Polly Pram Dolly
£11.50
The pram was spied up on a shelf at Hemswel Antique Market, well it had to be snapped didnt it? The dolly, well, is one of my own, I can’t remember where she was found, but here she is printed, cut out and collaged, she is not particularly happy she is back in a pram as she was born in 1942. The background is a 1030s silk handkerchief I purchased from Newark Antique fair.

Festive David Pulls – 4 Pack
Festive David Pulls – 4 Pack
£23.00
As promised Dave is pimped up for the festive season, bedecked and bebaubled he can’t wait to get out there and party. If truth be known it’s been tricky keeping him under wraps, he’s been dressed up like this since August Bank Holiday. Any way here he is, dusted down and free to mingle at will.
David is hanging out festively on high quality but scrap paper, a bi product of the packaging industry in Hull. Sometimes this paper will be smooth, sometimes textured, it just depends what is surplus to it’s day job. He is printed on two sides in glorious technicolour by hand in my studio on my Epson Ecotank ET – 7750. His Tassels (cotton) and other embellishments are sourced locally from real shops run by mostly by real Nannas. When folded he is 150mm by 104mm and extends, when open, to an impressive 300mm!! He is designed folded and finished by myself and given a fancy loop made from red waxed bookbinding thread from the mecca of bookbinding supplies that is Rachfords in Stockport, this, so you can hang him from any convenient tree or Mistletoe sprig you fancy. He has asked if possible he could be dangled away from through drafts due to the shortcomings in his costume and his tendancy to chills.(I did say he should have thought about that earlier!) This is why for postage purposes he is dressed in a cosy C6 recycled and recyclable British Harry Manila envelope.
Dave can be purchased in gaggles of 5, he has kept himself trim so he can travel under the steam of a normal first or second class stamp.

The Whisky Twins – 4 pack

I found this shop display in Louth and just had to have it, who wouldn’t…….thank you Lee. As you can see The Whisky Twins are also planning a day at the races sporting (sorry) a couple of crocheted micro hats. Luckily I was able to record the preparations and here they are suited and booted awaiting the Charabanc.
