Red and Green Sari Bunting

This is the Red and Green Sari Bunting at the New Yard Bistro at Trelowarren. Ally didn't want to use tinsel so the bunting was a perfect alternative! They looked amazing along side Ally's willow balls that she got from Cornish Willow in Launceston.

Pink Silk Heart Pendants




Absolutely gorgeous and finished off with gold spotted ribbon for extra glitz! Very girly and romantic. The string that they hang from is made from a turquoise sari for added funkyness. These hearts have decorated a few live music performances and have even decorated a dance podium for a wedding at Bishops Quay on the Helford!

"Thanks so much for the lovely bunting, the pink hearts looked especially gorgeous". VH, St.Martin.

Cornish Blue and White Stripe bunting




Inspired by Cornish tea cups and generally being by the sea! Made from canvas and old sail remnants, they really do add a nautical feel to a venue.

"Thanks for the gorgeous bunting, will be back for more!"CC, Sussex.

Festival Rockets




Made from a crazy Indian skirt I found. These are 10 perfect little windsocks with beautiful tails. They look fantastic attached to the top of bamboo poles for a grand entrance or strung from a tree for a special feature at a party.

I have just put swivals on them for extra twirliness!

Vintage Tea Party Bunting


This set was originally created for The Vintage Cook in Lostwithiel. Angie picked out the fabrics, bought from Country Gingham in Truro, and then I got busy making! They looked fantastic strung up above her beautiful antique mismatching china. Here you can see them up for a wedding at Tremerlyn on the Helford river.
"The bunting was absolutely perfect and looked fantastic. Thank you so much - I shall definitely
recommend you to others in the future." CG, London.

Red and Green Sari bunting



These are probably my favorite set of the entire collection! Here they are decorating the front of South restaurant in Manaccan. They look so medieval when hung against natural stone or wood.

"Wow! Your bunting transformed the restaurant, thanks". AL, Trelowarren.

Pink and Gold Gypsy Charm Flags



The Gypsy Charm flags are made from a huge collection of reclaimed fabrics I'd found and thrifted over the years! It was such fun making them as all the contrasting textures and patterns really are very pleasing to the eye. Some flags have gold embroidery and look heavenly when they catch the sunlight.

"Thanks for the funky flags, they made all the difference". RB, Roseland.

White Wedding Bunting




These were made specially for a couple celebrating their marriage at Trelowarren. My brief was to design and make some plain white cotton bunting to decorate the restuarant. I used reclaimed fabrics and alternated the sizes of the flags to great effect. They have a very romantic feel to them!

It's amazing how different they look with a bit of wind behind them.

Red Silk Heart Pendants




These were made using two vintage saris and some old French ribbon. They have decorated various venues including the New yard Bistro at Trellowarren for Valentines and the main runway for a bridal fashion show. The silk and French ribbon evoke feelings of pure love and luxury all at the same time!

"They really set the scene for our Valentines menu at the resaurant, thanks". AL, Trelowarren.

Boat Flags

Boat bunting for cheering up the H.R.S.C. club house on a rainy regatta day!




















These flags were made for dressing the pilot cutters for a race in St.Mawes this summer. They look great but we are going bigger and better next time!
