Bythebay

Trying out another idea (a very rough prototype).... I have a few old plant pots I want to use up.... flower made from driftwood, so ideal for outside...and would never need watering!

There's a caravan park developing on my mantelpiece... The camper van will be going into a picture... then off to Half Moon Bay café with it...

Went to replace another couple of sold pictures at Half Moon Bay Café....love the new sculpture..... the Bay just keeps getting better...

A first attempt at a tiny caravan.... A new line maybe?... Will see if they sell at my next craft fair....

Just got back from Half Moon Bay café and I have sold three more pictures this week....and three last week... feeling so chuffed... definitely my best outlet..... Thanks to Tony, June, Jade and others...Going to be busy making more stock over the next week or two🤩🤩🤩

Feeling very creative at the moment ... new ideas keep popping in my head. ..I can hardly get them sketched before another one comes to mind! What to try first? Will post for your opinions as they are completed. ...always appreciate your help!

Started a new garden sculpture today.... it's for the cottage garden at Heysham Heritage Centre.....this measures approx 45cm in length...and this is just a part of it....

Can you guess what these will be when finished?

Look what we found washed up on the beach today....we got a few funny looks when we carried it back to Morrison's carpark....I might have a go at making a driftwood lobster to go in it....

Starting planning out another exhibition piece... Just need to source the driftwood for it...

Looking forward to being back with my crafter friends like Frances here, for our first craft fair of the year, Easter weekend at Heysham Heritage Centre.

Spare bedroom... It's so much easier to be creative when you are not having to clear up after each session....Good job we have no one staying for a few weeks.... work all over the floor! 🤣😂🤣

Lovely to see a couple of my garden pieces in situ. ... The copper is aging beautifully. ...Thanks for sending the pictures Liz .

Thanks to the donation of Morecambe Bay driftwood from Amanda, one of my Facebook followers....my latest tiny seaside cottages and beach huts are finished... Message for more details... mortgages will not be required...very reasonably priced...between £6.50 and £10

Thank you to Amanda Howarth for lots of lovely Morecambe Bay driftwood.... I have used some of it for bases for my seaside cottages and beach huts... I will post pictures tomorrow...

The seaside village on my hearth is growing.... Just need to find driftwood bases to fasten the cottages and beach huts to and then add a little bunting or washing lines...

A little sanding and a couple more bits to add, then the next step is painting on the windows and doors...the most nerve-wracking bit...one smudged line and it's back to sanding the piece again!!!!

This is turning out to be a lot bigger than I first envisaged... Over 70cm wide and 34cm tall... eek!!!!!

We have a boat & a wreath & love them both & will be buying more bits from Lin in the future. Gorgeous stuff x

The little cat is perfect - Jamie is grey and white with lovely markings. The picture is beautifully framed and I'm going to put it up somewhere where everyone can see it! Thank you so much Lin xx
