Ethical Trend…..Crikey Crockery!

What could be more perfect? Beautiful Crockery ( “Love” number 1 ) lovingly sourced from junk shops / car boot sales and flea markets ( “Love” number 2 ) and turned into amazing and useful design ( “Love” number 3)... I first blogged about Sarah Cihat and her rehabilitated dishware in February and have since spotted lots of designers transforming unwanted kitchenalia. So, I thought I would continue the theme....

Moving House and Home...

I have to apologise for the lack of posts recently - I have been desperate to get back and start blogging again but we have been without the Internet for a month while we organised before and after the move. Luckily it all went to plan and we are getting settled into the new flat! I have an office/ study /studio space now which means I have no excuse what-so-ever to not get in here and finally do some work! It is slightly larger that my corner of the lounge before and is all very exciting! It still looks a bit bare but I am sure I will soon perk it up!
before and.... ...after.
