 Normal opening times will be resuming at Green's shortly- its been a bitterly cold month but it hasn't stopped us from finding and working on some great new furniture. We've had lots of lovely new things come and go in the shop in chilly March. We also have a new range of handmade cushions that we think add some spring colour to the place!
Here is a little selection-

Handmade Christmas


 



We've been busy enlisting the help of family and friends for some festive homemade christmas decorations which are in the shop now!

There are handmade papier mache baubles using old/unused (or garish!) christmas decorations- Just a few coats of paper and glue and then a glossy varnished finish. We've also made a very easy brown paper version handpainted in white gouache again using old baubles.

Another old favourite is salt dough for decorations, in this case we used cookie cutters for ease but hand-pressed shapes can be even nicer when they have a flattened rounded edge.
