Hot!

"Where on Earth have you been?" I hear nobody ask.
Well it's been warm, some might say, tropical, here by the sea, and so I've been out and about eating ice-cream  researching and exploring.





Weston-super-Mare, being a bit warm.

It's been busy at the workshop, new stockist, new people watching my page, new ideas in and out my head, rather splendid stuff. I have a few new pieces this week too so do keep an eye out for them!

In other news, I can't believe my third cogling is all grown up! (Well ok, not really, it just feels that way) She starts school this year.

I've started a book!!! Very exciting, there'll be puppet kings and dark lords and bonkers wizards and airships, the whole kit and kaboodle. I've planned it all out, except for the actual name, but I'm sure I'll think of something.

So you might not hear much from me while the sun is shining, but the first hint of grey clouds and I'll be back!

The Weird Realms Of Facebook

On my travels through the internet and, in particular, the strange world of Facebook, I've found many blogs worth reading (as well as this one obvs!)

There's Little Black Hearts blog www.hopeitrains.blogspot.com where you can read all about drawings, gardens, a garden of doom and how things are always better when it rains.

www.itsnotfingrocketscience.com with food that makes me so so happy!

www.thingsjodydoes.wordpress.com is the blog of the amazingly talented Jody Ellen, vocalist of Abney Park and solo artist. Also very beautiful, lovely lady :)

www.wordsfromfionasbrain.wordpress.com This is full of words. From Fionas brain no less. A talented crafter and what she does :)

Finally, www.domesticsluttery.com is for people like you. Yes that's right, you. You who drinks martinis, likes a bargain, not so keen on washing up and wants to hide in pyjamas all Sunday. Go see!


Let that lot keep you busy while I finish my orders for tonight, I may have pictures to show you tomorrow!! Actual pictures!!!!


Oooo and remember that I'll be picking the winning entrant for my huge exciting giveaway Tuesday evening/ Wednesday morning. Who doesn't love an owl?

My Huge Exciting Giveaway!!!!!

Having 100 people like my Facebook page is very much a big deal, and so to celebrate I am handing out the Battenburg and Oolong tea, and holding a giveaway.

This little chappy is living happily under the title of  "Wise Old Owl" necklace. A very knowledgeable owl, he sits observing. He knows your secrets, and the milkmans...

Set on a brassy chain with charming brown crackle beads he's a lovely looking fellow.

You could give him a home, yes you, and for free!

All you have to do is comment below telling me why Owls are fantastic. That's it! And the answer I like best will have him!

So go! Get commenting!

Oooo Shiny!

Wow, so this is a blog....scary!
First thing's first, take a seat, pour yourself a cup of tea, oh him, no pay no attention to him, that's just the butler.
What do you mean he looks like a monkey? Well, I suppose he is a monkey of sorts.....
Anyway, expect some random pictures of things that amuse me, my random work from www.facebook.com/LyraLavernesAetherEmporium, and anecdotes that may or may not have happened.

Kind of blogginess, from my blog.....

Anyway, do sit back and relax and I'll post again soon!
