My ethos is to reuse and repurpose items that many would throw in the bin, this includes all my packaging.

Finished with a driftwood shelf and beach pottery vase .
Measures 32 x 42cm
Every one of my art works are complete one of a kind pieces ,so when you purchase one you will own something that no one else in the entire world has 😵

When I’m searching the beach I never know what I’ll find but definitely, each and every time I will find items from fishing activities washed up.
Usually it’s tangled fishing line or small knots but I did find 2 very big knots of coloured rope.
They sat in my stash for the last year and finally I had an idea so please meet my 2 elegant dancers wearing their rope knot dresses.

The silhouettes are hand painted in black acrylic.

A beach found piece of pottery for the vase along with some special seaglass and pottery pieces hidden amongst the blooms 🌸
I know everyone has a button stash but what do you keep yours in ?
Mine are colour sorted into small glass jars 🤓

My new makes using scraps of old fabric, seaglass and beach pottery.
I spent so long procrastinating whether to use a plain white background or a colour 🤣 I think this yellow makes the flowers pop really well.
