Wicks and Sticks

Yes! Easter is fast approaching and once again I'm making small rabbit pots that you can gift to the grandkids full of eggs. After Easter, they can repurposed as a stationary holder for their desks or to put a little plant in to brighten up their garden. I am taking orders now. Happy to put child's name to personalise if required. 

Small rabbits are $25 each. Larger rabbits are available for $40 each.

I was asked by a bingo lady who saw my pots if I could make a 4ft high parrot stand out of timber. Of course I said "probably, cant imagine why i couldn't" and lol, here it is all finished and coated in natural oil with removable p**p tray at the bottom. Next problem is what to charge $$$, any ideas.

I'm loving customers requests this year ! Heres one of my favourites, was asked to make something to suit a laundry and here it is Sudz the washing machine.
The giraffe and crazy concrete chicken are teachers gifts. I do have a variety of pots made if anyone is looking for last minute gifts.

I am trialing using a webpage to show the products I sell. Click the link below and let me know if you think this will help new customers see what's available. Thanks in advance for your help. xx

Oh and yes, I'm also thinking of changing my business name to Perky Pot People, out with the old, in with the new, LOL.

With all the wet weather I've been playing in the shed with new gift lines for x-mas. These 15cm hand painted pots come with the saucer and a succulent for just $20.
I was looking online and saw the ridiculous prices other people are charging (last 2 photos), so buy local and save $$$.
Can be collected from Stanford Merthyr or Ocean Blue Gallery Belmont.
