ReJenisis and the Bobs!

Well what a busy holiday! So sad all that creative time will be limited now as back to work! Still I have had fun! ReJenisis has become quite a thing! feel free to pop over to  http://www.facebook.com/ReJenisis  to find out all the goodies I have been making.

The Recycled nature of the products I have created has really captured peoples attention and it is so lovely to have so many new fans who are enthused about the ethos of giving something recyclable a breath of new life!

ReJenisis also made it's first sales since opening it's virtual doors and that provided huge amounts of excitement! mainly involving me skipping around the house!

The next exciting bit of holiday news has to be the Bobs!!!

The Bob revolution has certainly taken over our house! What started as a fun summer holiday activity has evolved into something so much bigger! The Bobs have their own page on facebook, http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Bobs/411736175550743 there are fab iconic pictures featuring some of the many unique Bobs ...

'Bobby Road'

'Bobs on a girder over London'

They have even starred in their own video!

Hope you enjoy!!!

Would be lovely if you pop over and say hi to the Bobs, they do get so lonely!! And if you feel in a kindly mood then why not rehome one of the little monsters!

There are even a few Christmassy ones ready to look fab on your Christmas tree!

Summer holidays 2012

Good morning bloggers! Well what a busy week! I have been getting a few fab commissions which has been wonderful, so nice to feel like I am not barking up the wrong tree all together! lol.

 I have also been doing a little illustrating again for my Pip and Custard books...

 as well as designing a new logo for my Rejenisis line.

Oh and finally my daughter and I have been introducing the world to the Bob's!

I am going to look into creating a range of Bob cards I think! might be fun!
As you can see it has been a busy summer holidays already! Have you been up to anything fun? Anything creative?? Please post any pics here of an creative adventures you have had so far! I would love to see them! xx

A bit more bunting!

Well back from 2 lovely short breaks and thought I should get on with trying to clear the craft room! I can't believe the mountain of carrier bags that people have collected for me! I thought the best thing to do as step one was to create some more bunting! Here are a couple of pics of my latest colourful pieces.

I know the pics are a bit dark but the only colours i haven't done yet it seems are purples and pinks!

So what to do now?? I think I will sit down for a bit of drawing, something different before tackling the craft room again tomorrow!

Carrier bags bunting

Well what a wonderful change in the weather! The sun has inspired me to be all creative and here is my latest creation! Bunting...and what's more it is recycled from plastic carrier bags!!! I have used several different bags and created patterns using coloured bags.  Bonus to the plastic bunting is it doesn't matter if they get wet! I do suspect that the sun will eventually have the same effect on the colours as it does with bags left outside but only time will tell!

I wonder if you can guess which bags I used??

Here's a close up to help!

Just a couple more items for ReJenisis.

ReJenisis

Sorry I haven't blogged in such a long while! creativity left me for a while but is now back with attitude (hopefully for good, LOL)
I have been inspired by my original recycling challenge and been creating more items, all using upcycled materials.  I have a new name for my upcycled range ...ReJenisis.  Hope you like!

All these bags are made using clean upcycled fabrics and upcycled buttons.  Most bags have an inside pocket and a security clip to attach your keys or inner bag too.

All these lovely designs are created from upcycling water bottles!  Recycling doesn't have to mean ugly results!!

Well hope you all had a great Christmas.  Didn't the time go quickly, amazing how time flies when you are busy stuffing your face with a wondrous assortment of goodies!

Well this year I have been turning my hand to a bit of illustrating, spending lots of time finishing a book project I started more than 6 years ago! I may even get it finished one day! lol The Characters of my book are a little girl, Pip  (not unlike my own little girl) and her dog, (she has a little toy dog) called custard.
Pip and Custard are going to get up to lots of adventures in order to help teach young children about all sorts of things. From safety with fireworks to how to cook a yummy cake!

I have also been busy trying to create cartoon strips with Pip and Custard.  Here are the first two, see what you think!!
