I found this designer from Cockpitarts as seen in the previous link. I love her use of textiles such as tweeds and knits. I was  inspired by this mood board, and in particular her textured fabrics.

Laser Cut Felt

Laser cut decals in my home.

I have a liking for laser cut felt at the moment, in fact laser cut anything! I like the clean lines and the exactness of the designs. The cuff at the top doubles up as a coffee cup sleeve for those Starbucks take aways! I suppose this liking has been with me for a while if you check back some of my very first posts and see the images of the laser cut wood veneer decals I have in my family room.

I just love this! Relatives of mine used to hunt and have many deer heads on their wall, but I'm just not so sure about the real McCoy, so to speak. This is the perfect alternative don't you think? A fantastic piece of modern art. The variations available are made using beautiful coloured papers, very funky.

Emma Bridgewater Pottery Cafe

I died and went to heaven earlier this week. On our way North through the country we stopped by the Emma Bridgewater Factory Store. I was greeted by a sign " Spot your own mugs"... Yes it meant I could really paint my own Emma Bridgewater China. Well, needless to say I was beside myself with excitement!! Three mugs later and a scrummy cup of coffee and cake, I left gloriously happy. They will now fire my work and post them on to us withing 10 days. I was like a kid in a sweetie shop. I hope to go back soon, this time prepared to paint and with design ideas in my head!

I have just found these adorable personalised pictures on Etsy. They would make a lovely Mothers day gift or birthday present. I am working out who all I can buy them for. Aren't they shoes so cute? There are many variations that the artist will do for you, go on have a look...

I have just come across this pouffe in Heals. It's by the fab Orla Kiely. Still no sign of her range of homewares that are available in the US here in the Uk yet unfortunately, especially at the great prices they get them for too! Affordable design... that's what we need!!

I just love the log bowls from loyalloot. They are so simple, yet so stylish. The colours are fantastic too. Wish they were available in the UK!

Orla Kiely new Range 2009

I have just found this fabby new range of Orla Kiely homewares on fellow bloggers site orange you lucky. I love them! They are due to be launched in the US store, Target, in February. Oh how I wish they were available in the UK! I seem to only be able to find Orlas range of mugs on sites here. On a recent trip to London I didn't quite make it to her Covent Garden store, but it's on my list of "Thing I'd love to do..." If you haven't seen her work it's well worth a visit to her site. Heals in the Uk also sell a range of her designs... their Orla Kiely "Stem" door mat is on my wants list...
orange you lucky!
