Easter Hares are here!

With Easter nearly upon us and spring just around the corner I'm celebrating with this cheerful lively bunting. The botanical drawings are exquisite. A perfect way of bringing flowers into our homes while our gardens catch up.
They will be available to buy from The Willow Tree Gallery, Holmfirth and my Etsy shop (Bettylovespaper) in the next few days.

Easter bunting is just round the corner

I purchased these lovely books from my local Oxfam bookshop here in Holmfirth. They are full of beautiful illustrations, perfect for bunting in spring.

Betty Loves Paper at The Willow Tree Gallery Holmfirth.

I've posted here some images I took this morning (between the showers!) of my current decorations that the lovely ladies at The Willow Tree Gallery are using in their window.  If you don't already know Willow Tree is a small independent gallery in the centre of Holmfirth in West Yorkshire.  As well as selling paintings, prints and sculpture, Carrie is an experience picture framer.

If you would like to buy any of my decorations and can't get down to The Willow Tree I'm selling both the Garden Bird Bunting and the Heart Garlands in my Etsy Shop.

Brightly coloured Heart Garlands

Today I've cut and sewn together some more Heart Garlands. This time They're from The Topper Annual, 1990 edition.  The colours are fab, not subtle at all, but bright and cheeky. As are the story lines! I think they are great fun, perfect for sharing with the one you love :-) x 

These two pairs have been added straight to my Etsy Shop, Bettylovespaper

Heart Garlands now available in Etsy Shop

I've now added my Vintage Paper Heart Garlands to my Etsy shop, Bettylovespaper.  There are five hearts per length of ribbon and I've included two lengths in each packet.


They are perfect as a gift or decorating your own home for that Valentines tea.  They look great as a single strand or a whole bunch.  I made 30 lengths twice this size to decorate a marquee for a wedding. If you think this is something you would like leave me a comment, or Facebook me and we can have a chat about your needs.
