So its been a while…
Apologies, I crafted a couple of kids and raising them has been keeping me kind of busy.
But lockdown has given me a little time to allow me to update you on all the crafting I’ve being doing for fun (or sometimes therapy)… below are a few select photos.
There’s been paper crafts. knitting, cake decorating, sewing and a very out of control obsession for making pom poms.
Much love,
Zoey

I’ve been busy… sewing, working, stitching, breathing, baking, embroidering, quilting, laughing, walking, knitting, cooking, dancing, patchworking, cutting, driving, gardening, talking, sticking, socialising, sleeping and having the occasionally glass of vino (or two).
Next week I am off on my holidays (Port Logan here we come) and I am taking some projects with me and hopefully on my return the online shop will become a reality. Eventually… honestly. As I said, I’ve been busy.
So here are some photos of what has been occurring at the Rhodes Family Circus to keep you going for the meantime…

Greeting Circus Fans!
My sincere apologies for being a wee bit quiet on the blog front of late but a bad back has got in the way of my craft related plans for world domination. Thankfully I am on the mend now though and normal service will soon resume.
So the good news is…
The shop will be up and running eventually and (fingers crossed) so will I!

Happy New Year Circus Fans!
My apologies for not blogging sooner –it would appear it took me longer than usual to recover from the festive season.
So commissions are coming in thick and fast now. Thank you for all your support (and indeed patience as I juggle Circus work with my day job). 2012 was a great year for the Rhodes Family Circus and I’m hoping that 2013 goes well too.
In the next couple of months I am hoping to get an online shop underway to make it easier for you to order your favourite items and organise commissions.
As always, to keep yourself updated on all the circus news, use the link at the bottom of this page to sign up for blog updates via email.
Bye for now.

Wowsers!
I cannot tell a lie, I am exhausted… such fun though.
Two Christmas Markets in two days.
Saturday was Julefest at Clifford Primary School, which was amazing. The entire school was decked out in a scandinavian christmas style. I met lots of lovely people and stall holders too.
On Sunday I returned to the Nether Edge Market and was delighted to see so many people braving the cold weather. I myself, have yet to defrost.
GREAT TIMES!
Julefest Saturday 1st Decemeber 2012
Carter the Cat wants you…
…To come to Julefest!
