'tis the season of the glove


The dyepots are finally boiling. I should have started dye a month ago but the humidity was so overpowering I couldn't face sweating my days away lugging pots around and stirring, stirring, stirring.
I managed ten batches yesterday but that is merely the tip of the iceberg. We have new swing tags coming in this week for them and I am going to have to allocate a few days a week just to the gloves- in fact my life from now until August will be centred on these fluffy little bread-and-butters.

  2. Hello Hello!

    Just popped into your shop yesterday and am just loving my new green sandals, and my little fella loved his little mouse.

    I nearly fell over when I saw this post! I've renovated my farm house this year and I have THE SAME EXACT backsplash! Please show me more - and I'll show you mine!! Did you put a varnish on top of yours? Did you scrub them back yourself with a wire brush?

    Happy days. Amy
