Wendover Tomorrow

We're looking forward to going back to Wendover tomorrow - 12th November (Wendover Memorial Hall. Wharf Road, Wendover, Bucks, HP22 6HF. 10am-4pm). Hope to see some of you there.

We had a lovely time in Aylesbury last week at Queens Park Arts Centre. It was great to see Louise again - many thanks for all your hard work in organising the event. And it was good to spend time chatting to enthusiastic crafters we haven't seen since last year. It was also encouraging to see so many people though the door and for us to meet up with former and new customers.

We have had a good response to people signing up in person to be added to our mailing list, instead of through the website, and will be emailing them with news soon.

We have added a new page to our website - Frequently Fondled - with those pieces that have prompted most comment throughout our recent events. Have a look and let us know what you think of them.

And we're busy looking for events for next year. So far we've had a positive response, so look for new dates here soon.

Work in progress

Tomorrow is our annual trip to Aylesbury and we’ve been busy finishing off pieces to take along. The workshop bench is also covered in unfinished pieces that we need to get on with. This week we’ve spent a bit of time getting the solar panels on the roof to the optimum pitch to take advantage of the limited winter sun – we haven’t seen much of it today.

As well as making pieces to sell we’re in the process of making a ring for our newly 18-year old nephew. It incorporates a Georgian fork handle and the gold from one of his grandmother’s old rings. Never sure of how people will receive things we make them, we are pleased to report his was delighted with the semi-finished ring we showed him. Now all we have to do is cut it to the right size, solder up and send it to the assay office.
