Just delivered, these delicate, ceramic tree hangings from @stockwellceramics sitting on scrumptious @peonyandsage Lakshmi dark grey cushion, handmade especially for Eleanor’s Byre by the talented @prettydoolally #eleanorsbyre #theartofgiving #madeintheuk #peonyandsage #stockwellceramics#prettydoolallydesigns #independentbusinesses #shoplocal #shopsmall #christmasiscoming

Sights and sounds of a walk to Craster and back; fuelled by the most delicious scampi and chips from @thejollyfisherman. Geese, gorse, hawthorn, Reindeer food, rainbow, clover and a rather surprising primula. #sundaywalk #craster #northumberland #onmydoorstep

Mother Nature’s baubles 
So, lovely IG community, my apologies, but I’m going to have a little rant. One of the silver linings to having to close the shop is that I can take the opportunity for day time walks to our very beautiful beach which is right on our doorstep. A designated AONB (area of outstanding natural beauty), a haven for bird, sea and wildlife, there for us all to enjoy. So why do people think it acceptable to leave their bags of dog crap for someone else to remove? I photographed these bags within a 50 yard stretch and at least three of them have been there for several days. If your dog craps either get a stick and flick it into the long grass or under a hedge where it will decompose naturally, along with all the other wildlife poo, or, if you bag it, PICK IT UP AND BLOODY WELL TAKE IT HOME TO YOUR OWN BIN!!! If you live in the locality please share this post; after all there are no visitors to the area at the moment so the chances are the culprits are local. Not only is it antisocial, but the micro plastics from biodegradable dog bags, invisible to the naked eye, are hugely environmentally damaging. Get a grip people, let’s not ruin Mother Nature further. Rant over. 
Fabulous vintage floral hair bands, especially made for us by @prettydoolally #eleanorsbyre #embleton #northumberland #theartofgiving #shopindependent #independentshop #madeintheuk
