Dear Kathleen
 
I can't believe how quickly my order arrived! It came in the post this morning and I'm absolutely thrilled with it. We already have one of your Green Man figures, one very similar to the one I just bought but about twice the size and he has pride of place, living on the back wall of the arbour in the garden where he can watch over everything and we can see him from almost every window.
 
I have seen quite a few sites online selling Green Man figures but yours just seem to call out to me. They're so very friendly and tactile. I hope your business goes from strength to strength - the quality of your figures and the speed of your deliveries deserves to do well.
 
Thank you for such good service.
 
Regards

t arrived at work this morning. I am more than stunned at the journal, it exceeded my expectations. The home manager was present when I opened the parcel and she is stunned also - I gave her the card from the invoice as she wants to look at your website for a gist for a friend.

Do you have the facility to feedback for purchases on your site - if not I will write a proper e-mail (this is from my phone).

Take care and thank you. By

Hi Kathleen
I just wanted to say that I am so impressed with you products they are absolutely beautiful! I can't believe that I get a free moon gazing hare as well, it is very generous of you. I have wanted one for my garden for years, though even if it is ok to leave out in the winter, it wont be, it will be bought indoors. Thank you very much
Blessings

I just wanted to let you know that Gaia arrived yesterday as expected. She is in perfect condition and I am absolutely delighted with her. Thank you very much. I am sure I will be placing another order at some time in the future as my husband also thinks she is wonderful.
 
Thank you again.

July 10 I received the fantastic green man this morning and I have put him up on the wall in the back room (not the kitchen again!) where he catches your eye as soon as you walk in, and all I can say about him is wooooooooooow! He is amazing. You will be pleased to know that he arrived in perfect condition  and your choice of moss green colouring is just perfect. I absolutely love him! Thank you so much. He is the size and sort of green man I have been looking for for years and never managed to find until now; and I am over the moon about him. Also, thank you for the two free gifts, they're lovely. I have put the small green man in the kitchen!!!!! on the opposite side of the door to the other small green man that I had free, and they look great. And the earrings are beautiful too. I can't wait to order some more green men! M
July 10 The necklace arrived today and I'm just mailing to say how delighted I am with it. It's one of those rare occasions when the real thing is actually even better than the photo, and amazingly good value for the price (good grief, sounds like I'm on commission!). Many thanks, you may well hear from me again...!

Hi Kathleen,

 

Just wanted to send a very big thank you for my beautiful book 'Luna the Moon Hare'

which arrived safe and sound to my work address yesterday.

 

I am so very pleased with the book and I was very impressed on the care to attention you

give to your customers. If everyone was this dedicated it would be a much nicer world

to shop in :

 

I will be recommending your products and great service to all my colleagues and look

forward to dealing with you again in the very near future.

 

 

March 10 Hello Kathleen


Many, many thanks for my Green Man and Mice (New Forest Green Man), Forest of Dean Green Man, the Green Man Wall Tile and of course, the replica of the West Country Green Man.  They all arrived this morning safe and sound, thanks to your superb packaging.  I was amazed at the detail when I first came across your website, and after looking at other sites I soon decided that yours was the one I was going to buy from on the strength of the pictures alone, but then I read the testimonials page and that only convinced me further that only yours were good enough for me.  As I said in one of my earlier emails, I’m a finicky old so-and-so and not easily pleased, but when I opened your parcel this morning I was more than pleased.  In fact I was thrilled to little bits and hugely satisfied.  The piercing acorn eyes of the New Forest Green Man and his little mouse friends is absolutely stunning.  Soon they will take pride of place in my garden and patio.  I usually entertain out there, even, sometimes, in winter (you have to be tough to visit me!) and I just know that they’re going to be a talking point.  I’m sure a lot of my visitors will be interested to know where I got them so I’ll pass on details of your website.

To anyone else reading this; if you haven’t bought from Kathleen before and you’re wondering whether to – well, hesitate no longer and put in an order NOW, right this minute, because I can tell you that you’re not going to be disappointed.  And to back up my own words, this finicky old so-and-so will be placing another order before too long.  Kathleen’s work is not only good to look at, but it’s quality stuff too, well made, no corners cut, and finished to perfection by a superb artist who knows her subject and is dedicated to pleasing her customers.  Well go on then – what are you waiting for – put an order in.  It only takes a minute, and you’ll be pleased you did.

Thanks again Kathleen, and may your business prosper.

Mike

Hi Kathleen,

 

I received my green man (The Face in the Leaves) yesterday morning and I can't tell you how thrilled I was! I have hung it in the kitchen where it looks splendid. I am so pleased with the look of it and the quality - quite unlike anything you could ever buy in the shops; indeed I have been collecting Green Men for about eight years now and they are very hard to find in the shops. Even when I have been to Glastonbury on a special trip just to look for Green Men, I have only ever found a few and they have all been small. I have been disappointed that I can't get any large bold ones. And even Glastonbury hasn't had that many to choose from. So imagine my delight when I found your web site selling mainly Green Men, and so much more unusual and bolder than anything you can buy in the shops (when you can find them). I am so pleased with the first one I have purchased from you, that I intend to buy loads more and will probably end up purchasing nearly all of your designs! Once again thank you so much.
From a very satisfied customer - M R, West Midlands.

 

FEB 10 Dear Kathleen

Just a quick email to let you know the Green Man plaque arrived last Tuesday.  It's absolutely perfect!!
It's actually a present for a friend who lives in the Forest of Dean, so it will be travelling back across the country in a few weeks!

Anyway, just wanted to say thanks - excellent service, and the item is terrific.

Many thanks

Dear Kathleen
 
My name is                                and I ordered the Dafydd Hand Dragon from you and received delivery last Friday. I can not tell you how pleased I am with him. He is absolutely beautiful. The intense details in this is fantastic. It takes an awful lot to impress my husband and when he set eyes on it he asked when I was going to order something else from you.
 
This is to say a very big thank you to you and I will be ordering more fro you in the near future.
 
My babe dragon is in full veiw in my garden for everyone to see and it now my pride and joy.
 
Once again thank you
 
From a very very happy customer

A recent glowing review from the excellent   Healing Spirit Website :

"This site is fabulous. If you are looking to buy any Celtic ornaments for the garden or the home then this site is a must. I have personally bought a number of pieces and I am amazed at the quality and beauty of each of the items. Each piece is unique and Kathleen is able to make any personalized adaptations, within reason, to each of her pieces. The conduct of this business is what I would expect from a Celtic service in terms of integrity and helpfulness."

Dear Kathleen
I have received my Moondancer hare today and it is beautiful.   Once it stops raining here I will decide on the place in the garden for her to go and gaze!  I will have to get my husband to move her as it is too heavy for me.
I was pleased to receive an email yesterday from the couriers telling me the delivery would be today and also thank you for the prompt supply of my order.
One very happy customer
July 09 When my husband told me he had got me a surprise for my birthday, I did not know what to expect!  But when I opened the box rather impressively large box and found 'Shadow' I was thrilled, I adore moongazing  hares.  He is so life like and beautiful, the finish is so sleek and lovely, I can't walk past him without patting him or rubbing him under the chin.  My dilemma now is inside or outside?

Hi Kath,
Thank you for my order that was delivered to-day safe and sound.
As usual, there was my frantic scrabbling through the bubble wrap to get to the contents, ha ha - the Pentagram with goddess was amazing.  I love it... and also the necklace.  Oh, and thank you for the green-man t-light holder.  He is so cute. 
Really love everything that I have ordered from you.  So good to get individual and unusual items of quality that you 'cannot' buy in the shops and chain stores.
Thank you so much once again Kath. 
Take care, from

 

10.6.09 Hi Kathleen
I wanted to say thanks for my Green Man (Green Man and Mice) and Bram (the Gothic Bat) which arrived today.  They are superb!  I am so pleased.  The testimonials state that people are more than pleased with their orders and how well they are packaged - they are spot on.  I ordered these items for my own birthday gift and they will soon be proudly hung on my garden walls.  My Green Man will be on the wall at the bottom of the garden so that I can see him from my kitchen window and he will look over the garden back to me.  Bram will peep out between climbing plants.
You are very talented.  Thanks again.

Dear Kathleen
The Green Man has just arrived.
He is BEAUTIFUL!  We really love him, and the two little mice peeping through the oak leaves.
Thank you so much, we look forward to our next order after we have browsed the web site.  I ordered Cerdwin for myself and the green man for my husband.  Daft really, as they are 'both' going to live in our garden, ha! ha!
All the best Kathleen.
Many thanks again.

ps - Brilliantly packed, I was so excited to open them and it took me ages to get them unwrapped.  (or so it seemed, ha! ha!)
Well done, and thanks....

Ref 3119

I received Caleb the Dragons head for my birthday for my husband,  would just like to say he is fantastic, he is one of the most beautiful items I have ever owned and he is a great addition to our home sitting proudly on our side board, visitors either love or fear him, which is the desired effect, its nice to just touch his nose as we pass, our greyhound is not sure what to make of him and stares for a short while then moves backwards and averts her eyes (very interesting). My father was Welsh so he will always remind me of him and our times and family in Wales.

Hi, I am just writing to say a special thank-you to you for sending Nim to my father  in time so that he could give him to me for my birthday  - dad told me that you have been really busy but you made a special effort to get him to dad in time – I really love him – he is without doubt the best gargoyle that I have seen – in fact too good to go outside so he has taken pride of place in my sitting room where he can look over us every day!

Dear Kathleen  

The two items arrived safe and well on Friday.  We were very impressed by the amount of packaging and by the plaques – they are brilliant.  Bacchus is now on the house wall looking down the garden and the ivy man is great.  Many thanks for such nice items and your speedy dispatch.

25.4.08 Dear Kathleen,
 
Just a note to say that I received my Green Man today and I'm so pleased with him.   I didn't realise that how substantial and weighty he was going to be and I just love the detail in him.
 
He is going to have pride of place at the top of the garden, so that he will be looking down, guarding the garden and house and I will see him every morning, when I sit at the window having a cup of tea.  Another thing is that every time I look at him, he brings a great smile to my face.  It took me quite a while and sifting through various sites on the internet,  I knew exactly what I wanted, but the others didn't fit the bill, until I found yours.

 
With the very warmest of thoughts and the kindest of regards
 
Kathleen

15.4.08 Hi, received this morning.  They are superb!  Well packed as well.  We will
definitely be back for more!  Best regards, Peter

Wonderful workmanship.  By the way, thanks for postage refund.  We'll be ordering
again soon.  All the best, Peter

07.4.08  Hi Kathleen

 I have received my order, and aren't they fabulous.... I really do love
 them. I have also received a cheque for £9.00 for the excess postage, but
 have chucked it in the bin as I feel you deserve the extra money for your
 wonderful creations.
 Thanks ever so much

Hello Kathleen
 
The postman staggered past the window this morning with a huge box! Thank you so much for such prompt and safe passage for Merlin and the Lady of Avalon. Merlin is truly impressive, and will suit his new home very well. The Lady is beautiful, and will also look good where I hope to have her placed. I will send you photos once the stonework is complete around where they are going.
 
Thanks again.
All good wishes
