🎄💕 CHRISTMAS CRAFT FAYRE PREPARATIONS CONTINUE! 💕🎄

Another day, another couple of handmade creations finished at Heart of the Sea, Cumbria! 🥰🌊

Following on from my Mam frames, I've now added Nan and Gran to my collection of heartfelt little keepsakes! ❤️

I've been busy building up my stock ready for my upcoming Christmas craft fayres, and I wanted to make sure there were some lovely, affordable gifts for those special people in our lives. 🎁

Each frame features its own little poem, surrounded by a heart made from genuine sea glass collected along the Cumbrian coastline, with a few sparkling gems to finish it off. ✨

🌸 Nan keepsake frame – £13
💕 Gran keepsake frame – £13
❤️ Mam keepsake frame – £13

All beautifully presented in 5 × 7 inch frames, making them perfect little Christmas gifts that can be treasured long after the decorations have come down. 🎄

I'm really enjoying putting this collection together, and there's still plenty more crafting to do before the fayres! 😂

📩 Orders are welcome too, so you don't have to wait until the Christmas markets to get your hands on one!

Now I'm curious… what do you call yours — Mam, Mum, Nan, Nana, Gran or Grandma? ❤️

I'm always looking for ideas for which designs to make next!

💕🌊 A LITTLE SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR MAM 🌊💕

The Christmas crafting has well and truly begun at Heart of the Sea, Cumbria! 🎄😂❤️

I've been busy preparing stock for my upcoming craft fayres, working on new designs and putting together lots of lovely little Christmas gift ideas! 🎁✨

These are my latest creations — Mam keepsake frames, and I absolutely love how they've turned out! 🥰

Each one features a heartfelt poem surrounded by a heart made from genuine sea glass collected along the Cumbrian coast, finished with little sparkling gems. 💕

Every piece of sea glass is different, so no two frames will ever be exactly the same. 🌊

I wanted to create some beautiful, meaningful gifts that don't have to cost a fortune, especially with Christmas just around the corner.

🎁 5 × 7 inch framed keepsakes – £13 each

Perfect for Christmas, birthdays, Mother's Day or simply to remind your Mam how much she means to you. ❤️

I'm gradually building up my collection ready for the craft fayres, with lots of personalised gifts, Cumbrian keepsakes and handmade Christmas creations on the way!

And these Mam frames are just the beginning… 👀🎄

📩 Orders are welcome, so if you'd like one before Christmas, just send me a message.

🌊❤️ A LITTLE THANK YOU ❤️🌊

I've noticed quite a few new faces following Heart of the Sea, Cumbria recently, so I just wanted to say a huge hello and welcome! 👋🥰

And to those of you who've been here for a while — thank you for sticking around and supporting me as this little business continues to grow. ❤️

Every follow, like, comment and share helps my work reach someone new. Every order still gives me that little “someone actually wants something I made!” feeling 😂, and I genuinely appreciate every single one.

What started with my love of collecting little treasures from the Cumbrian coast has grown into location frames, personalised gifts, memorial keepsakes, sea-glass and sea-pottery creations, pens and lots of experimenting with new ideas along the way. 🌊✨

I've had the opportunity to create some incredibly personal pieces, see my work being sold in Keswick, and I've got Christmas fairs coming up too. 🎄 It still feels a little surreal sometimes!
So whether you've bought something, shared a post, recommended me to someone, left a lovely comment or simply followed along quietly — thank you. You're helping a small handmade Cumbrian business grow. 🥰

And if you're new here, welcome to Heart of the Sea, Cumbria. There is plenty more to come… and probably plenty more beachcombing too! 😂🌊

🌳❤️ A VERY SPECIAL BIRTHDAY GIFT ❤️🌳

This one is a little closer to home. 🥰

Today was my mum's birthday, and rather than buying her something, I wanted to make her something that represented what matters most — our family.

So this is my own family tree. ❤️

Every name represents one of us, all growing in different directions but still connected by the same roots. I finished the centre with a heart made from individually chosen pieces of genuine sea glass, bringing a little bit of Heart of the Sea into our own family keepsake. 🌊

I absolutely loved making this one — although fitting our lot onto one tree was a challenge in itself! 😂

And now that Mum has received it, I can finally share it with you.

These can be completely personalised to your own family, with your family name and the names that matter to you, making each one completely unique.

🌳 Personalised Family Tree Frame – £25

Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, grandparents or simply as a special keepsake for your own home. ❤️

If you'd like one created for your family, just send me a message.

💚 A VERY SPECIAL COMMISSION 💚

I've been waiting until this one had been safely collected before sharing it. ❤️

This was such a special piece to be trusted with — a personalised memorial frame created in memory of a much-loved Dad, Dennis, who was taken far too soon.

The design brings together precious photographs from throughout his life, along with little details that meant something to him and his family — including his love of pigeons. 🕊️

I finished the centre with a heart made from genuine sea glass, carefully choosing and placing each individual piece around his name and a poem written especially for him. 🌊💚

I absolutely love creating personalised pieces, but memorial frames are different. You're being trusted with someone's photographs, memories and story, and I never take that lightly.

It was genuinely an honour to create this one, and I hope it will be treasured by his family for many years to come. ❤️

Thank you for trusting Heart of the Sea, Cumbria with something so precious.

Personalised 5.5 × 7.5 inch frames are £17.50. If you have an idea for a special person, memory or occasion, you're always welcome to message me and we can create something completely personal together.

🌊 A LITTLE HEART OF THE SEA CATCH-UP 🌊

Another few hours spent at Allonby Beach today, doing one of my favourite things… searching for little treasures! 🥰🌊

There’s something so relaxing about just wandering along the beach and seeing what the tide has left behind — although I’m pretty sure I now look at the ground more than the actual view. 😂

And I did manage to come home with a few lovely finds that I'm sure will eventually make their way into something special. 👀✨

I've actually been a little quieter on here because there's been plenty happening behind the scenes too. I've been working on a few lovely orders that I can't wait to show you once they've reached their new homes. ❤️

I've also been back to Keswick and dropped off some fresh stock, so there's a new selection of Heart of the Sea, Cumbria pieces waiting to be discovered there. 🥰

Beachcombing, making orders, restocking… and, as usual, about a million new ideas going around in my head. 😂🌊

I'll show you some of those finished orders very soon!
