artistsupportpledge

Lamp Shade reviews


After running quite a few lamp shade workshops now I thought it would be good to see what participants have said so far !

'A really enjoyable workshop - almost two in one! Fascinating learning about the cyanograph printing process and then making up the lampshade. Thank you!'  

'A lovely workshop, good for small groups/pairs. A really enjoyable process and Bridget is a really easy going tutor, making for a really relaxing day. The lamps turn out better than you think they will. Lovely lunch too.' 

Next workshop with spaces Monday 16 March and Saturday 21 March still at £60 until April
