Affordable Art
Finally, some lovely pictures of a handful of our available frames have gone online. Matt is making away as we speak replenishing our stock, whilst I shoot the little we have left.

Prints are all limited editions, and the frames are reclaimed and revived, which means each lovely package is unique.

Photos are currently coming from our travel and adventure albums. From the woods of Wales to places that will have to stay just that little bit secret. Doors, windows, wall art and wanders, all bearing a common theme...rust, rot or romance.

but be patient, they will be on Folksy soon!x

As I browse online looking to buy some paper bags in which to send away my creations to their new homes, I think, surely there is another way. Making my own 'carrier bags' always seemed to labour intensive, but I think I have now been converted!
Check out: 'Bags for the People', a great little initiative, sharing skills, information and doing their bit for an ongoing problem.

From now on, Piebird will be making their own simple carrier bags from recycled bed linen.

So, I better get making then. Ta'ra for now.x

Piebird is proud to announce its FIRST internet sale! We are well and truly getting into the flow of this now, and loving it, and hope the new proud owner of 'Lady Indiana' enjoys the fruits of the piebird love and labour. Thank you x

No Posts for a while...Oops. Must have been entranced on the Singer, sewing away.

Well, a busy summer of fairs is in full flow! A recent little break has allowed some more focus to go on the FOLKSY SHOP... and website, and stocking up on more lovely vintage materials and goodies. I am itching to get rooting around some quirky flea markets and start picking up bits and bobs on my travels to re-make into some beaming new bags!
