Handmade Monday 16 What a Lovely Day

Well its been a hectic week but ended in a lovely day at the Brickworks It wasnt particulaly busy but I met lots of lovely people, the lady next to me had amazing cards made with her hand made silk and some beautiful paimtings , there was gorgeous cupcakes next to her and a fascinating art across the way it was fused glass but some were bottles turned into spoon rests they were lovely
Also Jean who ran the Art exhibition popped in and said I could put a couple of pieces into the shop I loved this idea just need to decide which ones

But what made my day was the lady that had reserved her painting came to collect it she was very pleased and I realised that there are some lovely people around that genuinly loved my work.
These are the paintings before mounting

    It's a lovely feeling when people love your work, isn't it? I love those colours in the paintings. My favourite mix, I think :-)

    Thanks for taking part in HM x

    The trio looks really great, I too love the colours, the first picture especially looks like rippling silk, really effective.

    It's great when someone organises and cooks a meal for you.

    I think all events this weekend were slow but getting praise makes it all worth while and the picture is beautiful, well done you deserve.

    Sounds like you had a great day. 'That lady' would have made my day. I agree with Picto, you really have captured the sheen of silk.

    Sounds like some lovely people at the fair and I am not surprised the lady loved her picture - the colours are beautiful and now it is framed it is stunning.

    Such a great feeling to get the feedback directly from your customers.
