New Collections

After a slight work-based diversion to mosaics (more on this later) I couldn't wait to get back into the studio to use that fab paper I got last month in New York.

One paper - many options

Rather stupidly this involved working on Good Friday, which turned out to be a beautiful sunny day and so should have been spent lounging on the beach drinking coffee and getting sunburnt. But never mind - the muse must be appeased.

As is so often the case, some patterns work better than others, and some of the ones that did were a surprise!  This gold on cloudy blue looks unexpectedly stunning and the complexity of the design means that there are lots of options.  I shall definitely be making more of these.

I have also decided to change the way I design and sell online too.

Pieces, particularly the brooches, will form part of twice-yearly collections - Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter - and the online stock will change accordingly in March and September (though it will be the end of April for S/S this year).  I'll certainly be using some of these new papers for the new S/S16 range!

As a result, I'm clearing some old stock, and have created a special 'Last Chance To Buy' section in the shop.  Click HERE to take a look - they're available until 30th April 2016.  Prices are reduced as well.
