Treat Yourself Tuesday! ~ Linen and Roses


Hi Welcome to this weeks Treat Yourself Tuesday! I have opened a Misi shop this week and have had fun personalising it and that has prompted me to personalise my jewellery photo's (see them here). So I have chosen my seller for todays treats from Misi.

These lovelies are Handmade by Fiona from Linen and Roses. I just love that cushion and in keeping with me dreaming about my new home 'The Heart Of The Home' embroidery ring hanging would look lovely on my wall!

I do hope you'll pop over to Linen and Roses to see what other lovelies Fiona has on offer.

I hope to see you next week for some more Treats.

Hi Welcome to 'Treat Yourself Tuesday' I'm sorry we didn't have one last week. Somehow although I had been thinking about it, it managed to completely slip my mind!

TYT is undergoing a slight change. As I will be closing all my shops except Folksy and Etsy I won't be limiting where I draw my Treats from. I will also only be doing one treat a week. I need to conserve my energy for managing the shops properly! If you shop on Dawanda, Zibbet or Art Fire then pop on over to my shops to grab yourself a treat before they shut. I would like to offer 10% off just put in RC10 at checkout and I will refund you through Paypal after the transaction is complete.

So I have been on Ebay today shopping for a little basket I can make into a card organiser for birthdays etc and I came across Annie's Linens She makes lovely textile products and it was her little storage bags/caddies that caught my eye. On further exploration of her shop I decided that i would feature this item....


it's a rug/bathroom mat and soo pretty! you can buy it here

And she is having a big sale at present! 68% off! so get on over to Annie's Linens and treat yourself or someone special to a pretty bargain!

I hope you have like my Treat this week and will pop back next week to see what other treats I have found!

Treat Yourself Tuesday! ~ Painting

My second blog post of the day! Sorry could have organised that better!

I have just got back from my art group and have just done my first real painting of still life, in acrylics. So this weeks theme is Painting which I am taking from Art Fire the site created for artists.

This is a hand painted card by Art by Joan


This porcelain planter is decorated with the Chinese brush painting technique.by Terrance Franz Lazaroff (otherwise known as Clayart) at £225 this is a real treat!

I love this picture! I love the way the bear is almost smiling! This is an original watercolour by Cherilynne Fine Art


 ok so I admit I have chosen this painting just for the Border Collie since I have a very cute one of my own :-) Also the concept of the painting made me laugh! This painting is by Todd Young Art

still life. This is the kind of thing I was working on today! But this looks so much better than mine but then I am just beginning! This is in oils by Meaghan Louise who lives in Australia! It's always nice to see art from different parts of the world :-)

I love the pastel colours in this one! One of the reasons I want to learn to paint is so I can paint sunsets with this kind of colouring. This is painted with acrylics by Pendragon Art Works. Pendragon too reminds me of my Home County Cornwall. "By Tre, Pol and Pen you shall know your Cornishmen" Which means names starting with those like Pendragon :-)

A painting that is so good it looks like a photo! I can't imagine ever being able to replicate what I see so exactly :-) This is handpainted by Veronica's Art

and finally, no collection of mine is complete without a piece of Jewellery and this piece is handpainted porcelain by Saniki Creations

Well I hope you have enjoyed my selection of treats this week though I understand they are treats for a very special occasion! But then Art is for life (not just for Christmas hehe)

I hope you will pop over and see these artists shops and the other wonderful pieces they have for sale and I hope to see you again next week.

Treat Yourself Tuesday! ~ Spring Fever


Welcome to this week's Treat Yourself Tuesday! Every time I look out of my bedroom window I can see our apple tree has spots of green all over it. In one week it's gone from tiny buds to tiny leaves!

This is soo cute! I used to have a white bunny called Angel :-) This is a hand painted slate by The Pip Berry Tree

I love what this artist says about this necklace... "These little daisies gently caressing one another is about birth of the spring
and love. I remember as a young child pulling petal after petal hoping one day I would find my great love (which I happily did). This pendant is an ode to those carefree days spent musing and wishing..." Handmade by Tzaddishop

This gorgeous spring hat is by Kimberley Waugh of The Waughdrobe (Don't you just love the name? You know what I'm like for names)
