Original gifts from artists, makers and designers. Saturday, 14 February 2015. New work by Hilke MacIntyre. 'house amongst fir trees'. House amongst fir trees' acrylic on canvas (30x30cm - set in black wooden frame, 33x33cm), £450. The last of our updates of new work by Fife-based artist Hilke MacIntyre.

Original gifts from artists, makers and designers. Friday, 16 August 2013. Looking for a new home. 65279; . That is, for my hoardings of knobs and handles. It's been about 6 years since I stopped working on furniture in the shop but although I've (mostly) rid myself of my collection of 'useful pieces of wood' I still have 14 years worth of knobs, handles and miscellaneous removed from various pieces of furniture pre-revamp. 65279; UPDATE: They've gone! And to someone who thought they were 'treasure'!

Original gifts from artists, makers and designers. Friday, 12 September 2014. Andrew jameson - photographer. A few weeks ago we were contacted by young 16 year old photographer Andrew Jameson who asked if he could take some pictures of the shop. Here are some of the photographs he took as he wandered around the shop with camera in hand. We were very impressed and hope to get him back later in the year. Thanks Andrew! Tuesday, 2 September 2014. If you keep doing the same thing, you'll get the same results".

Original gifts from artists, makers and designers. Thursday, 4 July 2013. As part of Perth Independents' Week this week shops in town were asked to make a display that would promote some aspect of summer in Perth. So with the help of my wooden husband (explanation below) we chose to go with the Perth Kilt Run. Perth, Scotland's attempt to snatch the world record for the largest number of kilted runners from our twinnies Perth, Ontario). Ps you can still vote for us as your favourite Perth shop here.

Original gifts from artists, makers and designers. Tuesday, 29 July 2014. In my younger days my brother and I would plonk ourselves down on a patch of grass and munch away on what we called 'juicy leaves' (no idea what they were but we both made it into adulthood).
