Shirl's crafty creations nature inspired artistry & apothecary
Handcrafted with love, enchanted by nature and magic
Hi I'm Shirley! Ever since I was young, Ive had a passion for creating art. Life, however, kept me away from it for a while but during lockdown, I found myself reassessing everything. At 53, I became high-risk and my health led me back to my love for crafting. In January, I retired early at 55 to fully embrace my creative journey.
This decision not only reignited my artistic passion but also sparked a deeper connection with my spiritual beliefs and a desire for a simpler, more peaceful life. I'm now focused on living in harmony with nature, finding inspiration in it's beauty and creating art that reflects this journey .
I am excited to share my creations with you!

A selection of just some of my hand drawn & painted pieces that I have done using many different mediums. These include decoupaged images with a hand painted background onto canvas.
I started out using resin through lockdown although don't use it as much now, I am happy to offer this if there was a specific piece someone wishes to request.
These are very popular & I am happy to make any on request. They are great for brightening up the garden or add your house name or number to a plaque. All hand drawn and painted using acrylic pens or paints and set with varnish to make them weather proof
I have made loads for Christmas decorations, for hanging on Christmas trees, wall hangers etc.
just a few of the local craft fairs I have attended over the years here locally and I still attend different places during the year which I usually promote on my facebook page
I can make you your own spell jars , filled with my knowledge love and good intentions. spell jars for protection, self love, abundance, good luck, safe travels, home blessings. Same applies to the witch ball if you prefer something a bit different. Or if there is something you wish me to make for you we can discuss what it is you require.
TRINKET BOX CANDLES - I have collected some beautiful vintage trinket boxes I have bought from local charity shops and these I fill with natural wax (soy, beeswax or coconut) added essential oils of my choice and dried herds or flours with added crystals . they smell amazing and burn beautifully. TEA LIGHT CANDLES - I make these with ingredients that are promoting protection, self love, abundance, spiritual awakening or home blessing - I only use natural wax (beeswax, soy or coconut) . TAPERED CANDLES similar to the tea lights but just bigger & made with same good intentions
I will be offering naturally home made products using essential oils of my choice added to natural carrier oils such as jojoba, grapeseed, almond, avocado. olive or sunflower oil with added dried herbs or flowers and crystals relating to whatever the theme of the item. items I am able to offer at the moment - fly repellant roll on, car air freshener, home reed diffuser, made up bath soaks, lip balms, skin salves, infused oils for body, natural cleaning sprays & room fragrance sprays,
