Come and see Sarah's new heat protection outfit! She needs it to stop the heat from burning her when she is pouring molten glass to make her works.

Nick's Mid-point preview tonight 6 -8!!

Come join us at Mushroom Works tonight for Nick's mid-point preview! We have wine chilling in the fridge, ready for your arrival. See the progress Nick has been making since the last preview evening.

Well Done, Wor Bettina!!

Last night was the opening of the Design Event 09 Design Mart at Baltic. Quite a few of the Mushrooms were there exhibiting their beautiful products, namely Michael Armstrong (Afid Design), Sarah Blood, Nick James and Bettina Nissen. 

Bettina, whose been based at the Mushroom Works for just over a year now, had a particularly good evening. Her beautiful Rustic bench won the Design Network North prize for most innovative item in the mart. 

The Mart is on Friday Saturday and Sunday (16th-18th October) and there are some super pieces for sale. Definitely worth a look!

Nick will be right back!

If you wondering where Nick has gone on the webcam, he has just gone for a cuppa! But in the meantime here's a video he made earlier. Enjoy!

Have a 'flickr' through the new pics!

 Our gallery is full of Nick's HANDmade delights today! If you want to explore more of them, there are brand spanking new pictures on this link HANDmade photos.  Alternatively if you want to see HANDmade for real come visit us today! 

Watching progress

Remember Nick is the process of making a commissioned piece of furniture in the gallery space right now. And he invites you to come and watch his progress either by popping down to the Mushroom Works or taking a sneaky peak at his live webcam. 

HANDmade will be exhibiting at the Mushroom Works until Sat 14th November. So don't miss out and come visit us!

We're growing trees at Mushroom Works

Yes it's true if you come down to the Mushroom Works not only will you be able to see Nick James new range of furniture and see him at work but you'll also be able to make your own plant pot, plant an acorn in it and watch your oak tree grow! 

HANDmade preview evening!

Just a quick reminder that tomorrow night will be the preview evening for Nick James' first exhibition at the Mushroom works.

Come on down for the 6pm opening to grab a glass of wine. Look forward to seeing you there!
