tiny happy

I haven't seen any tansy growing here this summer, but it was one of my favourite wildflowers in Norway. I illustrated these tea cups with a tansy design- using my new favourite craft supply- the ceramic pens mentioned in my last post.

But- I must admit that i made a mistake- the pens are not necessarily 'food-safe' even though, after baking, they are dishwasher-safe. Linda of little flower designs (beautiful hand-painted ceramics) commented on my last post to say that the designs can fade/wear over time and in the USA the paint is not certified to be food-safe. So the designs are fine on the outside of cups or bowls, but not on plates. Unless they're decorative plates only. So I'm sorry for getting that wrong!

I am really enjoying using the pens though- and thank you for all your kind comments about my simple little designs…
