Competition Winners!

Just a quick note to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who signed up for my mailing list over the last few
weeks! It's great to have so many of you on board!

There have been so many of you that I have decided to pick TWO LUCKY WINNERS at random.  They are Betty and Claire. So CONGRATULATIONS you two!! I will email you shortly to ask for your postal addresses and then send your Fairy Calendar off as soon as possible.

Have a great NEW YEAR everyone! and I'll be back soon!

FABULOUS COMPETITION!!

My Fairies of Much Pottering calendars have been a roaring success and before I sell out completely I thought I would give you a chance to win one of your own.

All you have to do for your chance to win one (worth £14.50) just visit my website - www.corinnephillips.co.uk  and add your name to my mailing list before 25th December

All names - including you lucky folk who already receive my newsletter! - will be put in a hat on Christmas Day and the winner will be notified by email and via this blog!

Thank you and Good Luck!

Results Just In!!

What a busy week I've had. I've only just got round to doing the Prize Draw.

Thanks to all of you lovely people who signed up for my mailing list recently. There was a fantastic response but, as they say on Ant and Dec's Push the Button - and indeed all quality quiz shows!! there can only be

three winners - OK so they normally say one - but I am no cheapskate!!

The Fairies have chosen the three lucky winners who are:

Jayne , Maria Paula and Suzie.

They win a set of three fairy brooches worth £15!

Thanks again to everyone who joined - and keep checking back

- Exciting things are afoot!!!

Competition Ends 1st March!

I thought I would share some of my latest Flea Market finds with you.

This delightful child's sewing machine is so cute.  The box has seen better days but

I just couldn't walk past it.

These are some gorgeous tins that I will use in my work at some stage.

I love the old text and graphics.

And here are a few other bits. Sorry it's not a brilliant photo.

The little bird is actually one of two that belonged to mum and dad.

There was a green one as well and they were on the Christmas tree lights.

We found this one whilst sorting out the attic. 

The little shoes - well I fell in love with them but I have absolutely no idea what

I will use them for - perhaps I was just feeling a little nostalgic.  My lot are growing up

so fast now.  Ruby is 14 on Tuesday! I can't believe it.

Thanks for all your supportive comments about the talk by the way!

It went well - I was nervous to start with but then got into the flow and actually quite enjoyed myself.

I'm glad it's over though!

The competition to win a set of Fairy Brooches ends tomorrow! So you don't have long to

sign up for my mailing list.  Just visit my website http://www.corinnephillips.co.uk/ and sign up and all

the names will go into a "hat" and 3 lucky winners will receive a set worth £15 each!!

Good Luck!

Knocking Knees!

My hubby and I actually managed to get away for a night WITHOUT KIDS over half term. We travelled down to Bath for the day and stayed in this pretty little pub called The White Hart at Ford which is about 30 minutes north of Bath.

Sorry about the quality of the photographs. It was very dark but I am a sucker for twinkly lights!

Whilst in Bath we came across this clothes store which had its window displays

absolutely packed full of vintage sewing machines.

There must have been at least 200! They looked stunning.

Everyone was taking photographs. Sorry about the reflections

but hopefully you get the idea!

Anyway the reason for the title to this post is that tonight I am due to give

a talk about my textiles/mixed media work!!! I haven't done this for at least

2 years and am getting a little nervous!

I am supposed to talk for an hour - which some of my friends will say would be

easy for me! - but I've tried and tried and it keeps coming out at 30 minutes.

Even when I try and pad it out it's still 30 minutes.

I'll just have to open the floor to questions and hope for the best.

Wish me luck!

Oh and by the way - don't forget to sign up to my mailing list to be

in with a chance of winning a set of 3 lovely fairy brooches.

Winners will be drawn on 1st March.

Competition Time!

I thought it was about time I ran another little competition!  So here goes ...

Everyone who signs up to my mailing list/newsletter on my website

win a set of Fairy Brooches worth £15!

The Closing Date is 1st March 2010 and there are three sets up for grabs.

First of all let me say how amazed I am at how many of you signed up for my newsletter this summer.
