For the last few days I’ve been making a few ice lollies I love drawing fab lollies but they hurt my teeth too much to eat so this one is a lot more friendly!

now available in my shop

Sorry for the lack of posts I’m making many many things for the next few months, which are jam packed full of exhibitions and craft fairs, I hope I get to see a few of you there!
