Elizabeth Pawle is an illustrator and printmaker. She has sold her work at previous I Make Fun Stuff markets but has recently been absent from our events because she brought her beautiful baby Wilfred into the world. Now her little chap is growing up Elizabeth is finding the time to be creative again and make work to sell in her Etsy shop.

She is also moving in a new direction and has turned some of her illustrations into badges. Above is the polar bear, but he is only one of a variety of characters Elizabeth has been busy making.

We’re hoping she’ll be back with us soon for the Christmas Market!

These colourful hexagon brooches are carefully drawn, cut, glued and varnished by Jess of Cuppa Tea And Cake. They’re made from card hand decorated with colourful stripes, these are then cut into triangles and glued onto hand cut plywood. Finally they are given several coats of varnish to make them strong and durable and a brooch back pin. Jess also makes necklaces using these designs and will be doing new colour schemes soon too!
