New Studio

I have just got the keys to my brand new studio... and what fine windows these are.
I moved house and studio just before Christmas so currently living out of cardboard boxes and am so looking forward to getting the new space up and running asap. A lick of white paint and what will I do with those windows?

Happy New Year and finally...

Great start to a new year for me. Finally after 3 years of ups and downs, trials and sampling I am very pleased to announce that all my window film designs are now available on a Non PVC and
phthalate free material, a small contribution to a greener world. This is all possible as I have teamed up with US company 10 Roof Cottage LLC. It has been a really important personal quest for me to develop and produce this product with as many green credentials as it can be. When I launched the product in 2006 it was impossible to find a non PVC material but now material manufacturing in this area is finally developing non PVC substitutes and we are lucky to be working with a great company that has supported this development. We will continue to develop and research within this area but I am so pleased to have finally got this far. Thank You 10 Roof Cottage!

Future flora?

 
On a recent visit to the aquarium with the little un, we fell in love with these. I know it's a jelly fish but can't help thinking that in another 2 million years that some new species of flower could look like these. Transparent flowers .....now that could make interesting planting?

Do you use window films?

Holly over at Decor8 has asked this question . She has kindly included my films in this debate.
The comments are really interesting. Great to read all the DIY solutions people have come up with. But most of all it's lovely to read comments from  past customers who have used my films. Its great to hear that the WF's  fulfil what I set out to do and have spent a long time developing. To offer function and beauty and very soon ..... on  a new non PVC film.  This has been 3 years of development and testing.  Oh  so very excited to offer a green window film. Function, Beauty and Green. Watch this space.

Origin Stand - N&n Shop coming soon

Snap shot of my Stand at Origin this year. It has been a few wee years since I have done a direct selling show at event such as this and it was wonderful to meet so many other makers.    A big thank you to everyone who bought a neck piece and an even bigger thank you for waiting until you receive the pieces at the end of Oct/early Nov ( I did rather well, and had to take orders for the last 3 days).

It was interesting to do a show again and get direct feedback on the work... so important as creative outputs/ feedback can tend to be all online now.  We are busy putting the finishing touches to the new N&n online shop so hopefully all those who missed the show can check them out very soon.

FT - How to Spend it - A personal service for beautiful surfaces


A belated Thank you  to the FT  and Charlotte Abrahams who interviewed me recently about my bespoke services.  I am indeed the bespoke surface person... I love bespoke projects creating something unique for a client keeps me awake at night dreaming of colours and patterns to adorn windows or other surfaces. More often than not I don't see the finished result as usually the pieces are not installed by me. But it is always lovely to know they are adorning windows worldwide and sometimes I get reports from friends who have spotted them around the globe....
