I hardly dare mention the C word before December but organised folk might want to know I now have Christmas Cards for sale in my website shop.
All website purchases will help towards a festive donation to the wonderful RNLI. (10% of the profits from Christmas card sales)
I am badly behind in keeping you updated, so here are some dates:
Right Now;
There is a fabby pop-up gallery/shop open in Maldon (where the salt comes from) featuring my stuff and other nauticalia alongside Den Phillips' black and white photos of the East Coast and classic yacht scene. Do go along if you are anywhere near; Maldon is a sweet market town, home to a fleet of Thames sailing barges and the infamous Maldon Mud Race (piccies here and here). The Salty Dogs shop is a veritable feast of all things boaty and arty.
Salty Dogs 2013 venue is:
11 Market Hill, (top left facing down Market Hill), Maldon, Essex. CM9 4PZ
Shop opens today and runs until Tues Dec 31st.
Open Mon-Sat 10.00am to 5.00pm.
(also open on Sundays in December 10am to 4pm).
Next Weekend;
I will be manning (womaning?) my stall at our local NSPCC Christmas Fair.
"Mersea's answer to the Country Living Fair", this fair is always a smorgasbord of gifty goodness, come along and say hi if you are hereabouts.
Sat 23rd November 2013, 10am-2pm at Mersea Island School. CO5 8QX.
Also Mersea Island Museum are holding their annual art exhibition (from Friday 22nd - Sun 24th November). You might find more than a stuffed owl and a Roman coin...
