I hope you all have a lovely weekend! I’m enjoying a mini break at the moment with my Husband. We just took a stroll through a beautiful park and stumbled across all of this beautiful wedding confetti. So cheerful! 🌼💕🍡 #wearenoths #abmlifeiscolorful

Wedding season is upon us! I’ve been printing lots of personalised bridesmaid cards recently and a few prints. I was a bride myself back in 2014 and it makes me very happy to know my work is part of such a special celebration! 💕 The ever expanding range can be viewed following the NOTHS link in my bio. #wearenoths #photoboardshq

I haven’t shared my new iPad Pro and apple pencil with you yet, have I?! It’s all pretty special and I’ve been doodling on it lots. My neck is feeling the pain 😂 but it’s worth it! It’s also massive - this photo doesn’t really show that! This rather peculiar looking bird was just something I was playing around with for personal use to get used to using it. I’ve been working on some card designs and can’t wait to upload them to the shop soon! *P.S If you’re wondering who I am, I’ve had a rebrand and have recently changed my business name from Paper Doily Party Shop* You can read about it on one of my previous posts if you’d like! ☺️ #wearenoths #adobedraw

Hi all! I’ve been pondering a business rebrand for quite a while now and have been silently working away on it! I’m pleased to announce the change from ‘Paper Doily Party Shop’ to ‘Rosefinch Studio.’ My business has changed direction in recent years and I wanted the name to reflect this. I’ve moved away from the party element of the business and have been specialising more in personalised stationery such as cards, prints and gift tags. I design and produce all of my products from my home studio in Somerset. Our house is very appropriately named...It’s called ‘Rosefinch House’ as you’ll see if you swipe to the next photo. We named the house when we moved in three years ago and this has influenced my new business name. I hope you approve of the change and will stick with me - I have lots of exciting things planned!

I think this is one of the best cards I’ve designed yet for @wearenoths ☺️ I can imagine it sitting very pretty on a nursery shelf or being placed in a special memory album for years to come.

I’ve been working away on new designs recently, I will share some progress pics with you all soon... However, I couldn’t resist showing you a very special crocheted cushion which was made with lots of love! I run a fortnightly crochet group in Bath, UK (there are approx 30 of us joined). Some of us grouped together and made this beauty to celebrate the third anniversary of the group. It’s going to live in the coffee shop we hold the meetup in. I do a fair bit of crochet in my spare time alongside running the shop and have a separate account @teacakeandcrochet if you’d like to see more! (apologies for cross posting). 🌼💕

Wow! I haven’t picked up a paintbrush since finishing art college many years ago. It feels great. I’m working on some new card designs for my @notonthehighstreet collection and thought I’d try something different 🎨 @wearenoths

Happy Valentine’s Day to all those celebrating! Here’s some crocheted heart envelopes I recently made to decorate our fireplace with! You may have seen these on my crochet account @teacakeandcrochet, where you’ll find the pattern reference. Sorry for the cross posting. I hope your day is filled with L O V E, laughter and happiness! ❤️

Happy Friday all! I’m in my workroom today on the computer working away on new designs. I’ve found it really difficult to get my creative juices flowing this year, but the bright sunshine today has inspired me to get going again and I have a lot of exciting plans to make a start on. Also, my Husband just made me a nice cup of tea and chose my favourite mug, so there’s lots of things to be happy about today. 💕

I run a fortnightly crochet meetup in @picnic_bath and yesterday evening we all made sunburst granny squares for a collaborative cushion to mark our third anniversary! As I work from home all week it’s so nice to socialise with like minded people over a cup of tea, delicious cake and colourful yarn!

A throwback to a yummy hot chocolate I was enjoying this time last year! It’s certainly the perfect weather for one.

Morning all! I hope you’re having a good day so far. I’ve received a replacement printer today (what a time for it to be unreliable, hey?!) and also this MASSIVE stamp delivery just arrived! This should keep me going until the end of this year I hope. 🇬🇧❤️

It’s Day 5 of #MeetTheMakerWeek and today’s prompts are ‘action/progress.’ I thought I’d use it to let you know what I’m currently doing! I spend a lot of time printing and packaging orders, in between working on new products, general admin, photography, social media, research and the list goes on.... I’ve sent out a LOT of cards this week and this is a snippet of one of those printed this morning whilst I was in the process of packaging it.

It’s day 4 of @joannehawker’s #MeetTheMakerWeek and today’s prompt is ‘Why?’ This is quite a personal post for me. These beautiful photos are from our wedding in 2014. At the time I was feeling a little lost career wise. I went through an extremely rough time at Chelsea College of Art and Design, London (the less said about that the better I’m afraid), but I still managed to graduate with a Textile Design degree in 2008 which I’m immensely proud of. After being advised to take a year out due to severe mental health issues caused by the course and lack of support and understanding from the lecturers, my creative juices just weren’t flowing when I’d finished the course. Whilst I felt relieved to have graduated, I also felt very deflated and worked in a variety of retail jobs in London for a few years afterwards, followed by a job working with students at a local University when we made the move to Somerset. As soon as we moved out of London, I found my creativity again which only heightened when we started planning our wedding. I did lots of crafting prior to the big day and I felt so happy and excited. I’d always imagined doing a creative job and it was at this point I decided to leave my full time job and open Paper Doily Party Shop. The business has evolved since then, but I’ll always remember why I started it and feel very grateful that it re sparked my creativity levels and improved my mental health! ❤️

It’s Day 3 of @joannehawker’s #MeetTheMakerWeek and today’s prompts are ‘When, Where and Workspace.’ This is a photo of my much loved peg board which lives above my desk and makes me smile every time I look at it. It’s from @blockdesign who I would recommend. I took this photo last Summer when my workroom was a lot more organised! Paper Doily Party Shop began after my wedding in 2014 when I became addicted to making handmade party decorations and left my full time administrative job at a University in Bath. It’s evolved quite a lot since then, but I will always remember why I started the business. I’m based in the small Somerset town of Shepton Mallet. I’m a real country girl at heart (addicted to watching Escape to the country 😂), and I fell in love with Somerset the minute we made the move from London. I run the business full time from a spare room at home. This works really well for me, I just need to get a little more organised!
