1 x Wooden Dominos Set

Thank you to the lovely crew at No.66 for this thoughtful donation ❤️

This eye-catching wall plaque features a bold, stylised red squirrel holding an acorn. Its sweeping, flame-like tail curls right up the board.

The design is precision laser-cut into a richly grained, dark-stained wooden panel, revealing a vivid red layer underneath.

The result is a striking two-tone piece with real depth, as the squirrel almost seems to glow out of the wood.

Vinylscribe cut, engrave, paint, stain, varnish and assemble all their work by hand in Cowes, so this is genuinely made on the Island, for the Island’s own red squirrels.

Two keyhole slots on the back make it ready to hang straight away.

It would look great in a hallway, kitchen or garden room, or make a perfect present for the red squirrel fan in your life.

From their website:

Britains favourite bird, the Robin Red Breast.

There is a long standing connection between the loss of a loved one and the appearance of a robin in the British Isles.

We have had endless customers recounting the same story of a robin showing up in their garden directly after a loved departs.

And of course they are a quintessential part of a British Christmas!

Perfect presents!

We used to make two sizes but now just one, pretty much life size to their avian equivalent 6.5 – 7.5 cm tall.

Picnic season will come round again, and this hamper means you'll be ready for it. It's a traditional willow hamper with a crisp blue and white striped lining, and it comes fully fitted for four people:

- Four ceramic plates
- Four sets of white-handled stainless steel cutlery
- Four wine glasses
- Four matching striped napkins
- Salt and pepper shakers
- A corkscrew and bottle opener

Everything is held neatly in place with brown leather-look straps. The hamper closes with two buckled straps and has a sturdy carry handle.

It still has its original Scribble tag, so it has never been used.

It's perfect for a day out at the beach, a walk in the woods, or a cheeky glass of something in the garden.

Condition: Minor wear to the willow and one strap on one side occurred in storage (see photos); does not affect use.

Hand-Forged Twisted Iron Cloak Pin
Made and kindly donated by Son of Fire Blacksmithing

This handsome cloak pin was forged by hand from solid iron, with a twisted ring and a long tapered pin. Its design goes back over a thousand years: brooches like this were used by Celts, Vikings and medieval folk to fasten their cloaks, and the design still works perfectly today.

Use it to secure a cloak, shawl, wrap or chunky scarf.

The hammered, darkened finish gives it a rugged, rustic character, and because it's made by hand, no two are quite the same.

It's a great gift for anyone into history, reenactment, knitting or folk crafts, or for anyone who likes their accessories with a bit of fire in their past.

Copper has been worked by hand for thousands of years, and the Vikings themselves loved arm rings and cuffs. This lot lets you wear a little of that tradition and read all about where it came from.

- "Isle Of Wight – Red Squirrels"
- "Isle Of Wight" arched above the squirrel

A beautifully crafted wallet made right here on the Island!

It's cut from rich chocolate-brown leather and stitched in a contrasting tan thread that really stands out. The flap is embossed with the maker's griffin crest.

The envelope-style flap fastens securely with an antique brass press stud. Inside, there's a pocket for cards and a deeper section for notes or receipts. It's compact enough to slip into a pocket or handbag, and it's built to last. Good leather only gets better with age, softening and developing a lovely character the more it's used.

It's a smart, practical gift for anyone who appreciates proper craftsmanship, and it supports a local maker too.

Four gorgeous greetings cards, printed from Angela Sowden's original watercolours of red squirrels.

Two show a wide-eyed squirrel gazing straight out at you, ears tufted and whiskers twitching.

The other two, from her "Nuts About Nuts" design, show a squirrel in side profile, clutching a nut beneath a magnificent bushy tail.

The loose, glowing watercolour washes in warm russet and orange really capture the red squirrel's fiery colouring and inquisitive character.

The cards are produced in the UK by Pennybatch Gallery on board from recycled and well-controlled sources, and each comes with an envelope in its own cellophane wrap.

Keep them for birthdays, thank-yous or Christmas notes. You might even want to frame one, they're that pretty!

A pretty, dainty resin bookmark with an opulent red tassel

A little treasure from one of the Island's own animal sculptors!

This palm-sized squirrel sits crouched with its paws held up to its mouth, as if nibbling a nut, and its bushy tail is raised high behind it.

Juliet has captured wonderful detail at such a small scale: the textured fur, the tufted ears, the tiny paws and a bright little eye. The rich, dark patina picks out every ridge of the fur as it catches the light.

It's small enough to sit on a desk, windowsill or bookshelf, and full of character. It's a lovely piece for any wildlife lover or collector of brooches, and it was made right here on the Isle of Wight.

A bright, joyful print from Island illustrator Kathy Pilcher!

Around him runs a circle of woodland treasures: pine cones, acorns, ferns, oak leaves, sprigs of berries and little spotty toadstools, all in warm autumn reds, golds and greens.

It's done in Kathy's bold, Scandinavian-inspired style and would brighten any kitchen, hallway or child's bedroom. It would make a lovely gift, too.

- Size: 210mm square, and fits a standard 8 x 8 inch frame
- Printed on quality 300gsm card

A sparkling treasure for your window or garden!

This sitting dog is shaped by hand from copper wire and filled with a delicate web of beads in soft pastel pinks, blues, lilacs, pearly whites and clear crackle glass, with a dark bead for a bright little eye.

He sits up begging with one paw raised, and even his little tail has a beaded tuft.

Hang it in a sunny window and watch the light shine through the beads, or hang it from a branch to twinkle in the garden. It comes ready to hang on a sheer lilac ribbon.

What makes it extra special is that the maker hand-strips every length of copper wire from discarded electric cable, giving it a second life. It was made right here on the Island, and as Copper Daisy Crafts says, "each creation is a work of heart."

It's the perfect gift for any dog lover!

Red squirrel cross stitch kit. This kit features the beautiful red squirrel sat on a log in a pretty scene. I live on the Isle of Wight and am lucky to see these beautiful animals regularly. I wanted to be able to create a kit that captured their delicate features whilst being bright and modern.

The finished design measures 4.7 x 4.7 inches and the pattern uses full cross stitches, backstitch and straight stitch.

This full physical kit includes a professionally printed A5 fold out booklet with a colour photo, colour cross stitch chart, colour backstitch chart, a colour key and easy to follow instructions.

The kit also contains 14 count white aida, a needle and DMC stranded cottons in 24 beautiful colours pre-sorted onto a thread card.

**Hoop not included**
This looks lovely in a 6 inch hoop (not supplied) but could be framed also.

No two pearls are ever quite alike, and these earrings celebrate that.

Each one pairs a large, irregular baroque pearl with a slim silver hoop, finished with a tiny silver bead at the base.

The pearls have a beautiful rippled surface that catches the light with soft rainbow tones, so they look different from every angle.

They’re elegant enough for an evening out but relaxed enough to wear with jeans: a modern take on the classic pearl earring.

Meet your new desk companion!

This striking dragon is covered in jagged, crystal-like spikes in a two-tone finish of deep magenta and charcoal black.

It’s fully articulated, so the body, tail and legs bend and curl. You can pose it coiled on a shelf, draped along a bookcase or wrapped around your hand, and it’s very satisfying to fidget with.

It would make a great gift for a dragon lover of any age, or a fun talking point for your own home.

This dragon was kindly donated by Island Crafts and Gifts at 89 High Street, Shanklin, a shop full of locally made crafts and unusual gifts. Do pop in and see what else they have!

A timeless piece with a little extra sparkle.

This bracelet is strung with creamy white pearls, each with its own natural ripples and soft lustre.

A single crystal-studded bead adds a touch of glamour. It sits on a stretch band, so it slips on easily with no fiddly clasp.

It’s lovely for everyday wear and special enough for an occasion, which also makes it a thoughtful gift.

Bring the seaside indoors with this stunning hanging heart. Layers of resin create a sea that deepens from turquoise shallows to rich ocean blue.

Lacy white surf rolls onto a creamy sandy beach, and two real seashells rest at the water’s edge.

The glossy finish catches the light beautifully, so it really does look like a wave caught mid-wash.

A silver ribbon makes it ready to hang on a wall, a door or in a window.

It’s a lovely gift for anyone who loves the sea, or a reminder of summer on the Island all year round.

A buzzing treat for nature lovers!

These four coasters show Tanya Solomons’ detailed coloured pencil artwork. There are three fluffy bumblebees, one feeding on lavender-purple blooms, one in flight and one nestled in pink and violet flowers. The fourth coaster has a pair of monarch butterflies on a pink coneflower. Every stripe, wing vein and fuzzy hair is drawn by hand, so they’re as much little artworks as table mats.

They’re perfect for your morning cuppa, and a lovely gift for gardeners, bee lovers or anyone who likes to bring a bit of nature indoors.

A real treasure from Island shores. This pretty bracelet pairs a frosted piece of sea glass with a textured sterling silver starfish charm, on a sparkling 925 sterling silver belcher chain. Waves and sand have softened the sea glass for years, giving it that lovely misty finish, so no two pieces are ever the same.

It arrives beautifully presented in a turquoise gift box, ready to give. It would make a perfect present for a beachcomber, or for anyone who loves the Isle of Wight coast.

It’s perfect for sea swimmers, surfers, paddleboarders and anyone who loves a dip. It also works as a post-swim snuggle robe or a towel for the kids after the pool.

Escape to the Mediterranean without leaving home!

This wicker gift basket is packed with Greek treats:

From Waterstones' Website: Lifelines: Searching for Home in the Mountains of Greece,The true story of a courageous leap into a new life.

In the summer of 2000, Julian Hoffman and his wife Julia found themselves disillusioned with city life. Overwhelmed by long commutes, they stumbled upon a book about Prespa, Greece – a remote corner of Europe filled with stone villages, snow-capped mountains and wildlife, which they would soon call home.

Prespa is a crossroads. Where three countries come together around two huge lakes, where limestone collides with granite and heat-pulsing Mediterranean ecosystems meet their colder, Balkan relatives. Here, languages, wartime histories and rivers converge, and pelicans, bears and people leave their footprints on the water’s edge – next to unexploded bombs.

Lifelines is not only the tale of a courageous leap into a new life, but of seasons punctuated by unforgettable encounters, from a stare-down with a bear surrounded by spring wildflowers to a deep-winter meeting with fourteen wrens sheltering above a frozen doorway. And into this place encircled by mountains, Julian seamlessly weaves an intricate web of stories – of conflict and possibility; of refuge lost and found; of the wild lifelines that connect us all as we move through the world seeking a home.

Greek extra virgin olive oil (500ml) from Chania in Crete, with protected PGI status. It’s mild and balanced, perfect for drizzling, dipping and Mediterranean cooking, and comes in an elegant corked bottle.

Whole Greek Kalamon olives, hand-picked, rich and fruity, ready for salads or a mezze platter.

It’s all presented in a sturdy wicker basket with handles, which is lovely to keep afterwards.

It’s a perfect gift for a food lover, a keen reader or anyone dreaming of Greek sunshine. Curl up with the book and a plate of olives, and you’re halfway to the Aegean!

The book was kindly donated by Waterstones.
