Here's a quick peek at the Harris Tweed purses I'm working on at the moment. This is the small coin purse which will join a new wristlet and clutch design I'm producing.
I'm celebrating this week as my plans for 2011 are shaping up! ELINtm will be exclusively on 'Handmade' sites next year. I will be selling on 'not on the highstreet' - http://www.notonthehighstreet.com
and a great new up&coming juried UK site that has accepted me this week, 'fromthewilde' -

The event I'm taking part in at the Natural History Museum in Ol'London town in January was confirmed last week. I'm really excited about it, even though I am going to have to work like crazy. Bang went my Xmas holidays!!
It was a bit of a milestone too, to actually reach 50 items in my Etsy store, that has never happened before and was the result of good studio practice. Sticking religiously to an extremely detailed list that is about 2 metres long.
It has encouraged me in my plans to expand my Big cartel store next year, start advertising it and make it more of a destination site. To celebrate I have free WW shipping up until December10th - click on the blue bracelet :)
I was really lucky to get this great feature article in the 'noir' issue of Artizen Magazine. It takes a minute or two to load but well worth the wait. Well...for me anyway....I'm so chuffed!!
