I am quite excited about...
....new scarves! If you are coming to the Craftacular on Sunday then you will be the first to see them in person. They'll be available in the shop next week:
BUST!
I should have posted this a little earlier in the week but time seems to be running away with me somewhat at the moment...
This weekend I am packing some bags full of Bonbi goodies and heading to the big smoke of London to set up shop at the BUST Magazine Christmas Craftacular, which I am very excited about. We had a great time at the summer one and I am anticipating a good fun weekend!
The Craftacular is at the York Hall in Bethnal Green (a short hop, skip and jump from the tube station!) and there will be 70 stalls selling the wares of independent designers and makers from across the country along with crafty workshops, a bar, dj's and dancing...if you are in the area do come along, it's only £2 to get in and the first 100 through the door get a free goodie bag too!
If you do come along, come and say hello to me and Mark -->
I will have a 29 project update soon for you...it may be before I go or it may be when I get back. So much for my resolve to keep on top of it on a more regular basis eh? Anyway, either way I have lots to show you!

29 Project: Days 177 - 180
The forthcoming weekend is going to be quite busy for me I think, there will be some printing with friends, curry eating, horse duties amongst other things, and I have some new drawings swimming around in my head that I want to get down. I hope to be able to show some peeks next week...I hope everyone has a great weekend!
In the meantime, here is the latest installment of the 29 project: Days 177 - 180.
Day 177: Monday 15th November - New jewellery. I made up some batches of these today, they are detailed in my last blog post and are now available in the shop!
Day 178: Tuesday 16th November - Riding. I have got Miss Pia to look after for the next couple of weeks. We are training hard for a competition at the beginning of December and she is also learning new things - flying changes & half pass for those in the know. It's very exciting.
Day 179: Wednesday 17th November - Parade of Lights. It's not the best picture (from my phone I'm afraid) but on Wednesday evening we went to Truro's parade of lights. It had a dragon theme and there were some impressive entries! Thankfully, since it was so cold Mark and I and some friends managed to book a table at Pizza Express that was timed nicely with the parade and watched the whole thing from the warmth of the restaurant. Win indeed!
Day 180: Thursday 18th November - I returned home from a long day to find this beautiful Rob Ryan exhibition card in the post box. My friend Laura had been to the show and nabbed one for me. She is very lovely.

New jewels...
There are new jewels in the shop, fanfare!
The first is a pretty pendant necklace based on the very popular Agate Necklaces which have all sold out. (I am trying to source some more Agates before Christmas - Stay tuned!). I found these fabulous Ametrine rough faceted slabs which are really so pretty and gave them the same vintage brass square treatment as the Agates. Nice and simple. You can see and shop these HERE.
My Fly High Bracelets also now come in two more colours: Blue Opal and Jet. I hope you like them...see them in the Jewels section of the shop...
In other news, you will be able to listen to me waffle on about how I started Bonbi Forest and other things in a radio interview soon...I shall let you know when and where, when I know.

Long time no squeak! 29 project: Days 167 - 176
I have a BIG 29 project update here and apologies for the not so great quality of some of the photos...My photography is always a bit hit and miss!
It's been a busy week, what with dressage lessons on Pia, a competition, lots of printing and making and getting things stocked up for Christmas, and other familial things going on, which was ended with a fun weekend in a big house with lots of friends on a cliff top near the most southerly point in the UK. Phew!
Anyway, here you go: 29 project - Days 167 - 176...
Day 167: Friday 5th November - Sorry, it's not fireworks, I missed out on that this year. Sob! But I did get to ride Pia instead which is always fun. We had a late afternoon lesson and by the time I got home it was too late for fireworks...here she is with my mama waiting for me to let them out of the lorry...
Day 168: Saturday 6th November - Sunset over the A30. I had another lesson and the sunset on the way home was pretty spectacular. Have I mentioned that I do love the light at this time of year? (Ha, many times, I know!)
Day 169: Sunday 7th November - Reviewing the lessons. I like to have any lessons I have videoed so that I can look over them again and refresh my mind with what I have learned...also to watch and see that what I am feeling from on top is right with what it looks like from the ground. Pia is learning new things at the moment so it's all very exciting!
Day 170: Monday 8th November - Printing printing lots of Triangle Dogs today and making lots of Autumn bracelets too.
Day 171: Tuesday 9th November - Spicy noodle soup! It's an awful picture, sorry, but my first attempt at noodle soup was a flavoursome (and really, really spicy) success! Yay.
Day 172: Wednesday 10th November - Smiling Kizzie. Mark and I went around to his mama's house to make her some food...this is her poocher, Kizzie giving us a grin.
Day 173: Thursday 11th November - Wrapped paintings. Off to a new home this week...
Day 174: Friday 12th November - Off for the weekend! The house my friends and I stayed in for the weekend was super. It is perched on the cliff overlooking Kennack Sands down near The Lizard in West Cornwall and it was really lovely. All wood paneled walls, wood burners and sea views. Here's a (not great again!) pic of us settling in for an evening by the fire...
Day 175: Saturday 13th November - We took a walk to blow away the cobwebs...there was streams to cross, lots of mud, and ponies by the beach. The rest of the day was spent with beer, knitting, crochet, magazines, curry and early hours fireworks. Ace.
Day 176: Sunday 14th November - Sunday seaside sun. The sun came out at last and the view was beautiful!
There are more pics of printing and walking over at my Flickr too.
Also, just a little heads up: Brass Autumn Bracelets are now back in stock and I also added a few new Agate Necklaces to the shop on Friday. You can see and shop them here: JEWELS!

29 Project: Days 160 - 166
These latest 29 project pics were meant to get to you in two separate posts, but alas time ran away with me and so now you have them all in one go. Lucky you!
Before I start, don't forget the Grand Autumn Sale I have running in the shop at the moment: 20% off all orders over £10 until midnight GMT on Sunday, just enter the code AUTUMN at checkout, easy!
29 project: Days 160 - 166...
Day 160: Friday 29th October - Friday night silliness. My cousin Chloe and her boy Justin made dinner for Mark and I, my brother, his lady and our friend Stan, and whilst out shopping for it decided she would quite like some Neopolitan ice cream for afters. Unable to find any she bought us these wafers with a Neopolitan filling. The wafers were horribly soft, the ice cream was tasty and of course we built a tower from them. It wasn't meant to look quite so, er...like it does...
Day 161: Saturday 30th October - New ride! After our little smash the other week mark and I were very generously given a car by a friend of his mum's...how nice and amazing is that?! Mark went to pick it up and now we are back to zooming about at our own whim and fancy and not having to borrow cars or beg for lifts.
Day 162: Sunday 31st October - Halloween! We didn't have a pumpkin this year but went around to our friends house (whose little girl's 2nd birthday it was) and encountered this scary looking creation instead...The little birthday girl looked at it and said 'Happy birthd...?' rather more unsure than pleased with it's arrival in her kitchen!
Day 163: Monday 1st November - A peek at new work. I didn't take a photograph today! I forgot!! But instead I have a screen shot of a new design I have been working on. More horses and equine friends. All shall be revealed soon.
Day 164: Tuesday 2nd November - Hiders all wrapped. I have mentioned it before but when I sell an original piece of work, I like to send them off all wrapped in some protective hand printed fabric and wrapped up like a treat. I printed up this piece in navy and white and my Hiders drawing was sent off to it's new home looking like this:
Day 165: Wednesday 3rd November - New stones! The pretty agate necklaces I added to the shop last week sold out in a flash! The good news is that if you missed out last time I received a delivery of new beauties and will have them in the shop next week, hurrah! Look at the other gorgeousness too, I have plans afoot for those guys...
Day 166: Thursday 4th November - Fresh business cards and a very lovely garden sunset. I have two pictures of today because I just couldn't pick! I hand printed a fresh batch of business cards. I love all their colours when they are together...and the second picture was taken while I was prowling around the garden in the last of the sunlight taking pictures for new work. So pretty.
I hope everyone has a good weekend and enjoy the fireworks tonight!

** Grand Autumn Sale **
Hello everyone, I hope you had a good weekend? Today is proving to be a bit of a busy one, I hope to have a 29 project update for you later, but it may have to wait until tomorrow, we shall see...
In the meantime with Autumn well underway, it is high time there was a little treat from me to you and here it is: The Grand Autumn Sale!!
You can receive 20% off any order over £10 if you wish, by entering the code AUTUMN at checkout until Midnight on Sunday 7th November...Sounds about right to me for gathering a few early bird Christmas stocking fillers and pressies!
P.S, there is only ONE of the Agate Necklaces that I added to the site last week left! **EDIT: All sold out now!** I hope to have more before Christmas, but I'm not entirely sure when that will be...

29 Project: Days 157 - 159
Goodness, it's been a busy week! I've done lots of printing for Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip (who are fast running out of the tees I created for them on tour!) and adding new jewellery to the shop as well.
The agate necklaces I showed you a short while ago are now in the shop...they are each one of a kind and so, so pretty. There are only five of them at the moment, you can see and shop them HERE!
There is another new necklace in the shop too called 'Collection' and I have also created a new bracelet called 'November' as it has a Citrine stone which is the birthstone of November...I think it would make an ace present for November born ladies! As well as the gorgeous golden Citrine it has two vintage brass beads and three little feathers...See both of these pretty pieces in the jewels section of the Bonbi Forest shop too...
Right, on with the 29 project: Days 157 - 159...
Day 157: Tuesday 26th October - Autumn Light. I know a lot of people like Autumn, for it's crispness and the cuddles of cozy knits, but being a bean who feels the cold somewhat more than most, Spring and the promises of warm sunshine it brings with it is my favorite time of year...however no other time of year quite beats Autumn for the quality of the light at either end of the day. I do love that.
Day 158: Wednesday 27th October - Lou Lou again. Being cheeky in the garden...I think that like me, she was marvelling at the colour of those leaves!
Day 159: Thursday 28th October - Fabric testing. I have a new fabric that I have never printed on before so I whipped out some of my pattern screens and printed a little test strip and the result was perfect...
More on Monday folks, have a great weekend!

29 Project: Days 152 - 156
As promised earlier here are the weekend's 29 project updates! I put a few extra pictures of boats and dramatic morning vistas over at my Flickr page too...
29 project: Days 152 - 156...
Day 152: Thursday 21st October - Reindeer vs Horse Stand Off. Sketching and sticking etc...
Day 153: Friday 22nd October - Room with a view. It was Mark's birthday this last weekend and on Friday we were out in Falmouth seeing friends. We were lucky beans indeed and had a night in the Greenbank Hotel courtesy of Mark's papa...this is the view from our room:
Day 154: Saturday 23rd October - A present bundle for my beau on his birthday. I hand printed some wrapping paper and tied it up all pretty which was much fun to do! We had a great day seeing family for lunch and then on to our friend's house where we had a homemade Indian feast and Tuscan Mules...
Day 155: Sunday 24th October - (not a great picture, sorry!) Theatre Royal. Another birthday weekend surprise for Mark was organised by our friend Rob who bought him a ticket to see Stewart Lee in Plymouth! So a gang of us went to the Theatre Royal, which was much smaller than I remembered. Last time I went was to see The Nutcracker ballet with my dad when I was about 8 and it seemed like the biggest theatre I could ever have imagined...
Day 156: Today, Monday 25th October - C H R I S T M A S C A R D S!! I have been itching to get these in the shop, and today I finished 'em up, hurrah! They are now available as a set of 6 HERE!

Frames and agates...
I hope everyone had a good weekend? We had a lovely one...it was Mark's 30th birthday so we spent it flitting about seeing family and friends which was sooopa fun! I have a 29 project update lined up for later today which features the weekend's frolics, and also a peek at new Christmas cards. I meant to release these last week, but due to a printer/card argument I had to put that back a little bit, but ready they now are!
In the meantime I have finally gotten around to framing my original Pegasus and Hiders drawings and they are now available in the shop. Both of these drawings have little white on white details which don't come across on any of the other goodies I have for sale of these guys as it's so subtle...so these two are a bit special!
Hiders:
Pegasus:
I also have a limited batch of fabulous new agate necklaces coming to the shop soon too which will be followed by a new jewels update later this week...
I LOVE these.

29 Project: Days 149 - 151
Well, today has been a bit eventful...Mark and I had a little smash in the car, nothing serious but the car appears to be a write off. We are both fine and it is more of an inconvenience than anything. Buses in this area are few and far between (just 4 of them a day!) so I will be seeking lifts and borrowing rides to the studio and post office until we can sort ourselves out.
Oh well, I did say I wanted a new car, I just didn't think the old one would have to be wrecked to get one! Be careful what you wish for folks...
In better news I have sourced something I have been waiting an age to find at a decent price for an exciting upcoming project, hurrah!
Anyway, here are the latest 29 project pictures: Days 149 - 150...
Day 149: Monday 18th October - Leaves I like. This is why these kinds of leaves are in my head and in my work so often. They are subliminally force fed to me every Autumn when I walk down the path to the stables! I don't even know what they are!
Day 150: Tuesday 19th October - Leopard Cat. Tiger Cat. Sketching for stuff.
Day 151: Wednesday 20th October - Double Rainbow. I took this right before our smash (I wasn't driving by the way!). I think it was the rainbows fault, or maybe me squealing about how pretty it was...

Twilight Ride...
Here is a little peek at something new I am working on whenever I have a spare moment or two...that is alongside the other projects I have on the go at the moment as well. Ideas are flowing fast at the right now and I am trying to make the most of them! Yay.

29 Project: Days 143 - 148
I have met up with a few people recently who I haven't seen in a while and they have asked me what I have been up to of late. As usual my mind has drawn a blank and I say 'Oh you know, working, riding a bit...oh yeah, I sold Lauder'. So I had a look back on my 29 project (and all of the other pictures I have stored in my Iphoto along the way...) and realised there are lots of things there that I would never have thought to have taken a picture of before I was doing this, and little details I would have long since forgotten. I'm enjoying this project very much.
29 project: Days 143 - 148...
Day 143: Tuesday 12th October - Winners! I rode my best and Pia danced her best and we won not one, but two dressage classes today on very good scores indeed...regional championships here we come!
Day 144: Wednesday 13th October - Photography Corner...You may (or may not have!) noticed that I have gradually been re-photographing lots of things in the shop. This little corner of my studio is where I make the picture magic happen...
Day 145: Thursday 14th October - Screen Making. I had lots of little bits of work and jobs to get done today...It's not the most interesting or pretty picture I'm afraid, but re-making this screen was one of them!
Day 146: Friday 15th October - The Railway. Mark and I were up in Devon this last weekend visiting his dad. On Friday night we went to a lovely pub called The Railway Inn which is always a delight.
Day 147: Saturday 16th October - Exeter Cathedral. A trip into Exeter for the afternoon. I spent lots of money on warm winter wearables!
Day 148: Sunday 17th October - Horsebox Roast. Back in Cornwall again and we went round to my folks house for a dinner of roast lamb. The aga had stopped working though and my mum had to make a roast for six people in the tiny oven in the horsebox! I don't know how she did it, it was delicious...
As usual there are a few more pictures over at my Flickr...I hope to have some new bits and pieces to show you this week. Stay tuned!

29 project: Days 143 - 148...
Day 143: Tuesday 12th October - Winners! I rode my best and Pia danced her best and we won not one, but two dressage classes today on very good scores indeed...regional championships here we come!
Day 144: Wednesday 13th October - Photography Corner...You may (or may not have!) noticed that I have gradually been re-photographing lots of things in the shop. This little corner of my studio is where I make the picture magic happen...
Day 145: Thursday 14th October - Screen Making. I had lots of little bits of work and jobs to get done today...It's not the most interesting or pretty picture I'm afraid, but re-making this screen was one of them!
Day 146: Friday 15th October - The Railway. Mark and I were up in Devon this last weekend visiting his dad. On Friday night we went to a lovely pub called The Railway Inn which is always a delight.
