Ceramics by Natalie Moore

I've recently been having pangs for the ceramics industry. If you've ever worked with ceramics you'll know it's a gorgeous product and medium to work with. On my nostalgia web search I came across the beautiful work of Natalie Moore. www.nataliemooredesign.co.uk

A New Year and new designs

The mince pies are gone. the tree is down and I've been for a new years run this morning (I was feeling v unhealthy so it's time to do something on the fitness front) It's also time to start looking at everyday themes and designs. I'm currently working on some pieces that capture a vintage feel, whilst hopefully keeping something of the modern and fresh. Hope you like the details from the image! Fingers crossed it's a good 2012 too!

Merry Christmas! See you in 2012!

Wishing you all a lovely Christmas and a healthy and prosperous 2012! Looking forward to a creative new year! See you on Jan 3rd 2012. Time for a mince pie...

Christmas Stockings

Here's another of my latest :) I'd hoped to get more done for the xmas season, but, as they say, Rome wasn't built in a day.

Bath House in Kirby Lonsdale

Kirby Lonsdale is just down the road from where I live (v pretty and worth a visit), so today I popped into the Bath House flagship store. The gifts are simply gorgeous, as is the collections of home and gift items they have in the store. I've blogged some of their more recent collections for you to have a look at. They're very on trend but keep the to the Bath House brand look too. I also picked up these two 'vintage look' cards by Picture Palace, who are affiliated with Bath House (based in nearby Sedbergh) which are designed around the vintage trend which continues to gather pace. Hope you like the goodies :)

Bauble Wreath Illustration

Here's one of my latest designs available via Advocate. Originally designed on a white a background I placed the black background on towards the end of the illustration, and the colours just went 'pop'! Time for more Santa's and scenes now...

Ian Dutton Designs

I've recently received this fantastic Ian Dutton festive picture and card in the post and thought I'd share it with you : ) Ian has a wealth of experience working with many big high street names, including Next (where the card is from). As you can see his work is fantastic. If you'd like to see more or contact him for projects his website is www.ianduttondesigns.com. Check out my twinkly tree lights in the reflection!
