The Crackled Horse Company: January 2009

My Boudoir!

I wanted a 30's to 50's eclectic mix of Hollywood Glamor. The colours arnt so great but my lamps were my latest find and I love them!

Little things that make me happy from around my house.

Inside Gruyere Castle.

The Crackled Horse Company: Tunbridge Wells, Kent, United Kingdom; I am a 36 yr old busy Mum of 2 little imps, Corben almost 4 and Heidi just 1, living in Tunbridge Wells. The Crackled Horse is my cottage business of gifts and Christmas decorations which started as a hobby and one little horse. Although a full time Mummy, I wind down by painting and hand decorating, even making my products. Usually, I sell them at school fairs and to friends who know me. I take my inspiration from Switzerland, where my parents live and love to take photographs when Im there. That is where I found my little horse... looking lonely and un-loved in a Swiss Brocante... chipped paint, rusty wheels and one thread of horse hair for a tail. I gave him TLC and put him in my sons nursery and the rest is history! Iove making and decorating cakes for all occasions, gardening and art and craft, sewing for home and wearing, antique and flee markets and anything "vintage". Thanks for reading my blogg, nice to meet you! Take a look at my website www.crackledhorse.co.uk as Im adding pictures all the time.
