Steve (my beloved) and I were at a mind body and spirit fair in Whitby just over a week ago. Great fun. It was a little quiet but it was a new fair, so whatever. It needs time to grow. We met some lovely people. One lady made organic chocolate full of fresh fruits and spices. Another has seven (I think) bee hives in her garden and sells honey and hand made beauty products made from the honey and bees wax etc. Another had handmade rag doll and cute little people on keyrings and more. Fab stuff!
Well we had quite a few new items on our stall, all made by our own sweet selves, Gaia & The Ent. Steve had made lots of new walking sticks, staffs and wands. All from local wood, sympathetically gathered and worked. These are very powerful and full of wonderful Earth energies.
I knitted a new type bracelet in various hand dyed wools. You can twist it around your wrist as many times as you want and it fastens with a button. I have called them Wrist Wraps. As with anything I make I infuse them with my healing/magick energy so you can tune into it whenever you need a little help. I am going to put them in our Gaia & The Ent Shop (at £3.50) on my website http://www.izzy-shaw-healer.com/.
Also I made some greeting cards using images from my own original art work. These went really well.The are blank inside to add your own greeting, but some (mostly the 'Lol & Lucy' range) have words on the front too.
These are 'The Elementals'.
I intend putting them on tote bags and maybe T Shirts, but for now the cards will be in the Gaia & The Ent shop at £2.50 each.
The 'Lol & Lucy' range are Lovey and Anniversary cards
This picture was one I originally created for our 25th wedding anniversary party invitations, just without the
'Happy Anniversary bit, and yes 'Lol' is based on Steve.
I have finally released a group of images that I drew when I was in a 'dark place' and couldn't talk about how I felt. These pictures were my only way of communicating my hurt.
I have called them 'LOST'.
'Silent Scream'
Many people on seeing the whole range of these pictures tell me that they can relate to certain ones in their lives. Some bought particular cards to take and show to family, partners, friends to help them understand just what they could not explain easily. I found it a little sad, but also felt glad that my images could help others too.
The whole of this set,10 in all, will be on my website shop tomorrow. Plus on Folksy under the shop name of Gaiatree and Etsy, shop name Gaia And The Ent.
