christmas at found

the 'rock'n'roll christmas' project was finally revealed at Found last thursday - Nik and Olivia have made a great looking display which involved painting three layers of white paint on cassettes. It was a fun evening of very posh Bertinet mince pies and mulled cider (I wasn't sure about this as I'm such a fan of the mulling of the wine but it turned out to be delicious...and pretty potent). The highlight for me was a lady of fashion loving my new coat! Pictures of that, bags and prints in the next few days. Buy them here... http://foundbath.bigcartel.com/products please!

voila - plates!

sneaky peak

just a quick sneaky peak of John et Yoko on the drying rack (more drying rack shots.....I know I'm getting a bit repetitive but I like the piles of the same image)...anyway as I was saying, a sneaky peak... I was going to show the proper/actual prints but I'm getting them framed and they are to be revealed at Found (a rather snazzy boutique/stationery store in Bath www.foundbath.co.uk , they sell great stationery and the best stripey tops and fluffy wool black dresses and basically I want everything) next thursday...which may well make for more glamorous photos than my usual scrappy numbers.

woaaaaaah - paper cuts

the last few days have been a frenzy of cutting up card and paper for embossing and the semi secret ceramic project I'm working on (to be revealed pretty damn soon-ish)...

if you happen to have eagle eyes you can just about pick out the embossed bit at the bottom of here. The embossed prints should be finished at the weekend. Yay!

boxes of delight

last saturday I printed 100 boxes for New House Textiles - the plan is that if one buys three of my rather delightful tea towels (if I do say so myself) one will receive them packaged in a handprinted box - how marvellous and what a lovely christmas gift it would make for ones chums. The scheme isn't up and running yet (possibly as they're tucked away in a bigger box at the print studio) but I'll announce it when it happens, it's bound to be mentioned on their website (newhousetextiles.co.uk) too. whooooooo

alternative uses for tea towels 1

here we have my friend Melanie's cat, Oscar, looking a little cross at being woken up from a mouse-filled-dream snooze on his freshly laundered Charlotte Farmer tea towel (it is a tester tea towel but he's still a lucky blighter to have such a luxury blanket)

croissant et le grande pants

busy busy week last week...here's some of what I've been up to, it involved croissants and pants (and its not everyday you get to say that) it was for the Bloomsburystore catalogue which should be out soonish. back to drawing things this week - hurrah!

I've got a website - oh yes!

spent the weekend printing flyers so that I can finally mention that I have a website - oh yes I do...

I went for a posh kong to announce the good news.

so if you do happen to find yourself with some time to spare why not take a look...its...
