Birthday Fun!

It was my birthday yesterday and I thought I'd post these beautiful flowers I had from my family and the amazingly sparkly cakes my mum made, gorgeous! (and they tasted pretty good too!). The flowers came in this great green box complete with ribbon, you can find their flowers here...
the bouquet had English garden roses and fresh herbs so it smells amazing!

Eighth Time Lucky?

The news stories regarding Paul the psychic octopus have amused me no end. He has successfully predicted the outcome of all of Germany's matches this World Cup and have inspired some of the best news headlines and captions I've seen! One article read "Psychic Octopus Unfazed by Death Threats' and told of a potential 'paella threat'. Anyway it has inspired and made us laugh a great deal in the studio so above is my response and click here to see Bex's! Now we have to wait and see if he's right for the final....

Mostyn Gallery / Llandudno

Managed to pop into the recently opened Mostyn Gallery in Llandudno on our way to Anglesey. The building itself inside is beautiful and the space really great. The exhibition was 'We have the Mirrors, We have the Plans' and is a look at whether art reflects society today amongst other things. Click here to see the rest of the exhibition photos.

Bore da!

Last week Tom and I went to Wales for a short break and managed to cram in two galleries! We stayed for a night in the small town of Ruthin and visited the craft centre there, which apart from it's cool building had some great open studios.



The weather was great for three days out of four so we spent a lot of time on the beach (albeit wrapped up well- it's still Wales and extremely breezy!). The forest and beach in Newborough were truly beautiful...

Lovely Louis

The latest Louis Vuitton window in Manchester, is it wrong to love the window illustrations more than the bags?! It reminded me of a window we did at Firecatcher a while ago for our shop at the time...


Tea party window!
