I am always thinking of new upcycling ‘bright ideas’. Here is a selection of some of them. Every item I create is unique.
Memories are made of this
I’m sure many of you have precious memorable items, photographs etc., that are hidden away. I can bring them to life for you, by creating a montage that can be displayed with pride.
Flat Out Goods
Flatout Goods are stylish accessories for people ‘on the move’. All items start off as flat pieces of re-claimed leather that ‘pop-up’ into useful and decorative accessories. Ideal mailing gifts.
Mini Me
I have had a few commissions to re-create people’s favourite pet out of my massive collection of buttons and beads. Every one is unique, as nature intended.
Charmed I’m sure
Brighten up your handbag; add a little bit of bling to your furnishings; put a twinkle in your window, with charms made from pretty vintage and retro bits & pieces, buttons and beads.
For that special occasion
Personalised wall plaques to celebrate that special day… made from old chopping boards, vintage letters and numbers and decorated with other pretty bits and bobs.
Get on Board
Take another old chopping board, add some twinkly bits and pieces and lots of imagination, and hey presto, you have
an original piece of wall art!
It’s all tied up
It’s amazing what you can make from one old silk tie! The fabric designs are beautiful, so I have made various items from them, giving them a new lease of life.
Box Clever
Decoupaged items… if you have a particular theme in mind, I can transform a simple box or other items into a treasured keep sake.
What a Card
Personalised greeting cards are available online, but hand made ones that have an even more individual feel to them are so much more special. You give me the theme, a few photos, and I will do the rest.
Mythological Magic
Fantastic Fairies, Pixies and Dragons made out of buttons and beads, with a touch of magic dust!
The Bolt Family
Made out of odd pieces of locally reclaimed tools, hinges, brackets, cutlery items etc. and bolted together.

Jurassic Park
Dastardly Dinosaurs made out of even more buttons and beads!.
