When Plans Spin Sideways…

A short update on missing my planned market due to a sudden health scare, and a look at my new Valenween Skelly range — now available online for anyone who loves spooky-sweet art.

This weekend was supposed to be exciting — I had a market booked in and was all set to launch my new Valenween Skelly range: a fun, slightly spooky twist on Valentine’s Day. I'd stocked up, packed everything with care, and was genuinely looking forward to meeting new faces and showing off my Skelly creations in person.

But life had a different plan. Just before the event, I ended up in hospital with a sudden and severe bout of vertigo. It hit hard — I couldn't even keep a sip of water down, let alone stand. Thankfully, I’m home now and recovering, though the world still feels like it’s gently spinning.

It’s tough missing out on events like this when you’re self-employed. You invest in materials, time, energy, and hope — and when something out of your control derails it all, it stings.

That said, the Skellys are still here, and they’re ready to meet the world. If you know someone who might fall in love with my oddball little skeletons — or if you'd be kind enough to share my work — I’d be incredibly grateful.
