Ceramic & tweed pin cusions - Made in UK

Product

I really loved sourcing all the different bits for these pin cushions.  My pottery teacher, Steve, throws and glazes the pots.  I source Scottish Tweed for the pin material and fill it with lavender flower heads (grown in England and France)  and noil (by-product from spinning yarn) from the John Arbon Textiles mill.

When you place or take pins from the cushion, you are releasing the lavender scent - it's lovely.  

There are two sizes available, and lots of glaze and tweed colours to choose from.

The pottery is less than five miles from my studio, making this is a truly Cheshire-made product.

Postage and Packaging

You can read all about P&P here.

The P&P costs applied are very transparent.  No additional costs are added on, you simply pay for the cost of packaging and the cost of postage.  I don't offer free P&P because what that usually means is that the cost of P&P has been added to the cost of goods.  I think it is better to assume that my customers aren't daft and would rather have transparent P&P costs than the pretence of 'Free P&P' with inflated prices on the items that they are buying.
