Felt Cosmetic Bags
Quick Overview
This fabric design is taken from an original painting I did, playing with many layers of lines on top of lines on top of colour. Each bag is different to the next, because life's too short to have the same thing as everyone else.
The bags are made from recycled felt - and recycled felt is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles! So consider this a way to help keep plastic bottles out of the landfill. 15 plastic bottles are used per square metre of felt, so one bag uses just over 2 plastic bottles.
23 L x 17 H x 6 W cm
Fronts & backs are different colours, and my little logo of AA is handstitched on the bottom corner of each of them.
Machine washable.
Not lined inside.
Made in South Africa, of course.
Not necessarily only for cosmetics - great for stationery; sewing kits; charger cords & cables; first aid essentials; all the loose stuff floating around in your handbag...

Milk Bottles
Quick Overview
This is such a sweet little thing. And it has quite a few uses :
Use it as a bud vase for the table or on your desk,
Use it on the tea tray for milk, instead of a jug (you could even pair it with a teapot :))
Use it in the bathroom as an oil diffuser:)
Best to wash by hand (the high heat of a dishwasher can cause fine cracks to form in the glaze over time).
Only one of each!

Holds 240 ml
Handmade trinket bowls (blue)
Quick Overview
Handmade and handpainted, these little bowls are all complete one-offs, and have been a joy to make. Some have an idiom or proverb painted along the bottom, and are small individual artworks. Painted with lovely rich blue cobalt powder and using a technique called sgrafitto to scratch out the detail has had me finding my old self again:)
approx 13 W x 5,5 H cm

Butterdishes
Quick Overview
There's nothing old-fashioned about these butterdishes. Tried, tested and loved by many, they bring a little bit of joy to the kitchen counter, and I can never produce enough of them. If you eat butter everyday, this is the butterdish for you:) Each design is a one-off.
Holds a 500g brick of butter (I've tried all the brands, they all fit)
11 W x 17 L x 7,5 H cm

Please wash by hand, as the high heat of a dishwasher may cause fine cracks in the glaze.
