I suppose I can't put it off any longer, lets get up close and personal with me! ๐Ÿ˜… ๐Ÿ‘‹
Hello, I am Jules and I make jewellery using a process called electroforming which is essentially electroplating onto non-metallic objects, in my case usually real pieces of nature like shells, leaves, feathers and seeds. ๐Ÿš๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿชถ
I absolutely love collaborating with my Artist's Showcase buddies on our events as they are always tremendously good fun as well as being the most amazingly supportive, inspiring and kind friends anyone could wish for. ๐Ÿฅฐ Even if you aren't looking to purchase any hand crafted products, I really hope you will come by for a natter and to enjoy the lovely garden on Saturday, as it really always is a proper nice time! โ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿชป๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒนโ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿฐ

Favourite plant or flower? Roses, lilies, jasmine...anything very scented! ๐ŸŒน
Favourite garden chore? Planting ๐ŸŒฑ

We really hope you will come along to admire his handiwork and have a natter about all things plants and gardens with him. The rest of us think of ourselves as a creatuve bunch but not only does Alan create beauty with plantlife and lanscaping, he also creates deliciousness in the kitchen and will be rustling up a batch of his legendary strawberry crumble slices for you too so he really is a multi-talented creator! ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘Œ

This feels like the perfect member of the Artist's Showcase team to be writing about on this grey rainy Wednesday morning, because what better to warm your cockles and lift your mood than a delicious cup of coffee, and noone knows more about making a delicious cup of coffee than out Bryn! โ˜•๏ธ

On Saturday he will be making his fantastic coffee for you to enjoy in the garden, which is roasted here in Hastings and is inspired by the towns rich history of smuggling in secret caves. I do recommend checking out the various types on his website, each one is made from beans from a single origin and you can find out about the exact farm they came from! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Right, lets grab a cuppa and see what Bryn has to say... ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Favourite plant or flower? - Besides coffee, tulips ๐ŸŒท

Favourite garden chore? - Watering in the evening sunlight ๐ŸŒž

Least Favourite garden chore? - Weeding ๐ŸŒฑ

Tea or coffee? - Do you really have to ask? ๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜•๏ธ
