Wallpaper Wednesday: 'Whimsical Collection' by Cole & Son

This week we were treated to the fabulous new collection from Cole and Son called 'Whimsical'; '...A nostalgic and enchanting selection of magical wallpapers, inspired by the classic childhood stories and fairy tales of our youth....'The collection introduces new designs, as well as remastered versions of some of our best selling classics such as the 'Woods' design - this time including a gorgeous wee star graphic among the trees, so sweet for a child's room!

Fabulous Friday Felt Work

British artist Lucy Sparrow has taken a run down, empty store in east London and created a light, bright, colourful cornerstore filled to the brim with all sorts of goodies... FELT goodies that is!

Lucy has hand crafted every single item in the shop, including the cash register! Magazines, candy, beer... you name it, it's felt! The wee 'art installation' is open til the end of August. Our lovely Katie is currently on that side of the world, maybe we should send her in to check it out!?

A Royal Connection

Well the whirlwind royal tour is over - buy into it or not - it certainly creates a bit of a buzz in the city which is nice! 

We had a little buzz of our own; over the last few years we have been working closely with the fantastic team out at the beautiful Wharekauhau Lodge, on the Wairarapa coast, which most recently has included work on some new soft furnishings. We were delighted to know that our work was appreciated by the royal couple during their first‘secret’ weekend in Wellington during their stay at the Lodge. 

The weather was atrocious, but I’m sure they would have still enjoyed their time on the wild southern Wairarapa coast – it’s beautiful out there, rain or shine!  

Well done Team – another great job.
