Michael House Creates
Flowers for Susie Monthly Charity Art Workshop
Flowers for Susie was founded as a charity project many years ago and charity is always part of this brand. This year I wanted to do something a little different and help a charity through giving my time and my design ideas to support their goals. Michael House has been dear to my heart since I first met Mark at South Coast Makers Market almost 5 years ago. This Hostel for the homeless is incredibly nurturing, offering people a roof over their head and space and support to heal and grow. Using creativity is part of this process and I feel honour to play my very little part towards this.
Since I met Mark I’ve done a range of projects with the Hostel but this is the first time we have set up a monthly creative group. We are only in the second month but already there are exciting artworks being created. I’m ecited for what’s to come as these classes develop & grow.

This is my first joint exhibition, and I’m sharing the space with the very talented ceramicist, Ken Eardley.
I attended the private view on Friday 2nd May and was blown away by the way the wonderful team at the gallery had put our work together. It really is a bold celebration of Mid-Century Modern colour and print.
If you are in or around Farnham in May or June please do pop in and take a look.

Meet the Maker Blog
April 2025
Recently, my wonderful supplier, Dannells, approached me to write a feature for their “Meet the Maker” blog post. This wonderful space on their website provides great insight into the many lampshade makers across the country. I jumped at the opportunity to be featured and to share a bit about my business and how it all started.
In the blog post, I delve into the inspiration behind my work, the creative process involved in making lampshades, and the journey that led me to this point. I was thrilled to showcase the unique aspects of my creations and the importance of quality materials sourced from suppliers like Dannells. It’s a joy to be part of a community that values craftsmanship and creativity in home decor.
I would love you to read the full post to learn more about my story and the passion that drives my work.
AWARD WINNER
CRAFT Festival, Cheltenham
8th - 10th MARCH 2024
Cheltenham Town Hall
Wow, what a great weekend exhibiting at Craft Festival Cheltenham. Sarah and the team really do create the most amazing events.
Blown away to have been highly commended at the event. What an honour to have been selected from such a talented group of amazing designer/makers.
CREATE STATEMENT LIGHTING
A perfect way to brighten up your home with a bold colourful statement, the CLUSTER PENDANT has a real WOW factory but is in fact very easy to achieve . A beautifully simple way to add colourful statements to your home, you can cluster with a couple of shades or as many as as you like. I prefer the balance of odd numbers so would suggest a cluster pendant with 3 or 5 lampshades.
Why not use 3 different lampshade designs to create a wonderful colour pop or try and cluster 5 lampshades in one design and colour to create a bold larger statement piece. Creative Cables sell amazing cables and pendant kits so you’ll find everything you need to create the fitting for your lampshades so it really couldn’t be easier.
