THE NIGHT SKY
A random cutting of paper stuck to my sisters tights and made this pretty image of a night sky :)
WEATHER
I woke up yesterday and it was all misty and the spiders had decided to make lots of webs all over our bush it was amazing.
NEW OLD JUMPER
Although this is not a new jumper its new to me, I went to a vintage fair this weekend and I found this gem :)
LONDON DESIGN FESTIVAL 2011
I was lucky enough to design the catalogue this year for LDF 2011 while at Pentagram. It was a great project and the whole identity is so strong, great work team Lippa. See more here http://pentagram.com/en/new/2011/09/new-work-london-design-festiva-3.php
DAD
People have always said ‘you look just like your dad’ and when my dad pulled out these photos of him as a child I have never agreed more, I could see myself in his eyes its so amazing. Also here is a picture of my dads mum she always used to make us hot ribeana and we used to play in the garden just like my dad did so many years before us, it really puts a smile on my face.
CAR INSURANCE
I have just bought car insurance for my new car and as I went through compare the market I get a free meerkat toy as well as a personalised video, now that is service I want to buy all my insurance through them just for the toy and video!!!
FAMILY TIME
It was my dads birthday two weeks ago so we took a family day trip to a historic castle – Hever, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, Henry 8th second wife who was beheaded after only a few years of marriage. It was a really beautiful day out.
SHAKING THE TREE
Every year me my dad and sister have a tradition of shaking the apple tree in our garden, we then use the apples to make home made apple juice and cider and this year we had a bumper crop!
LADYBIRD CLASSICS
These are some of my latest charity shop gems! They are old ladybird books aimed to help children learn but for me the illustrations are so beautiful. The topics are also so varied and I love the stars, dinosaurs and Denmark so these books will now sit proudly on my book shelf.
OLD DAYS
My sister found these this weekend while tidying up, they are pictures from a holiday in Dorset we had with our family, they are so good, so happy we found them!
