Both my partner and I have a great interest in all things "new age" and this is reflected in the majority of items I produce. However I have also had numerous commissions for more mainstream items.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11038054911491071427noreply@blogger.comBlogger20125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3596420489113605561.post-70612025188420875002016-07-11T04:06:00.001-07:002016-07-11T04:28:16.560-07:00<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
Its been a while since I have posted a Blogg on how the business is doing and believe me, there is allot to inform you all of.<br />
<br />
Since May 2015, New Age Carvings has been growing in popularity both online and in retail outlets and it has been great to see it grow. Items have been supplied to 2 retail outlets and an artisan outlet and all have been really successful and I hope to be able to maintain these outlets as suppliers.<br />
<br />
There have been many new items made and sold and I have expanded my skill base by teaching myself painting on canvas. Its been an interesting learning curve and feel it will be a great addition to my product range.<br />
<br />
Along with the smaller items I have been producing, I have also taken on some new project pieces, A wolf Dream Catcher designed table, Celtic Knot work engraved table and my biggest commissioned items, a pirates themed Barrel Coffee table. All of these items can be viewed on my website.<br />
<br />
As ever, I am always looking to produce more of the bespoke items that can not be purchased elsewhere and continue to use reclaimed materials. Its just amazing how many people throw perfectly good items out, good news for me and good new for my customers as I can continue to keep my prices reasonable.<br />
<br />
My online store is up and running and I have had a great response from customers all around the world as well as here at home. Although I never carry much stock, mainly due to space for storage here at home, the items I do carry are all bespoke. Some of them are also available at Magik-Earth in Shirley, Southampton, the only New Age store in the area and fit in nicely with the other items being stocked.<br />
<br />
I have recently purchased a van, so I am now able to deliver items to my local areas, mainly the larger items which can not be sent by couriers and that way, I can assure they will arrive safely.<br />

He was 15 1/2 yrs old and we had a great life together. Full of fun and bossiness he kept me going and gave me encouragement when I felt low. I therefore felt I had to produce a memorial painting of him for myself and he is now in pride of place above my work area.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I will do another blogg at the end of this year, but for now I will leave you with some pictures of my latest items.<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading this and I hope you continue to follow me and my business as it grows.<br />

There have been many new items made and sold and I have expanded my skill base by teaching myself painting on canvas. Its been an interesting learning curve and feel it will be a great addition to my product range.<br />
<br />
Along with the smaller items I have been producing, I have also taken on some new project pieces, A wolf Dream Catcher designed table, Celtic Knot work engraved table and my biggest commissioned items, a pirates themed Barrel Coffee table. All of these items can be viewed on my website.<br />
<br />
As ever, I am always looking to produce more of the bespoke items that can not be purchased elsewhere and continue to use reclaimed materials. Its just amazing how many people throw perfectly good items out, good news for me and good new for my customers as I can continue to keep my prices reasonable.<br />
<br />
My online store is up and running and I have had a great response from customers all around the world as well as here at home. Although I never carry much stock, mainly due to space for storage here at home, the items I do carry are all bespoke. Some of them are also available at Magik-Earth in Shirley, Southampton, the only New Age store in the area and fit in nicely with the other items being stocked.<br />
<br />
I have recently purchased a van, so I am now able to deliver items to my local areas, mainly the larger items which can not be sent by couriers and that way, I can assure they will arrive safely.<br />
<br />
On a sadder note, my precious little pal passed away in April which has left a large hole in my life. He was 15 1/2 yrs old and we had a great life together. Full of fun and bossiness he kept me going and gave me encouragement when I felt low. I therefore felt I had to produce a memorial painting of him for myself and he is now in pride of place above my work area.<br />
<br />
I will do another blogg at the end of this year, but for now I will leave you with some pictures of my latest items.<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading this and I hope you continue to follow me and my business as it grows.<br />
<br />
Steve<br />

New Age Carvings has also been out on the road and held a stall at the Wandering Witches fare in Waterlooville Community Centre on Sunday 16th November 2014. It was a great event and it was so good to see so many stall holders and busy customers. There was live entertainment in the form of live bands and the whole day was a great success.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'd like to thank the Wandering Witches for arranging and running this great event and all of the people who came to see me and my items on the day.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As the Christmas season draws nearer, I will now be concentrating on making customer orders and new items for the new year, however, I will remain open for orders and requests throughout the festive period. </div>
<div>
<br />Well, I think that has brought things up to date for you all and once again, thank you everyone for your continued support.</div>

<b><u>Stag and Wolf Coffee Table</u></b><br />

I was given a commission to produce a coffee table with a a stags head on, a moon between the antlers and a wolfs head inside it.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
Having hunted for an appropriate table and confirming the design with the customer, the project commenced.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
The following images show the process I went through and the finished item.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
I am also very pleased to say that the customer was really pleased with his purchase and it is now at its new home.<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
If you would like me to produce an item for you and include it to my blogg page, website and do a running progress on Facebook, please contact me at www.newagecarvings.com.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
this clock was a great item to do, I had to carve a new face for it, strip the original wood colour off it and stain the whole thing after carving and hand painting faeries on the sides and roses around the top.</div>

Amongst making all of the above items, I had to make a display frame for my show table as I was due to do one in Portsmouth and had nowhere to hang the mobiles. Besides that, I also wanted to make my stall stand out. Having spent 3 hours the night before the show, cutting wood and carving my business name on the plaque, the final items was ready to go.</div>

Faerie Clock Project</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
May-June 2014</div>

Hi folks, </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
welcome to my Faerie Clock Project blog, I hope you like following the project as it progressed and the item is now available for purchase in my shop.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
I managed to get hold of an old tall clock that was ideal for this project and I new would make a truly beautiful unique item. To start the project though, I have to separate the clock top from the casing which was a little tricky as it wasn't clear how it had been assembled.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As a short while, the clock was in 3 parts, the top was one, the pendulum case another and the base a third and it was ready to start prepping.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIlGlLeQ8LgriKRgU7idZbXxdg4uiVdRuZDxZEwOZKEHmzTj0kjEBVDEfLfukXejJtjzs9StGCuMg5nzHgNF_J87WebtzgiekfNZswKuLrMColS5AMkEhrWAxl5QiF3qPZMkYWTXIgDKM/s1600/1400671776503_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIlGlLeQ8LgriKRgU7idZbXxdg4uiVdRuZDxZEwOZKEHmzTj0kjEBVDEfLfukXejJtjzs9StGCuMg5nzHgNF_J87WebtzgiekfNZswKuLrMColS5AMkEhrWAxl5QiF3qPZMkYWTXIgDKM/s1600/1400671776503_.jpg" height="200" width="150" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The design for the new clock face had already been decided so it was just a case now of removing the old one and clock mechanism, which unfortunately had broken so that I could get the correct measurements.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The new face, made from Plywood now needed to be carved with the design and then phyrographed to make it start out when the appropriate wood stains were added.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7LFYCDpwsGlsT7nUY_hr1SFGl0EtMmzE5FrgAwn7ybsoqsQ2pRzzOctrhmWEIatmrZ5tUs6nv4T7erFLd36xXE-vBXEMc2xjV2b7LWesj_BBSACphtuhemOSZXHZKL95HBBJqGBeWOZI/s1600/1401112770769_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7LFYCDpwsGlsT7nUY_hr1SFGl0EtMmzE5FrgAwn7ybsoqsQ2pRzzOctrhmWEIatmrZ5tUs6nv4T7erFLd36xXE-vBXEMc2xjV2b7LWesj_BBSACphtuhemOSZXHZKL95HBBJqGBeWOZI/s1600/1401112770769_.jpg" height="200" width="150" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The case now needed to be prepped ready for new stain and artwork to be added. This took a fair amount of time, 4 hours to be honest, to get it ready. </div>

I wanted to make the sides of the clock to be a feature as well as the front so a faerie design was chosen for the two side raised panels that would fit in with the clock face.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once I as happy with the sides of the clock, I needed a design for the top front and sides that would not only look great, but also tie in with the clock face. The roses were chosen as there was a rose on the clock face representing 12,3,6 and 9 o'clock.</div>

This was my project piece in April 2014.</div>

</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Some of you may have been following the project on facebook, but for those of you,who haven't, here are the pictures of the transformation.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
I decided to use this old sidetable as the legs unscrew making it ideal for sitting on a sideboard if room is tight.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
As the pictures show, alot of time and effort has been put into this piece and I hope you like the end.result as much as i do.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
The altar is for sale and can be purchased at</div>

<b><u>Altar Table Project</u></b></h2>

<br />
Well, its been a while since I did a project so I thought I'd make an Altar. Firstly, I had to source a suitable item to use, this was found and started out as a tall bedside cupboard.<br />
<br />

Once measured up to the appropriate size that I required it was out with the electric saw and down to size it goes.<br />

I chose to keep the designs simple on the altar as too much artwork would not have the desired look and would make it look too fussy. So my choice was a large pentagram on the top with a small one on the drawer front and two triquetra symbols, one on either side. Just to add a little extra to the drawer from, a simple Celtic knotwork design was added.<br />

Now that the design had been added to the altar, I had to fix a new base to it so that a storage shelf could also be provided for the safe storage of bigger items. Using the side of the cupboard, I fitted a piece into the bottom of the unit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The cupboard was then stained using teak wood stain and by adding a little sanding technique I have given it an aged look.</div>

Once the stain had fully dried, 4 layers of varnish were applied to give it a hard wearing coating and the drawer and base lined with black felt to protect any surface it was placed onto and any items placed in the drawer.<br />
<br />
The hardest decision was, what to do for a drawer knob. After a while of trying various items, of which none were suitable, I made one from slate. Carved a triquetra onto it and then painted it gold. After the varnish had been applied to it to protect the gold, it was attached and the altar was finished.<br />

The new age fare I went to in March was a geat success.  I managed to sell some lovely items and had some really nice feedback about my work.</p>
<p dir="ltr">It was a long day, starting at 6.15am when my alarm went off and finished at 6.30pm when i got home and sat down.</p>
<p dir="ltr">There was a great turn out of stall holders selling their items and a steady flow of people throughout the whole day.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I have now got to make more new items as my next fare is in May and stocks are low, not that i'm complaining ;-). </p>
<p dir="ltr">I have a new item to add to my stock, this being a black mirror with Celtic knotwork and pentagrams and I will post more later.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thanks for reading and keep tuned in for next update.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Regards</p>

<b><u>March Mayhem</u></b></h2>
27/03/2014<br />
<br />
Its been a while since my last blogg, so I thought I'd just bring you all up to date with the business progress so far.<br />
<br />Since starting up, I have been really pleased with the helpful comments and positive feedbacks received from customer that have purchased items from me. I am always amazed at just how many people take a look at my product and like them.<br />
<br />
Sales have been slowly increasing, which, given the current financial position people are in, is a great bit of news. Yes, I would like more sales, but then again, who wouldn't, I'm just pleased that the sales I have had have been received with such high praise.<br />
<br />
The website has been receiving more new viewers and they are from all over the world, so I'd like to say welcome to you all from wherever you live and please keep looking in, I am always updating the site with new items and new events happening.<br />
<br />
My product range has been expanding too. Trying out new items and making different products has been a great challenge, especially when I have so many different ideas running through my head all at once :). The mobiles have been a success and I hope that the outdoor faerie houses will be a hit this year too.<br />
<br />
I have booked myself into 3 fares this year so far, one of which is due Saturday 29th March, so keep your eyes open for more bloggs on how they went and pictures of the events too.<br />
<br />
Well, this is just a quick update as I have a show this weekend and I really must get things sorted out for that so, thank you again for taking the time to read my update and please, LIKE me on Facebook and keep checking in on the website and store for my latest items and news.<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

<div>
I can't believe how time has flown since my last update, I must apologise for this.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Where do I start, well, I have been really busy sourcing new materials, this has involved trips to distant places :) good to get out and about as I do find it hard to do that, so its a great achievement when I manage it. One of my journeys took me to Selsey beach to collect a table, it also gave me a chance to see what horrific damage the storms had done to the coast line there.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The seats at the top car park area where covered with stones, as was the carpark, quiet frightening really to consider the strength of the water. The few pictures below show what the sea had done to the coast line.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
The table that I collected is still yet to be carved and this will be coming later in the year but it well worth the journey.<br />
<br />
Along with this trip, another trip took me to another coast line, Lee on The Solent. Not very often do you see a tree on the beach, driftwood yes, tree, uh, no but sure enough, there it was.<br />

I am looking forward to starting this one, been a while since I have done a large item and getting itchy fingers.</div>

<div>
Hi there everyone, </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know its been a while since I last posted some news on how my small business is proceeding, however, I'm sure you all understand me when I say paperwork!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I haven't been sitting around doing nothing though so here is an update.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Some of you may have noticed a new page on my main website called 'J Hendrix Artworks'. James and I met up in the job centre scheme under A4E when we started a business course and after talking to each other about our aims and objectives, it became apparent that thy matched.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
James has been an artist for 25yrs and his work is incredible, he just needed a way to show people what he could do. At first he had a slot in my Promoted Artist section, but since then, he has a facebook account, a facebook group and i growing really quickly.</div>
<div>
<br />
One of my aims was to provide support to up and coming artists as well as doing my own thing and on that basis, I offered him a page on my site to promote his artwork and along side this, his own section in my store for his items to be sold.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Please check out his work and Facebook page, I am sure you will like his work.</div>
<h3>
<a href="http://newagecarvings.com/jameshendrixartwork.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">James Hendrix Artworks</span></a></h3>
<div>
Along side this new development, I have been making new items some of which are shown below.</div>

<b><u>Moon Gazing Hares Project 07-02-14</u></b></h2>
<div>
I have been wanting to do a really nice piece of furniture for my store for a while now as I really enjoy making these items.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A nice coffee table was chosen and the design, well, Moon Gazing Hares are my favorite so that was easy to choose. When I start any new item, I always remove any old staining or varnishing that has been applied to the item so that I am able to start with a blank canvas, so to say.</div>

As the pictures above show, the table was originally that horrible orange/stained color, why they insist on trying to make tables this color is beyond me. After about 3 hours, this finish had been removed by hand and sandpaper back to bare wood.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

First of all I had to get the Celtic Knotwork circle correct and central so it looked exact. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Once the stain had been applied, it was lightly sanded using fine wire wool and then a 2nd coat applied. This was also lightly sanded and then a different color applied to bring the design out.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

I used water color paste and acrylics along with various wood stains to complete the picture.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The hares where then painted in and the table was then ready to seal to prevent the design being removed or damaged when wiping it with a cloth and polish. To seal the water color was tricky. As it is water based, I had to dab lightly a layer of PVA glue onto the top of the design. Once this had dried, I knew the image would be safe to varnish.<br />
<br />

Now all of the parts were ready for varnishing.<br />

These will be available at Magik-Earth in Shirley, Southampton this week.<br />
<br />
I then had a further order which involved engraving a Pentagram on a glass star. Having never tried this before, I had a practice first on a mirror I had kicking around. Ummm, pretty good result so off I went with the real article.<br />
<br />
The finishing result was..<br />

Cool or what? this was then to be used as a pendant for a windchime so I set about making them and the end result looks like this .<br />

Whilst in the making stages of this item I was also making a new Faerie wall plaque. I had a great design ready to go but had to adapt it to make it even more special. It wasn't the easiest of carvings to do. The detail required in the wings and the bridge were really small and intricate.<br />
<br />
Having carved it and then using wood stains and black enamel paint the finished product came out really good, even if I do say so myself, althogh I will let you be the judge of it.<br />

<br />
Having had a great day meeting up with James Hendrix artworks on<br />
Monday, I have changed the name of my web page for up and coming<br />
artists or established ones. I have now called it Promoted Artists and you<br />
are able to purchase your own gallery space on my site. Just visit my site<br />
or store for further details.<br />
<br />
I've been busy carving some more boxes for Mary at Magik-Earth<br />
and now waiting for another small altar bowl to dry. <br />
<br />
I would like to say hello to all my new followers and thank you all for your<br />
really nice comments about my items, I am always on the look out for<br />
more items to up cycle and have recently located some more Ash from fallen<br />
trees. Yay, more faerie houses will be made soon :)<br />
<br />
I'm looking forward to March as i am holding a stall at a New Age Fare, meet<br />
more people and hopefully, make more friends. I'll give you all more details<br />
nearer the time, would be great to see some of you, America isn't too far to<br />
travel from either, so no excuses my overseas followers.<br />
<br />
well, better go for now but will be back again, so please stay tuned in<br />
for another step along my business path.<br />
<br />

<br />
After a very busy week, what with computer work and making customer orders, its a good feeling to be able to sit down on a Friday night, relax and think of some new ideas.<br />
<br />
I went to see my friend Mary at <a href="http://www.magikearth.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Magik-Earth</a> in Shirley, Southampton and we had a good long chat and I was introduced to a couple of her friends, one of which was a witch that is specialised in herbs and potions and also carries out Palm Readings. Very interesting lady and showed great interest in my products, as well as my palm.<br />
<br />
Whilst visiting Mary, I was mentioning some Green man Tea light Holders that I had made,<br />
I will post some pictures up on Facebook soon. It was suggested to me about putting crystals in the eyes of the Green Man so that they light up when the tea light is burning. Cool!! got home and set about doing just that. Ummmm, may need a bit of refining but the prototype looks great.<br />
<br />
More orders have been received, :) always good to get orders, I thrive on being busy, it really helps me with some of my personal issues too. I guess it will mean more computer work when they are finished though, hey ho, can't be having fun all of the time :)<br />
<br />
Having now sold my 2 faerie house incense burners, they are really popular, I will have to make another batch so keep your eyes open on my Facebook Page and website for them. I will also be making some bigger ones for the garden, toying with having ones where the door can be opened and the shutter too, but need to have a think about that.<br />
<br />
Will definitely be making more mobiles and wind chimes, pagan ones and faerie ones. Always open for ideas if anyone have any though.<br />
<br />
Well, it is Friday night and I think it's time for me to shut the brain down for a wee while, so thank you for all your continued support and I will post again next week.<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

<br />
What a busy day today has been, started off early as usual, walk the dog, check emails, none, check sales and webstore views.<br />
<br />
Then off to meet Gregg from <a href="http://www.pomelobusiness.co.uk/"><span style="color: black;">www.pomelobusiness.co.uk</span></a> for a discussing and show how to amend the gallery on my main website.<br />
<br />
Having installed Jalbums.co.uk the process was really easy to understand, and believe me, if its not a piece of wood or a paint brush, I will get confused.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://newagecarvings.com/gallery.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b style="background-color: red;"><span style="color: #f4cccc;">Check it out</span>.</b></a><br />
<br />
I think you will agree, the lay out of the gallery and the picture quality are so much better. It really allows you to see how intricate my work is and how the finished items looks. I still have few more tweeks and adjustments to make but I am really pleased so far.<br />
<br />
The customer order I posted last is nearly completed now and I will post a picture shortly of the finished item. I have sent a progress picture to the customer and she is really pleased with it, always great to hear that, really boosts my confidence :).<br />
<br />
I have moved the featured artist page to the gallery page now and renamed it as<span style="background-color: #783f04;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"> </span><b><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Promoted Art Work</span></b><span style="color: #cc0000;">.</span></span><span style="background-color: #cccccc;"> </span> Having checked out the price for posting pictures on other websites or placing them in exhibitions, I have come up with a really great value option for people who would like to see if their own website is viable, just click the link in the gallery and have a read of the service I am offering.<br />
<br />
Well, I had better get on with some more work now so I will post again once more items have been completed or if I have any other news to inform you about.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading<br />
<br />
Regards<br />

<br />
<br />
I just thought I'd share with you a picture of my little workshop where I produce my items. Its small and compact, no big store room or workshop tools for me.<br />
<br />
Well, today started early as usual, yep, its Sunday but one thing I have learnt is no day is a rest day. Today I have been starting a customer order for a Moon Gazing Hare mobile.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoIrDWe9fQBnPvJ9mL4PkuDl8dHGB25FEdZdh1oveVnVz2nW-4YE2rE0Ie1sM-tRk1S5rbInPqZmYCn_zw3DH5dJ4Jo2ztU4SIEb9NA3fpk0iz0EltTkEBEHIPXT8fr6oqE9Zw9trTntQ/s1600/1389535721513_%5B1%5D.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoIrDWe9fQBnPvJ9mL4PkuDl8dHGB25FEdZdh1oveVnVz2nW-4YE2rE0Ie1sM-tRk1S5rbInPqZmYCn_zw3DH5dJ4Jo2ztU4SIEb9NA3fpk0iz0EltTkEBEHIPXT8fr6oqE9Zw9trTntQ/s1600/1389535721513_%5B1%5D.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
Made from Ash, the hares have been carved into the wood and then using a dremel versatip, the outline has been burnt in so the image stands out.<br />
<br />
The picture above shows the progress so far. The larger disc still needs the other side carving. It takes quiet a while for me to get each image done as I do have really high working standards. <br />
<br />
I have also finished another wind chime, this time showing a faerie on a swing carved and then hand painted on Ash.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This wind chime isn't available just yet but will be soon so keep checking my store or my Facebook page as it will be posted there when it is.<br />
<br />
I have many new things coming up this week, a new gallery for my main website, further items will be posted on Pagan Market on facebook and more new items will be entering my store.<br />
<br />
Another venture is in the pipeline but I will inform you more about that once some details have been finalised.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading and I hope to have some more news shortly.<br />

The response so far to me and my items has been great and given the fact that I have been suffering from alot of personal issues, this is really welcoming.<br />
<br />
My business, if you haven't seen it already online is an=bout making New Age products that fit in with all lifestyle choices. I not only cover the Pagan, Celtic and Wiccan beliefs, I also have a strong belief in relaxation, meditatation and spirituality.<br />
<br />
I must admit, I do have a greater liking for dragons and do have a lot of Dragon figurines and gothic artwork is really interesting. That said, I do like nature too, especially wildlife like wolvesd, tigers, snow leopards and other big cats, oh and small ones too.<br />
<br />
I have set this page up so if you wish to follow my progress and are interested in the items I produce, you are able to keep upto date with me.<br />
<br />
It will also allow me to give you an insite to me and how my days are filled.<br />
<br />
Well, thats enough to get started with and I hope you tune in for another update soon.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
Steve<br />
