Most of the money I've earned from writing Super Cute Felting will be spent on sensible/boring things like paying rent and bills and taxes (I'm doing my accounts this week: ugh!) ... but I wanted to spend it on something special, too.
I always have a long wish list of prints from artists and illustrators I've discovered on Etsy or elsewhere online, so I decided to treat myself to some art:
A fox and a wren from KateFete.
Kate's work is so charming, if you're a bird fan you must check out her lovely brooches.
Seed and Sow from Swallowfield. Just gorgeous.
And three birdie prints from Geninne.
I bought some of Geninne's birds a few years ago, they're on display in our kitchen, I love them and they're always much admired by visitors.
As well as enjoying these prints for their own awesomeness I'll always connect them with that lovely happy "finished book" feeling. I can't wait for them to arrive!
Have you bought any art / discovered any artists on Etsy lately?

Thankyou! & thanks for the feature x
I just recently saw some of Kates work in the flesh at a small gallery up in Milton Keynes! There was a large display of her gorgeous collaged birds and brooches and I just fell in love with her work there and then =)
Someone on twitter sent me a link to pics of the exhibition, all those birds look so amazing together!
