Deadly is the female...

Wow amazing window in Frome! Shop closed so couldn't go inside. Looked like there were some vintage remakes as well as originals- gorgeous!

Large stanley knife...

Isn't this the biggest craft blade you've ever seen?! Located somewhere on the Sussex Downs UK.

Hide the meter box...

This is an after and before story....because I don't want the 'before' appearing at the top of the page! A transformation from an ugly, dirty and distressing household must-have to a quirky, useful display area for my collection of vintage childrens' storybooks. Having stared at the ugly (see below) for 3 years I had an inspiration moment, tipped out the contents of a storage box and hung it onto the meter box - it stayed there MIRACULOUS - and it was a good colour. The books hide the wires. I am happy....

Brilliant idea...

I really admire Gemma's artistry - she's created a fabulous vintage style product that is both useful and beautiful! Good luck with the business Gemma. Addendum Feb 2012: very similar versions of this now being sold in Oz in an 'out of town' retail chain......not nearly as nice!

Isabel Berglund’s knit universe - how cool is this? How did she do it - with a machine or needles?

Paper stars...

I haven't seen anyone else make these stars since primary school!

Studio...

My studio is being reinstated after 4 years! Partition walls, door and window areas created...3 more weeks and I'm moving in. I can hardly wait to get creative in a messy way again. Avoiding going back out into the rain to continue planting in 3 bamboos, I found a fun article by Sister Raya about workspaces and agree with her......MESSY STUDIO

Where do odd socks go?...

This cute lil oddsock has returned from a 6 month trip around India, Nepal, Vietnam and Thailand. Sadly his partner didn't make it and was lost somewhere near the Taj Mahal...
