Ebay mania


I'm very excited - I won this vintage letter stamp set on Ebay last night (although I did have to set my alarm for 4am to make sure I got it!!) Can't wait to have a play :)

Ceramic Type

Whilst surfing the web at the weekend, I cam across this gorgeous work from Ceramic artist Stephanie Dearmond, based in the US.

Alphabet Art for cool kids

Just put up on Etsy my new art prints. I've been working on these for a while trying to get them right, and I'm really pleased with the results. I've drawn the icons on the computer, inspired by retro 50's designs. They'll look cool in any kids bedroom.

Creativadoration

Day 1 of the shop, and the lovely Janick emailed me to say she had chosen my pebbles to be featured in her blog "Creativadoration". Click here to see.

Letterfest Shop Launch

How exciting! As of yesterday we are live on etsy - click here to see the shop. I took lots of photos around the house, and tried to write as much as possible in the description. And when I woke up this morning I had 4 really positive emails from other etsy peeps, and 143 people had made me their favourite! Apparently I was also on the front page (but I was asleep so I missed it!) No sales yet, but fingers crossed.



Letters, letters, everywhere


On a recent visit to The Eden Project in Cornwall we came across this wall of letters. It was in an exhibition on recycling and sustainability. They'd made a whole wall out of old fridge doors, and stuck those little magnetic letters all over them - visitors could up their own phrases and words (the pics of my mate Amanda).

Travel notes

Over the past ten years or so, me and the hubby have managed a fair few trips abroad, to some fantastic places. And wherever we go, we're always on the look out for wierd, kitsch and fabulous signage. Heres some I love.
