Sharing my most elusive seaw**d! This is the gorgeous sea oak (Latin name - halidrys siliquosa) which I find incredibly hard to find, so far I’ve only been lucky in Pembrokeshire and West coast of Ireland (you can see Achill island in the picture) It’s gorgeous pinky tones and leaf shaped patterns make it a very tricky and delicate little thing to press, but it’s truly magnificent and always makes me happy when I find one! If you fancy your own, I will have a few at Riverside Garden Centre as part of South Bristol Arts Trail on Sunday 20th September 🪸🪸🪸🪸 **d **dpressing

Markets!! My favourite way to sell seaw**ds is in person, I can tell people about where they were found, process of pressing and that they’re not watercolour or prints! Most are at the wonderful The Clevedon Sunday Market (thank you Kate!) as truthfully I’m quite nervous to try out others. Having a baby recently has put these on hold for a bit but find me soon at Riverside Garden Centre for South Bristol Arts Trail (Sunday 20th September) - very exciting indeed!!!! **d **dpressing

Sharing some of my favourite close ups of magical seaw**ds from over the years, foraged from Ireland, Devon, Dorset, Cornwall and Pembrokeshire. Beautiful shapes from beautiful places! A reminder than none of these colours are painted, just how they come out of the sea. Do you have a favourite? 🪸 🌊 **d

The amazing pair at have been collating stories about the different connections to the ocean people have - and I’ve done an episode!!! While I cannot hear the sound of my own voice, you might like to hear how I came across seaw**d pressing, or listen to their other episodes about seaw**d farming and ocean exploring. Thankyou guys for a wonderful experience and the opportunity to chat all things ocean related 🌊 🌊 🌊 **d **dpressing

My first forage of Spring this year and since having my son. It was a balmy beautiful day at EXACT low tide (how we managed to coordinate that I’m not quite sure). Featured is my incredible patient Sam and little baby - thanks for indulging me! I’m looking to share the steps of pressing soon - then everyone can have a go 🌞🌞 **d **dpressing

We’re back!!! A special set of seaw**ds for me, the first forage since my little son was born in late May. He joined of course and a lot had to align for it to happen (thanks lots to my partner Sam) - I’ll share the pressed results with you! The little siphon w**d in the first picture is my favourite. **d **dpressing
