Quote

While travelling in Australia I quickly picked up a pencil to start sketching in my travel journal. It happened to have the quote - "Be silly, be honest, be kind" on ♥

Guilty Pleasure

I have a new guilty pleasure - 'House Gift' on ITV. House Gift sees Laurence LB and other interior designers battle it out to find the ultimate gift for someone's home, each with a budget of £200, £500 or £1000. In today's show Danielle Proud picked some 'Decanter Lights' created by Lee Broom, and I adore them! See some of his work below, and catch House Gift tomorrow at 2pm! X

Beatrice K Newman

At the 2009 Hand and Lock awards I was lucky enough to meet Beatrice, I had won third prize in the student category and Beatrice received a very well deserved first. I have been following her work since then and pleased to say she is doing extremely well for herself. She is a super talented young lady, and certainly one to watch! Just this evening one of her creations has been worn by Alesha Dixon at the Brits. Well done Beatrice! Read a great interview with her at Spot On: TEXTILES. X

Treasures and Trinkets

I'm very lucky to have such thoughtful friends. Katy at Fison-Zair and Heather at Little Red have recently treated to me to some lovely bits, here's a little selection (there was more!). I think the nicest thing about these bits is that they've picked up here and there, when they see something I would love. Lots of little bits to find homes for, particularly in my printer's tray. I've currently got something up my sleeve that I'm making for them, details soon! X







BHLDN

BHLDN (pronounced 'beholden' - 'to keep' in Dutch) is the latest sister to Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters. This wedding line will offer dresses, shoes, hair pieces, lingerie etc. and the website goes live tomorrow! Now I'm certainly not planning my big day anytime soon but some of these fabrics are wonderful, and I couldn't resist a post! X
