Baby Bird Cushion
Boyfriend’s Mummy loves her illustrated “Baby Bird” cushion which I gave as her Christmas gift.
Pet Cushions
A little pet cushion commission I completed for a dear friend to give her husband on Christmas Day….featuring beloved doggie pet “Godfrey” to go with the cushion of her gorgeous Persian cat ‘Sooty’.
The ‘Godfrey Dog’ cushion was made using colour and pattern to compliment the vintage floral background of ‘Sooty Cat’….I think they look delightful together….
A ceramic ‘Toybox’ for adults
I’d like to consolidate all of my design ideas (from my present sketchbook) into one large piece to create an eclectic, kitsch ceramic box (like a toy box but to serve as a trinket holder for adults).
The illustrations on the outside will serve as a visual diary which capture everything which inspires me from vintage dolls and florals to kitsch, childlike puppy illustrations.
This keepsake box will be used to hold treasured items of sentimental value, reminiscent of childhood memories and nostalgia….
Gorgeous Ceramics
Just came across some gorgeous little ceramic pieces by Bristol based Little Birdy Crafts I’m absolutely in love with the charm of the characters, intricate detailing and vivid colours…. LOVE
Vintage Kitsch
Constant visits to the quirky little Vintage clothing and bric-a-brac shops in Bristol are starting to go to my head……..
