Good Morning Everyone! 

 
Wow what a lovely response to my new blog! I have had lots of lovely friends requesting angels and felted animals already. I can’t wait to get started! I will message you each personally when I am ready to make your felted request. I am still getting myself set up with the resources I need. I have set up an email address for people to message requests, but please continue to text/ WhatsApp/ Facebook/ Instagram message requests too if you have my number. Please allow me a few days to respond to your email, especially at the start of this venture as I am still learning. At the moment I am doing local collection only as I am currently shielding due to my cancer treatment and coronavirus, so am not going into the post office. Do you like my new logo idea?
 
 
So update on what I can offer right now...
Any of the above plus requests for felted animals of your choice. I can give anything a go! I have also done a painting for a friend on request in her snug. I will get a photo to share with you.
Watch this space for school resources to use at home and teaching ideas/ projects/ schemes of work! I will share these when I have done making up some starter packs, a friend has kindly offered to trial them with her 2 year old and 5 year old. Again photos to follow...
 
Due to my chemotherapy I am putting on hold my dog walking services and pet sitting for now (until I know how I feel and can commit). Also for obvious reasons I cannot hold arty parties yet or go into schools for art sessions, but am building up a portfolio to share for when this is a possiblility in the future (I am really excited about this one). For those of you who know me, and party planning, this is my dream job! 
 
Chat soon! Gemma x

SOooooooooo… my first home school learning pack for EARLY YEARS aged children is finished and ready go to Alfie (Reception school age) and Evelyn (preschool age) to try out for me! It has been exciting to make the first one so now I know how long they take to create and make, how much paper I use, how many laminating pouches, and knowing I need a few extra bits like paper clips (I ended up using hair clips!), velcro strips and pipe cleaners. Each pack will come with a reading buddy too… I have spent my evenings making a start on some angels, I am excited to see how they turn out. It always surprises me how different they all are, and no matter how hard I try, I cannot recreate the same one twice! I mentioned before about how I did a painting for a friend. It was a quote and image she had found and resonated with her, and she asked if I could paint it. I thoroughly enjoyed making it for her. If any of you have any favourite quotes and would like me to draw/paint them, send me an...

Hello everyone,  So what a lovely, busy week. I have very much enjoyed starting on some felting orders. I have made two beautiful angels and some guinea-pigs. I am starting on another angel holding a star this time! I've never done a star so looking forward to trying that out! I have also had an order for an apron and can't wait to start on the design... Thank you again for your orders! Rosie, Finley and I are currently doing our first fundraiser for one of our chosen charities, The Willow Foundation. We are walking 50km in January as a team! Also we have baked 50 cakes for our neighbours and our friends... If you would like to donate here is the link (you may need to highlight, copy and paste into a new browser page): https://willowfoundation.enthuse.com/pf/team-smith The children are home schooling at the moment, Rosie and I enjoyed doing some art on Wednesday. We even lit a candle and played some Glee songs on Alexa to relax us into the mood! Bit of an update on my treatmen...
