i am a maker.
i sit in a small room surrounded by paper people and creatures....

sometimes i let them go.
to good homes only..

each of the curious items you will see here are original and one off

they have been made using old, torn, reclaimed and beautiful papers and cloth with the odd item of old, found treasure....

Monday 22 September 2014

on every street...

there is a strange cat lady...


she is a loner but not alone, as she surrounds herself constantly with feline companions...
 they dance around her feet and sit upon her window sills guarding and protecting her.. 
and watching you..

nobody knows when she arrived on your street or when, if ever, she will leave...

folk whisper about her, they guess at her age but nobody knows for sure as she has looked *exactly* the same for what feels like forever..

each day she presents herself to the world just so
neat and tidy and reeking of perfume
there are those that say she tends to be a *little* overdressed
her bouffant is always perfect. and big.

you may not have noticed her on your particular street yet but rest assured the strange cat lady is there and once you see her you will see her
every.single.day...

{{the details}}

strange cat lady is a curious paper soul that has been sealed with varnish to protect her from damp and dust
she is dressed in a quirky hand knitted ensemble
complete with lace cuffs in order to waft away any unwanted cats from other streets

at the back of her cotton jumper she keeps a spare cat bell. just in case.

her large bouffant is tweaked into a style only ever seen on strange cat ladies and drag queens...

on this particular day she is wearing her most favourite cat brooch which shows a picture of her most prized (but sadly long, long deceased) black cat Roy..
she fished Roy out of the filthy canal 
or at least this is what she tells folk..
in reality she pinched him from the posh couple three doors down....

the curious paper cat dancing at her feet  is covered in precious liberty scraps

for the sum of £95 PLUS postage this strange cat lady and liberty puss could be yours :)
they will arrive in suitably glorious packaging

please message me for postage quotes or if you have any further questions

thank you for reading this tale.....
