Hi all,

The Norther Rivers will be one of the areas that will be out of Lockdown from  tomorrow Saturday 11th Sept 21.  My commiseration to all those who are still not able to move freely. I have a Daughter, Son-in-law and small Grandson in Sydney and can't wait to see them all, sooner rather than later Sending Love.

Thank you to all my loyal customers, plus a few new ones who have supported me during this trying time.  I hope you have either received your parcel or it is on its way. Hope you enjoy the pieces you have chosen. Thanks also to those who have let me know that they are already thinking about Christmas and will have a look at what I have.  Remember, I can send your gift directly to that Special Person and include a handmade card and gift wrap it at no charge.

I have had emails all morning advising that many Galleries are re opening itomorrow

Hi all,

Hope you are all coping as well as can be expected in these trying times.

The last 18 months, since the first lockdown in Australia from 23rd March 2020, has been a bit of a disaster for small Arts and Crafters.  Most Craft Fairs have been cancelled and all Galleries have been closed for various lengths of time.

I am now sitting at home in my Studio with lots of new piece made, ready for my Biggest Craft Fair of the year - The Alstonville Quota Craft & Garden Fair. Sadly, both for the stallholders and Quota, their Fair has been cancelled for the second year in a row.  

All four Galleries where I display and sell my Pearls are Closed until further notice, or whenever we come out of lockdown - an unknown.

Two Galleries have website and you can purchase pieces they have in their Galleries when the lockdown was announced.

Coldstream Gallery - Ulmarra NSW   www.coldstreamgallery.com.au

Creative Artisans GAllery - Ballina NSW   www.creativeartisans.org.au

I am loading many new pieces onto my website so that you can have a look and if you like a piece, purchase it. 

I can also make to order, as long as I have the Pearls in stock.

I have also been making Face Masks (I was a Dressmaker in a past life)

Have a look at what I have or contact me at [email protected] or M:0400 501 347

Cheers and stay Safe,

Ann

Ferry Park is on the Pacific Highway, at the southern turn of f to Maclean in Northern New South Wales.  If you are travelling Brisbane/Sydney or the other way on the Pacific Highway, you have to pass it.  It is 3 hours from Brisbane and about 7 hours from Sydney.
