Lots of traffic through my shop last night and heres the reason why, my geometric purse made the Etsy front page, always good news!

'Coppice' by Mary White

just a couple of new covers to share with you this morning, both now in my etsy shop!

Karen McPhail ceramics

While blog browsing this morning I fell in love with the work of Karen McPhail as featured on Bloesem blog. She trained many years ago but stopped working when she had children worked for some time in pre school care and has now returned to making (sounds familiar!) and is now producing the most stunning ceramics using transfers and glazes with a wonderful collage style.

You can see her work here and it is also for sale here.

Cushions in Copenhagen

Today some shots from a customer, Tina Fussell, who purchased some covers from me and kindly sent me pictures, which are also featured on her blog Flying House by Traveling Mama
There are lots more beautiful shots of her apartment in Copenhagen on her blog. Her home is a beautiful mix of old and new, it is effortlessly stylish, but most importantly it is a real lived in home, and that is so good to see. Not only can you see her home on her blog but also super style blog Decor8 who have a feature on her apartment (and yes my covers are there too! eeeek!)

You might also like to check out Tinas etsy store where she sells cards and jewellery and also here where she and her husband collaborate in the most beautiful photos.

I am hoping to set up a gallery on my blog of home shots with my covers in as I have quite a few squirrelled away. If you have photos you would like to share let me know, I would love to see them, it is a real treat to see how my covers look in their new homes!

Pins

A little while ago I was told by a friend about Pinterest, and so now as well as reading blogs while I have my coffee I can also lose myself in this feast of visuals. Pinterest works like a scrapbook, you can 'pin' images from the net and collect them on your own pinboards with various themes. You can also follow other peoples boards and repin their images onto your own. I love it, such a simple way to collect together ideas and inspiration.

You can follow my boards by clicking on the Pinterest button to the right of my blog.

From the Wilde

I am delighted to now have Thirtyfive Flowers cushions and purses available at From the Wilde! They are keeping company with some fantastic designers from around the UK and right now my yellow connections cushion is right up there on the front page, bringing out the sun!

I am also thrilled that my own printed purses are included, soon to be followed by some new designs, busy, busy!

Vintage cushions

I was thrilled this morning to see this photo from Kristin at KLTWorks of her gorgeous home and two of my vintage covers looking so stunning next to her own designs. Check out her blog for a further sneak peek of her home, which is a colour filled space with great mix of new and vintage style.
