We are lucky to have some very talented artists in our area and to count them as friends. Being able to sell their wares gives an extra dimsension to the Shop and means that we always have something special to tempt those buying a treat for themselves or looking for a lovely gift.

Nick Cable is a brilliant photographer living on the Somerset Levels. Specialising in images of the landscape and wildlife that surround him Nick's prints adorn the Shop's walls and are a joy to have on display. We carry a range of Nick's photos as cards and different-size prints either framed or unframed. Nick also took many of the photos on this website (the good ones!). Take time to browse Nick's images at www.nickcable.co.uk

Based in Taunton, Will Shakspeare produces amazing and individual glassware. Will, who successfully featured on Channel 4's Kirsty's Home Made Home, supplies us with fantastic baubles, pendants, paperweights and other lines depending on his production. See more of Will's work at www.shakspeareglass.co.uk.

Living just a stone's throw from the Shop and being a big fan of our coffee we see plenty of Curry Mallet artist Mary Vanderplank. Mary paints in oil and watercolour. Her views of West Country landscapes are superb, as are her studies in detail. We always have a range of Mary's work in the Shop; cards, prints and framed pictures. For a taste of what she does have a look at www.maryvanderplank.co.uk

Jewellery is always a winner and ours is supplied by Othery-based Denise Hawkins. Denise specialises in silver; earrings, brooches, necklaces and more. Included in the range is an excellent selection of amber pieces which are very popular. 

Working in felt, Marilyn Hayward from Hatch Beauchamp keeps us topped up with delightful purses, wallets, and brooches. Particularly attractive are Marilyn's lovely "cottage" door stops/book ends which everyone stops to admire. "How's the housing market in Curry Mallet?" is a regular question from Marilyn. "Bucking the trend as far as cottages go" is the usual answer!
