Rachel's Cosy Corner

"After spotting this bunny on Pinterest, I pretty much stalked Rachel's Cosy Corner, until I found her shop on the Silk Purse Guild. Rachel's work is astonishing, I collect crochet, and this lady is at the very top of her game!"

Steven Gent Art

"Hi there, I spotted this painting on SPG some time ago and loved it so when Keith (hubby) asked what I wanted for my birthday I jumped right in. When it came I was blown away with the amazing art work. Stephen was super quick on postage, came a day after the order went in. Many thanks from a very satisfied customer 😊"

"I am absolutely astonished by this commissioned piece. I am unable to describe the detail, as it is truly mind blowing. I have been craving a portrait to remember the late great Sir Terry Pratchett for a long time now, and I have not been disappointed. Off to the framers I go, to hang this in pride of place next to my Discworld bookcase. Thank you Kevin Hayw..." Read more

"My friend was feeling down and as soon as I saw the snail in Rachel's shop I knew it would cheer her up. I asked for it to be sent directly to my friend with a cryptic note, Rachel couldn't have been more helpful. Thank you for an exceptional service x"

Charley Dog Designs

"I was determined this year, to replace all of my old hand me down decorations. I set out to snaffle new decorations that I would love year after year. I grabbed 2 Chocolate orange covers by Charley Dog designs and wish I had bought more. They make me smile every time I look at them, snuggled together in my tree. Thank you Di"
