Royal Cornwall Show

The Royal Cornwall Show was a wonderful show this year bathed in sunshine - ice-creams everywhere!!  The Tuffeteer was there in the Farmer's Pavilion as part of the Cornish Association of Small holders and Producers (CASP). I had a great weekend and met many lovely people that were introduced to tuffets for the first time. I was accompanied by the lovely Millie, my new Jack Russell that I rehomed from The Last Chance Hotel - a dog rescue charity. An absolutely amazing group of people that work around the clock to save abandoned dogs. Their desperation to raise funds prompted me to have the public involved with making a five foot bench tuffet that was then entered into a prize draw. It raised £213 which was given to one of the hard-working folk from the Last Chance Hotel pictured below

Green Earth Awakening -24th -27th May

The Green Earth Awakening mini fest was enveloped in the most wonderful atmosphere of togetherness. Small in number, fair to middling weather - some sunshine some light rain and a group of folk that gelled more and more as the weekend went on. Great talks, crafts - I even made a wooden spoon with Wayne of Wayne's Spoons -

 A great workshop if you ever have the opportunity - he will be at The Green Gathering in Chepstow so hopefully you will be there too! My tuffet workshops were so packed we used every loom and sat out in the sunshine to make them.














My small looms designed for children have unfortunately never been terribly successful.........until now! It was discovered that when held by the feet it works really well, however there is a need for a degree of suppleness!!

Natural wool camping rolls

Luxury Natural-Fibre Bedroll
Festival season is here but still the cold nights!! Camping should be the most wonderful natural experience, outdoors, nature, open fires, what could possibly be a downside? Nothing really.....if you are prepared for these cold damp nights. As the heat of the day is replaced with the beauty of the night sky so the condensation begins and as  the night draws to an end the beautiful morning dew refreshes mother earth all around us. It is then that the very cold of the night and early morning can seep into your soul and sleeping bag!! The new luxurious wool bed roll is the answer to this dilemma. Lightweight, natural insulation, deliciously sheepy and 100% organic.

This particular luxury bedroll is approx 5'  x 20" wide and is available at £75.00 (free postage)
Requests can be made for various colours and size (see tuffet stockroom for tuffet range) - price will be set according to requirements.

Festivals, festivals, festivals!

I am really happy to announce that I am going to be attending a great number of events  this summer, some revisiting from last years others unknown and unchartered territory!!. Check the events quicklist on the right to see where and when! There are still more in the offing, awaiting confirmation and it is all so very exciting!!

Folk Festival season is upon us!

What a long wet winter we have had! The sun has begun to persevere, the buds are ripening and it is becoming clearer that winter has nearly left us albeit with a few snow showers to keep us on our toes! With the spring comes Easter closely followed by the first local festival of the season at Cheriton Fitzpaine in Devon - the wonder Crediton Folk Festival. The Tuffeteer will be present once again offering a workshop to make your own tuffet to use throughout the festival and for many 'seats' to come!

January Slumber is over! Tuffets new and old bursting forth for spring!!

 Well, after the latest rendition of 'Sleeping Tuffets' I have to pretend that winter is over and kick start into action. First things first - booking festivals, old and new, throughout the nation! I will have some great new deliciously sheepy items on the stall and will once again be running the raffle for the festival tuffet which was such a success last year. Keep on the lookout for a festival near you!!

January slumber is over! Tuffets new and old bursting forth for spring!
