A little basket of sunshine heading to Spain 🇪🇸☀️

These personalised ceramic napkin rings are off to a beautiful wedding on 11th July, glazed in soft summer garden hues inspired by sunshine, wildflowers and long alfresco celebrations 🥂

It’s funny how certain dates become favourites — 11th July is proving to be one of the most popular wedding dates of the year, and I’ve had several wedding orders booked for the very same day!

Each napkin ring is individually hand made by pressing letters into the wet clay, glazing and firing in a hot kiln, creating a keepsake that guests can take home long after the last dance. I can just imagine these gathered around a table full of flowers, laughter and Mediterranean sunshine ☀️ 🌸 🌺 🌻

Wishing the happy couple the most wonderful day. 💛

📦🚚 And off they go… 🦆 🐭 🦔 🐿️

I always get quite attached when I’m creating these little homes - imagining their stories, their quiet evenings by the fire, what big mouse is reading…the tiny world tucked safely inside.

I hope it brings as much warmth, joy and comfort to its new owner as it did me while I was making it 🤍

Safe travels little ones 💕

What a gorgeous elegant gift Carlota & Oliver gave to their guests for their wedding in Northern Spain 🇪🇸. Biscuits, chocolates and liquor, all nestled in Spanish wooden flour sieves and adorned with my little handmade ceramic green tags 🏷️

Once the pencil hits the paper I feel less anxious and now excited! I’m just starting work on a new commission for a special friend. A cosy lamp again, but this time built a completely different way to how I normally make them. This one will be slab built. The clay is bought and I have until September… thank goodness! 😁🤞🤞

Maybe those local to Staffordshire or beyond may recognise it as it progresses?!

I might add a new bird table to the list after this!

I love making pieces that celebrate special moments in people’s lives. 💍

These hand-sculpted stoneware leaves and napkin rings are personalised with the couple’s names and the date they said “yes” or the day they were married. Each one is individually hand-sculpted, engraved by hand and kiln fired in my small studio in the Staffordshire Moorlands.

No two are ever quite the same, which feels fitting for a love story that’s completely unique.

They make a thoughtful engagement or wedding gift, and something the couple can keep long after the celebrations are over.

🌿 Personalised with names and a special date
🌿 Handmade from strong & durable stoneware clay
🌿 Lots of colour options available

I always feel honoured knowing these pieces become part of someone’s story.

A lovely memory from Holly and Charlie's wedding favours last year 😊. Their guests names were added to a ceramic leaf, tied with a gorgeous burnt orange velvet ribbon and used as a place setting and wedding favour.

Each ceramic leaf is sculpted from strong stoneware clay using a real leaf. It’s still winter here in the UK but before we know it, fresh oak leaves will be sprouting around our home again. I keep watching out for the buds on the trees 🌳. Thankfully, a few years ago, I discovered a way to preserve leaves by giving them a drink of water and vegetable glycerin - they remain delicate yet surprisingly durable for years, keeping me going over winter 😁. The process doesn’t keeping the colours of the leaves though, so I still prefer to work with the fresh version!

There is something incredibly special about making wedding favours. The magic of the day, and the wonder of where in the world they all end up, and what delicious meals they are used to adorn tables for 🥰.
