🧡💕🥰🦄🙌 Happy Friday everyone! Such a lovely post from Maggie’s Lanarkshire. Thank you so much! 🙏🧡

This we’re celebrating the wonderful Julie Childs Glass Artist!

Julie organised an online raffle featuring several prizes from her stunning handmade glass designs, all in support of her Kelpies Experience challenge. Thanks to her hard work and generosity, she raised an amazing £365.75 for Maggie’s Lanarkshire.

It was lovely to chat with Julie and hear all about her experience at the Kelpies. She spoke so proudly about facing her fear of heights while supporting Maggie’s Lanarkshire in such a meaningful way.

Thank you, Julie, for your creativity and kindness. We’re so grateful for your support!

💙🌊🖌️💕A day in the life of a glass artist 😁. It’s been the busiest month of the year so far & this week I’m working on a 500 piece order of Lighthouse Trinket Dishes that HAS to be completed by the end of June (next Tuesday). I have to be extremely organised when I take on an order of this magnitude. As you may or may not know, I undertake every aspect of my business myself. From sourcing the glass, printing & making the gift-tags, painting and gold lining every item, packing, organising delivery and making sure the invoice is created and paid. Hence, I can eat and pay my bills lol. I am working till 2am every night and with 200 done & 300 to go 😱 I can’t wait for a little break away next month 🥰. Here’s a few photos of the process so far my lovelies, I’ll share some more progress reports during the week. Have a great one 🥰💕🙌.

♥️ I don’t usually share reels but this one struck a chord with me 🥰. And as I’m working late every night till 2am to fulfill a huge order, I thought why not? I’m sure there are many others out there that this may resonate with. Stay strong my lovelies 💕💜.

🌷💕🦭🌊🤝 I love it when an idea comes together 🥰🙌. This is my new & approved ‘Seal & Pink Sea-Thrift’ design commissioned by the fabulous Lindisfarne Mead Winery Craft Shop on the iconic Holy Island in Northumberland. Remember I delivered there back in April? (scroll back on my previous posts to see 🥰). I’ve been supplying my glass art to Lindisfarne Mead for almost 10 years now and it has been SO good for customer relations to get to know my customers in person. 🙏💕 Thank you Diana for your inspiration to create this new design for your visitors. Also adding in my Highland Coo design to the collections available. Thank you so much to anyone who’s bought a piece of my glass from this amazing destination 🙏💕💜. Look out for the new design coming soon my lovelies- I will let you know when! 🦭🌷🌊

🏰♥️🧚Hey lovelies, do you remember when I delivered my first order to Eilean Donan Castle back in March and did some product shots up there in the west highlands? Well this is their second 96 piece order which I will be sending this time as I’m just too busy this month 😃. Maybe next time 🥰. I loved it up there, so if anyone is travelling in that area it’s well worth a visit for sure! Thank you to everyone who’s bought a piece of my glass wherever you are! I’m always really grateful. 🙏☺️💕💜♥️

💜🎹 Hi everyone! Well I’m exhausted and resting tonight so I thought I’d post about my next piece of music I’m working on. It’s called ‘Rainmaker’ ☔️ 🧙‍♀️. He’s a pesky wizard who makes it rain every time we don’t need or want it to! He casts a spell and cackles happily away into the woods whilst we get drenched! He’s very annoying like that! 😂 ☔️🧙‍♀️
Anyway, I’m setting the scene and recording a backing track with drums and accompaniment to my next song in my ‘Piano through Glass’ series. I’m getting in character and have my little friends to help me… a mini me doll, made as a present for me in Orkney by a very clever lady 🥰 and the Rainmaker wizard and his spell bottle to make it rain. Lyrics below & music coming soon my lovelies. I may have a singer sorted for my songs to be recorded at college in August! Woohooo 🙌🎶🎹💜

Rainmaker ☔️🌧️⚡️🧙‍♀️

Midnight in the moonlight
Can you hear him coming through the misty night…

Raindrops fall, softly on the ground
Can you hear him coming
Casting his spell all around
And he won’t let up!
‘Till he gets you!

Chorus
Rainmaker!
He’s coming to get you
Rainmaker!
Ooh ooh

He looks in to the clear sky
His features contort into an evil smile
As he starts to chant…
A repeat of centuries past
A clap of thunder!
We run for cover
As the clouds burst! 🌧️

(Chorus)
Rainmaker!
He’s coming to get you
Rainmaker!

💜🧜‍♀️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙What a mammoth month June is proving to be! Talk about chocca-block!😅 Tho I’m not complaining. I’m currently working on Eilean Donan Castle’s second order and have just packed Starry Skye’s glass for collection tomorrow. Lindisfarne Mead’s next week whilst trickling out a massive trinket dish Lighthouse order for Heartbox Scotland for the end of the month 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. I still managed to glam up for my Maggie’s charity cheque presentation. Plus get my beautiful mermaid chair back from Larraine who has looked after her in Orkney for the past 3 & a half years! Thank you to Larraine and my son Joe for bringing her home to me 🥰🧜‍♀️. This is my piano chair which I’ve also managed to do a bit of recording on this week and recruit an amazing bass player for my music 🙌🤩. It’s all good and all systems GO! 🙌💜

🧡🍃🦄 ☕️ It was so lovely to be back at Maggie's Lanarkshire today to have our collective donation recognised with a giant cheque photo presentation. 🙏🤗 Thank you so much once again to all my followers who helped this amazing cancer support charity by buying tickets for my Glass Raffle or donating through my Kelpies Challenge fundraising page. 🧡🥰🙌. You are all amazing!
I chatted with the lovely Kerry-Anne who is a fundraising coordinator (holding the blank cheque beforehand ) at the centre and asked her what our donation could actually pay for. “Great Question” she smiled and chatted away enthusiastically…“Well it could buy 10 people a six week stress management course or a 10 person benefits advisor course to help them with their financial worries and also lots and lots of cups of tea & coffee, to name just a few options.” ☕️😍.
They were all so thankful, it makes you feel emotional and grateful to be healthy. I would love to do more in the future to help if I can. 💙🦄 I donated a Kelpies Vase to go in their next auction, which is a little bit more help. 🍃💧The indoor garden looked a beautiful picture with the light rain falling on the greenery in the middle of the centre, bringing Maggie’s vision to life. 🧡❤️
