Happy World Book Day...... thought it was the perfect time to share this recent commission of a retirement gift.

"...Mary has short blonde hair.
She is a rock chick at heart. Goes to all music gigs and festivals.
She has worked here since 2008.. "

After throwing a few other ideas around, decided to show Mary enjoying her down time while reading a copy of the Rolling Stone magazine, the cover being an actual cover from 2008 !! The year she started

Swipe for a close up of the iconic cover & for the reaction of my customer & Mary. I truly have the best customers, thank you😘

If you too would love a very special piece for your loved one just give me a shout.

Hit the ❤️ to wish Mary a long & very happy retirement.

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas, especially those who find this time of year particularly hard.

Ho Ho Hope to see you at my one & only Christmas Market this year which will be 13th/14th in the "treely"gorgeous Farran Woods 🎄 I have been at this event every year since it started & it's truly the most wonderful day out for all the family. Lots for kids & adults alike with plenty of vendors, food, coffee, music etc & I believe 🎅 will make an appearance too. This year Santas reins have been handed over to Kevin from Oinkies & Cloverhill Honey who has been putting huge time & effort into growing this amazing event even bigger this year, no small feat for sure.

So mark the diary & come & celebrate Christmas with us. We would love to see YOU, don't forgot to pop over to say hi👋

25 Shades of Grey!! 😆

Well at least that's what I've called it anyway 🤣 but don't worry I have left this piece without any caption at all so that you can just enjoy the beautiful shells themselves without distraction.

It really is an eye-catching piece, and I deliberated for ages whether or not to keep it for myself, I love it that much. However, I gave in & brought it to .cork.collective in Ballinspittle where it is now awaiting it's new owner!

Hit the 💚 button if you too love/have a great sense of humour! 🙃
