I have a friend called Susie. She was a customer of ours but after meeting her we soon became friends. She is a very special lady, very creative and talented and with a beautiful way of thinking and living. She makes the most incredible teddy bears. I have not included the link to her website because it is being re-designed but when it is completed, i will share it with you. She has opened a shop in Ringwood and Paul and I went there to drop of a piece of furniture she bought for her new shop. There are 2 rooms in the shop, the first room is full of many handcrafted items including adorable little handmade fairies, along with lots of spiritual gifts and fair trade items. (I beleive she is looking for other handmade items to go into the shop so if anyone is interested, send me an email and i will pass it on to her.)
When I walked into the second room, I fell in love with it. It is a different style compared the first room but she intends to add more fairies to the room to keep a bit inline with the other part of the shop. Either way, the room is gorgeous. My photos honestly do not do it justice ( I hate that cliche but it is true).
She has several pieces of furniture in there which she has bought from us over the last couple years and in the center of the room is her stunning antique French bed ( Yes, another old French bed!) and the bed is covered with beautiful cushions, blankets, quilts and the most wonderful array of teddy bears, many of which are susies own creations.
There are many other "stuffed" little creatures around the room. Susie has done such an incredible job in decorating this room. When we decorated the furniture, this is just the kind of pretty room I saw it in. What a beautiful display room she has made for her lovely items.
She probably wont like me showing these pics because she had only just opened the shop and she thought it looked a mess, but I just loved it the way it was. If you ever get to ringwood, the name of her shop is Heavenly Creations, stop by and say hi.
