Happy New Year to all my . 🎉
This year I'm hoping to try and create some new items using driftwood as there seems to be a shortage of seaglass on the beaches. 🙄
As we've had so many storms lately there is an abundance of driftwood so I've started collecting! 🌊
I'm also looking for various outlets (shops, cafés, campsites, etc) to stock my items, so if you know of anywhere, please tag them in the comments.
I've added some photos below of the type of crafts I'm thinking of trying out, if you like any of them, give the photo a ❤️
I look forward to showing you some new creations very soon. 😁

My first attempt at this sort of picture. 🌿
I collected some flowers from the garden and put them in the flower press for a couple of days until they were ready, added a piece of pottery and driftwood from the beach and now it's ready for a new home!

Well it's been a long time since I've posted on here, time is flying by!
Just a quick glimpse of what I've been up to lately, while touring around Scotland last month I responsibly collected some seaweed, pressed it and these are the results, not bad for my first attempt 😁

It won't be long before the Christmas tree 🌲will be decorated, get those baubles down from attic that you've had for years....or how about some unique baubles with a beach theme? These set of 4 baubles filled with shells, seaglass, driftwood and maybe the odd mermaids purse collected from Gower beaches come in a presentation box and are just £15.00.
They would make a lovely gift for the beach lover as they can be used all year round, plus you can add your own beach finds to the baubles. 🏖
