This month Willow is 9 ish, it is her official birthday. She is such an amazing girl and so well behaved. We got her from the #leedsdogstrust as a roughly 3 month old, she's greeted Mary Berry into my workshop, is so kind and loyal. Happy Birthday girl.

Today is the Winter Solstice, it all gets brighter from here! Today was also my last installation before Christmas. This deer was commissioned By the Lepton Village Preservation Society. He now stands in Leptons Rec Ground, his back height is 1m 40cm, he just goes up from there!

Yesterdays willow deer workshop @rhsharlowcarr, I really enjoyed teaching everyone, we were glad to be indoors as the day brought high winds, heavy rain, drizzle and as you can see by 4pm the most amazingly brilliant sun shine!
Everyone made fabulous deer well done everyone.

🌟 Newbie Alert 🌟
Everybody meet 8 yr old Charlie 🥰
He arrived with us last week. His background was not nice until a neighbour took him in & gave him a lovely life sadly she’s now seriously ill & had to make the heartbreaking decision to rehome him. Not an easy decision 😢
