Happy New
Year!

for Like a magpie!
As of Friday 22nd January a large selection of my
work will be displayed at The NEW Living Cafe in Earl Street,
Maidstone. it is right opposite the Hazlitt Theatre. It is a fantastic
Cafe with a fantastic ethical ethos - Good Food. Good Service. Good
Atmosphere. Check out their menu online or pop in for a cuppa next time

February 2009
This
month was a big month for Laura Murphy, the owner of 'Like a magpie' as
she hit
the big 3-0!
A
fabulous night out or 2 took place and fun was had by all...and best of
all I got
lots of sparkly presents, including a wonderful corsage with twinkling
beads
made by the very talented Miss Emma Sutherley....
December 2008 Like a magpie
exhibited at the 'Bespoke'
showcase during the Christmas Dickens festival. It was a very
successful
weekend - thanks to everyone who dropped by and said hi!
We displayed
beautiful wall hangings and sold
pretty christmas tree decorations (which will be available again next
year!
Make sure you get your orders in early!) and drank the odd mulled wine
to keep
us going...!!
