Sneak a Peek

Here's a little look at a few of my new purse designs. They'll be available to purchase at my website soon, when I get a minute spare and at my forthcoming shows.

Country Living Posters

This morning I was chuffed to discover that Country Living have featured my 'Doe a Deer' purse in there publicity poster for the show in London. It's all very exciting! especially if they use this image for all there PR and promotion. Hoorah.

I'm A Happy Camper!

Here's a litttle taste of some new bags I've been working on. This one here is my one of a kind Happy Campers version, which is available at my website, www.sarahculleton.co.uk .

I've made another 10 of these, all in different colourways and featuring some lovely pictures. If I ever get a spare moment, I'll feature a few more of them!

Country Living Magazine Christmas Fair

I'm currently in the middle of a making frenzy getting ready for the Country Living Christmas Fair in London, which starts exactly 8 weeks today on 9th November. Ah! I can't believe it's coming round so quickly! I'll be at Stand No. P50. It's all very nerve racking, but I'm excited to be exhibiting lots of new work at the show for the first time.

Etsy Front Page

Hoorrah! My Mabel Shoulder Bag was on the front page of Etsy yesterday! I'm very chuffed indeed! That's a great start to my Monday!

I Need A New Frock

The thought of owning these two gorgeous dresses from Cath Kidston is literally the only thing keeping me going at the moment. Just a few more sales and the red ones mine!! Or at least that's what I tell myself, chances are I'll wait for it to go into the sale and then be bitterly disappointed when its sells out. How ever i do truly believe my life would be better for owning it! The pumps and the other dress wouldn't go a miss either.

Better Late Than Never!

Oh!!! its literally been ages since I've done any of this blogging business. It has been a busy old time to say the least, so now I'm an invalid ( I put my back out, switching on the oven last week) I think I might actually have a bit of time to catch up. Here's a few of my new spring range shoulder bags, I rather like them myself and might actually make one for me! At least when I'm able to do something more than sit on my arse, catching up with blog posts.

DESIGN CIRCUS

I've just realised, I've not mentioned Design Circus on my blog yet! So I'd better do just that!

Design Circus is a pop up shop, just off Tudor square in West Bridgford, Nottingham. It was set up and is run by a group of very talented designers from Nottingham to sell their wares.

After opening on October 22nd 2009, the shop was due to close on Christmas eve, but is still going strong now, and hopefully will remain open till at least the end of May 2010.

Design circus is open everyday except Mondays, so if you get the chance do stop by and Have a look at the fantastic selection of, handmade and fair trade goodies on offer.

APPLES AND PEARS

Hello! I did my first craft fair at the weekend, Apples and Pears and Crafty Wares At the Arts Organisation, Nottingham. There was some lovely work there! I had a very busy week beforehand trying to get my new designs together for the fair. These pics , taken at the fair, feature a selection of some of my new bits. Anyway it was a nice day out and I met some lovely people too.

MY NEW WEBSITE!

Finally after months of messing about, and putting things off, I've just launched my new website!

www.sarahculleton.co.uk went live on the 4th Feb 2010.

I'll be uploading all my new designs over the coming weeks, so keep an eye out!

New Deisgns!

Hello! I've just finished a brand new batch of coin purses, there are 15 designs to choose from with more to come. I'll be uploading the new purses onto etsy very shortly.

Happy New Year

Hello!

A very belated Happy New Year! Despite my best intentions it seems to have taken me an awful long time, to get round to updating my blog. What a surprise! Anyway before I start going on about new designs and all that business, I thought I'd catch up with craft show news and pictures from December. Very little sleep was had that month, one Craft show after the next, sales were good at Design Circus too, so it was sew, sew, sew! As I've also not had chance to update my Etsy store with new designs, the following pics will give you a little taste of things to come.

These pics were taken at the Denby Food and Gift fair and The Don't Panic, Christmas Gift Bazare at the Quad centre in Derby. Both were very good shows and gave me chance to showcase my new designs, which mostly sold. Hoorahhh!

AND THE WINNER IS:

Congratulations to shelbyhealey.etsy.com, the winner of My Great Gladys Clutch Bag Give- Away. Shelby's name was the first to come out of the hat/ pudding bowl from the names of the first 100 etsyians that hearted my shop. Thanks to everyone that entered.

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY

Hello!

Between making bags, craft fair's, sorting out my new website and keeping on top of my etsy shop, there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day at the moment! I thought I'd kill 2 birds with 1 stone here and show you my stall at last weekends craft fair in West Bridgeford, Nottingham, which'll also give you a sneak preview of my new bags, soon to be listed for sale on etsy. Hope you like them!
