“My work is a reminder to STOP, to slow down and reconnect with nature.” 💚 Embedded in nature and made with intention, Enamel Factory’s work captures the beauty of slow and mindful making. Using vitreous glass enamel fused onto metal, each piece is layered with colour, texture and meaning. 💚 Inspired by the sea, the garden and quiet moments of reflection, these pieces invite you to pause, to enjoy your surroundings and take a break. 💚 Brighter Days Market 📍 Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 April, 10am to 4pm at Pie Factory Margate, 5 Broad Street, 5 Broad Street, Margate CT9 1EW @enamelfactory @brighterdaysmarkets @piefactorymargate Portrait by @stevenjacksonstudio

Hello 👋 #ColourFriday @hollytucker It’s that time of year again when I ask you to think about us small one man band makers! It is such a privilege to be a maker ❤️ but boy it’s tough!! The easy thing would be to walk away as the world is a really hard place to have a small business right now!! BUT on days like this when I know there is more going on to support me outside my little studio in Kent it motivates me to keep trucking! This is for all those AMAZING and very patient makers out there doing your thing! I see you and I support you! If you buy just ONE thing from an independent business this Christmas you will be doing a good thing! NO discounts just extra LOVE! #supportsmallbusiness #madewithlove #shoplocal #shopindependant

Why Ginko!!??? I’ve been obsessed with the leaves for so long and I will never forget the memory of my daughter, Maddie shouting form the top of the garden in our new house! ‘Mummy there’s a Ginko tree’ ❤️ felt so lucky xxx Sadly last year I lost a beautiful friend , Kate. In her memory we threw flowers and buckets of Ginko leaves into the sea to mark how wonderful she was. I’ve never met anyone who’s touched so many lives and was so loved by many ❤️ miss you Kate xxx This year we walked the @cr_uk shine marathon for her and throughout the whole night we kept on coming across the leaves 💛 I try and remind myself everyday how lucky we are to have this moment now and do my best to stay grateful for all that we have! #lucky #loved #makememories #blessed #smallmoments #enamelware #handmade #madewithlove

A few new bottoms 💙 of my mugs! #enamelmug #handmade #madewithlove #messages #memories
