May Newsletter



Frankie's May Newsletter is HERE with upcoming dates for Exhibitions and Workshops - take a look!

BSG International Exhibition - Telford



After a delay of some seven years - the BSG International Exhibition is back - this year at the Telford International Exhibition Centre in Shropshire. Held over two days with over 50 traders stands, the halls were spacious and the exhibits and stands well spread out.

Frances spent her time demonstrating her tiny shoe cutters both on her stand and in the Demonstration Hall and saying hello to all her friends and fans who came up to see her over the two days. 


Her Tiny Shoes are extremely popular and you can check out her demonstrations on YouTube and click on the video below for much more information.



Design-A-Fairy Workshop Telford




The day before the BSG International Exhibition in Telford, Frances arranged to hold a workshop in the Holiday Inn Hotel next to the International Centre.

The class was quickly booked up and the basic concept was for each attendee to design and make their own fairy, choosing designs, clothing and setting with the help of material provided, ideas from Frankie or from the imagination of the modeller herself.

As always materials, tools, lunch, coffees and teas were all provided and each student left with her completed work safely and gently packed away in a box for display later at home.

We had some lovely comments on Facebook regarding the weekend
