Autumn 2018 – Update

I have also finished the last window panel in a Sir John Soanes designed house which depicts the history of the house and local landscape.

I am waiting to install another public art piece in Malmesbury – images to follow when the work is installed and have worked on a number of small commissions in-between.

My courses are fully booked for this year and I am also fully booked for commissions until May/June 2019

My Etsy gift shop https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/MelissaColeGiftShop is starting to gain interest – I am selling smaller gift items here such as linked hearts, hooks, feathers and huge nails!

My prototype garden linked hearts were recently auctioned for the Jemima Layzell Trust www.jemimalayzell.com and raised £300 and a one day course raised £250 for Wiltshire Air Ambulance. www.wiltshireairambulance.co.uk

I have had a part time blacksmith working with  me this year and hope this will continue while he develops his skills and knowledge of our craft.
