On a recent trip to Amsterdam, I came across this super stripey wall in a restaurant. Strips of varying colours added some vibrancy to the interior of this huge open plan room. Love it!

...wandering the streets of London at the moment is pure a visual pleasure. These are the lights hanging along the streets around the seven dials. How wonderful? More to come soon of my favourite festive findings.

We Make...

...is happening tomorrow! Myself and a few other like-minded makers decided we needed an affordable place to sell our wares in London. Soon we realised it was limited and expensive so we formed a little collective and here we are on our second Art and Craft show! We Make is about smaller, independent makers being able to sell their stuff, how they want to and has the 'lets just do it ourselves!' ethos. Join us tomorrow for a jam packed festive day...carol singers...craft demos...knitting...mince pies...and of course a vast array of handmade goodies to buy! more info on our blog here.
