Christmas has a way of making creative milestones feel even more magical—and this one truly did. I was absolutely delighted to see my fox ceramic from ArtyPax  featured in Simply Christmas (the Xmas 2025 issue) . It’s one of those moments where you pause, take it in and feel incredibly grateful. A Fox with a Festive Spirit The fox has always been one of my favourite animals to work with—curious, elegant and quietly expressive. I wanted this ceramic piece to feel rooted in nature rather than overtly festive. Something that could sit comfortably among Christmas decorations in December, but still feel at home on a shelf or windowsill all year round. Soft forms, natural tones and a calm presence were key. It’s a piece designed for people who love woodland-inspired décor and prefer Christmas styling that feels thoughtful and timeless rather than novelty-led. Why Being Featured in Simply Christmas Means So Much Simply Christmas  is a much-loved UK magazine dedicated entirely to the festive season—from decorating and gifting to cosy interiors and creative inspiration. It’s a publication readers return to year after year, trusting it for beautifully curated ideas that make Christmas feel special. To have my fox ceramic included in their Christmas 2025 issue felt like a real seal of approval. It placed my pottery in front of an audience who genuinely value craftsmanship, atmosphere, and meaningful seasonal décor—exactly the people I create for at ArtyPax. A Moment to Be Thankful For I’m incredibly thankful to the team at Simply Christmas  for featuring my work, and to everyone who supports ArtyPax—whether by collecting a piece, sharing my journey or simply following along. Seeing a small, hand-cast ceramic make its way into a national Christmas magazine is something I’ll always treasure. If this little fox finds its way into your home during the festive season, I hope it brings a sense of calm, warmth and a touch of woodland magic to your Christmas.

Seeing my work featured in a interiors magazine always stops me in my tracks—but this one felt especially special. I was absolutely delighted to find my ceramic textured vase trio featured in Your Home Magazine ( February 2026 issue ). It was one of those quiet, affirming moments that made all the sketching, planning and refining feel truly worthwhile. A Trio Rooted in Texture and Calm This vase trio is designed with touch and subtlety in mind. Each piece feels grounding and tactile—objects that invite you to slow down and really notice them. The gentle textures are inspired by natural surfaces: weathered stone, soft earth and organic patterns found outdoors. Finished in calm, neutral tones, the vases are intended to work beautifully together as a set, while still holding their own when styled individually. They’re pieces made to live easily in a home—on shelves, tables, or windowsills—bringing a sense of balance rather than demanding attention. Why Being Featured in Your Home Means So Much Your Home  is a long-established and widely read UK interiors magazine, known for making good design feel accessible, welcoming and achievable. It’s a publication people trust for inspiration—showing how thoughtful pieces can elevate everyday spaces without feeling out of reach. To have my pottery featured in their February 2026 issue felt like a meaningful endorsement of ArtyPax’s approach: slow, nature-inspired design with longevity at its core. It introduced my ceramics to readers who genuinely care about creating calm, personal interiors—and that alignment means everything to me. A Moment of Gratitude I’m incredibly grateful to the Your Home  team for featuring my vase trio and to everyone who supports ArtyPax—whether by collecting a piece, recommending my work or simply following along behind the scenes. What began as a simple ceramic set has found its way into the pages of a national interiors magazine, and that’s something I’ll always be proud of. If this vase set ends up in your home, I hope it brings a sense of quiet beauty and everyday ease to your space.

Autumn has always been a special season for me creatively, so seeing my natural-looking pumpkin ceramics from ArtyPax  featured by Confidentials, on their website, in September 2025  felt particularly fitting. They were included as part of Confidentials’ Halloween gift guide , and I couldn’t have asked for a better place—or time—for them to appear. Pumpkins Inspired by Nature, Not Novelty When I design pumpkins, I always steer away from anything overly gimmicky. I’m drawn instead to real pumpkins —their subtle colour shifts, gentle ribbing, and organic imperfections. These ceramics were made to feel tactile and timeless, so they can sit happily in a home throughout autumn, not just on Halloween night. Each piece is made carefully by hand, with natural tones and soft textures that echo the changing season. Being included in a Halloween gift guide that values thoughtful, design-led finds felt like a wonderful alignment. Why being Featured by Confidentials Matters Confidentials  is a well-established and highly respected UK lifestyle website, known for its curated coverage of culture, shopping, food, and independent businesses. With a loyal readership—particularly across the North of England—it’s a platform people genuinely trust for recommendations. To have my pottery selected for their Halloween gift guide felt like a real endorsement. It placed my pumpkins alongside other carefully chosen, creative pieces and introduced ArtyPax to readers who appreciate originality and craftsmanship over mass-produced décor. A Proud Seasonal Moment Features like this always make me pause and reflect. What began as a quiet idea—sketched during an autumn afternoon—ended up reaching a much wider audience through a publication I’ve admired for years. I’m incredibly grateful to the Confidentials  team for including my pottery, and to everyone who continues to support ArtyPax. If one of these pumpkins ends up on your table, mantel or windowsill this autumn, I hope it brings a little of that slow, seasonal joy into your home.
