Artfire Europe Guild

Today I thought I'd share with you all some of the work I like from the Artfire Europe Guild members. I thought I'd pick a bit of a child's theme after reading the blog of The Toy Society and did a bit of research into what they did and what they were all about. Please go over and have a look around their blog and see if you can support them in anyway. They have such a simple, but wonderful thing going on. They deserve lots of support.

arbOOz created this gorgeous picture of chirpy little birdies on a purple background with orange branches. I love the bright cheerful colours and the simplicity of the shapes. It would look fabulous on a nursery wall.

Blue Shed Crafts has made this cute trio of hand knitted bunnies. They look so cuddly. Each one is a different colour and they are just the right size for cwtching down in bed, sucking your thumb and rubbing your nose with their big floppy ears... or is it just me that does that?

Dish Dash Bags has made this lovely 50's style space fabric purse. Retro is so in now and any little girl or boy would love this to keep crayons in. They will be the envy of all their friends when they get this out of their bag and slap it down on the colouring in table at nursery school.

Ignis Fatuus's sheep are so flippin gorgeous! How much fun would it be to have a whole flock of these baa lambs on your bookshelf? Each one is slightly different because they are hand crafted which is great! Real sheep are all slightly different too. The maker of these is 86, so it just proves you are never too old to let your talents shine.

Fugsly's print of one of her original acrylic paintings makes me smile. I love the way the little girl figure looks like she is trying to figure out how to get down from the star whilst the little boy looks like he is resigned to the fact he is stuck on the star for now. Fabulous!

The Artfire Europe guild has many talented people as members, visit our blog where you can find links to all our shops in the right hand sidebar if you feel like taking a look for yourselves. Don't forget to check out what The Toy Society do and show them some love and support for all the good work they are doing.
