Hello again my lovelies! And here I am as advertised! It’s time to get a cuppa and find out all the excitement that’s coming your way in 2022!
But first the serious bit! Over the last few years I have got busier and busier, you have commissioned me to make – well everything! Here’s some of my faves….



This has been fantastic but my poor arthritic hands and elbows have taken a hit, and I’ve been having steroid injections into joints to keep going .
Which is fine ( I have a lovely dr who does them) but not a situation that can continue forever.
So, from January I shall be limiting my commission orders to two per month and I’ll let you know when those spaces have been filled .
What happens if they don’t get filled?
For a start I shall be making stock for the shop and I shall be bringing you some of the designs that I keep promising, like this one….

And maybe more things you or your little ones can wear, like this ….

Plus of course making things for Epic Bizzi Box like these …….

Let’s talk about paintings now, I have loved the commissions I’ve done this year, like these…….


I want to extend this part of my business this year, because it’s not quite as stressful on my joints, I shall taking more commissions and testing out whether I can paint some landscapes and flowers😊
While we are on the subject of testing, I have started doing some digital illustration …….

I’d like to try some portraits digitally and I will be looking for testers for these 😊
Finally, I am going to write a book! Welcome to Darcey’s Wood will come out next year, to be followed by Milo’s magical forest, both centring around the wood near our house!
I’ve actually got a free ebook coming out at the end of this month, here’s a sneak peek …….

Thanks for reading and I hope you are as excited as me for the New Year!
Kisses

Oh wait! There’s one more thing, there might just be a couple of ideas for subscription boxes on the boil, here’s the vision board so far….
