When the 'Arty Chic' shop isn't open you can still get hand made creations from Ruby Lime Design on Madeit

If you are a local, don't worry about the postage charges, I will refund that if you pick up from the shop, or you can just send me a message and I can make other arrangements.

Papercut Art for Dads

With Fathers Day approaching, I've been thinking Dad's while papercutting this week.
Perhaps your Dad would like a unique handmade gift like this?
These (and perhaps a few more) will be in store from Friday!

Of course, you might just want to keep them for yourself too!!

Owl Collage

I saw this red frame in a shop window and felt the urge to do a collage in it.  So here it is and if you like it you can get it here!

"I love printmaking" Ali Bird

I have been doing some more screenprinting and adding some extra special touches with hand drawn images over the top. All of my designs are original and I really love the whole process of creating prints. My challenge over this summer is do some lino block prints and move into some more challenging pieces.......

I have printed on raw silk for the flags and bird, combined with vintage look linen with part of a doillie and also used some luxe embellishments. The singlets are some cool boy's designs I have been playing with entitled "Space Robots".

January Sale

Pod Collective is reopening on Saturday the 2nd January and there will LOTS of items on SALE!!!  We want to make way for new and exciting stock for next year so come and grab some great bargains.....

Satchel Bags

 

 

Lots of new Satchel Bags in the shop now!!

Hair coils - Hair combs and Hand and Foot jewellery by Sachi Art

New Hair combs that won't fall out of fine hair.

Hair Coils - just coil them into your hairstyle, eg ponytail or bun etc and that adds that extra bling to your style.

 

 

 

Hand and Foot jewellery - great for beach weddings and can be worn with shoes as well to add colour and bling to your outfit. I can make the Foot jewellery without beads around toes so it can be worn comfortably with open shoes.

Matchbox mini miss

Thanks to the help of Shannon I now have these cute little houses for some cute mini dolls.  These are in the Pod Collective Shop, especially for the Christmas period. 

Had a great day in the shop today and it was especially good being inside as it is so hot today!
