I'm involved with a fabulous pop up shop in Greenwich from now (29th June) until 23rd of August. It's full of London based designers producing high end products from fashion to interiors as well as beauty and bath to jewellery.

If you get chance get yourself down to 20 Nelson Road in Greenwich and see it all for yourself!

I love La De Dah Cakery

Friday was a brilliant day, as well as having the innocent hamper delivered we also had a visit from Louise, master baker and designer behind La De Dah Cakery. It was great to have Louise and her girls in the studio! 

Louise delivered six fabric inspired cakes as well as a couple just like my wall flowers! We dived in at cake time and they were absolutely fabulous, as well as a expert in cake designs Louise is also a brilliant baker! 

We have just had the fantastic news that Louise will be designing some blue royal themed cupcakes for our pop-up shop opening on the 26th of April. We all fell in love with her classy designs and we have asked Louise use her creative flair to go along with the theme. Can't wait to see what she comes up with!

Save the date

I am really excited to be showing my Blue wallflowers and NEW teal/aqua ECO cushions at the Craft Central pop up shop with three other exciting friends and peers.

Check out the details below and hopefully we will see you there!

With the Royal Wedding set for the 29^th April, four British designers are celebrating the occasion with a weeklong showcase of all things blue.

Including names most frequently found in Selfridges, this one-week installation of interiors products will provide a great opportunity to furnish your own nest, or perhaps to pick up an appropriate wedding gift if you are lucky enough to be heading to Westminster that weekend.

Having borrowed the corner shop exhibition space at Craft Central - Clerkenwell, ‘Something Blue’ will host a mix of handmade home accessories and recycled designer furniture in every shade of the colour. Appearing on the guest list will be the popular aqua teal-wall flowers  by Lorna Syson, navy cushions and upholstery by Sarah-Jayne Guest, and Ellen Calvert will also be introducing her range of turquoise and knitted furnishings alongside Emma Britton’s blue hydrangea floral glass splashbacks.

Even if the Windsor’s invite hasn’t arrived yet, you are warmly invited to save the date, and join us for our celebration of all things old, new, borrowed and blue.

Creative Hearts Pop Up Shop

Hi, my name is Laura, designer-maker behind Laura Felicity.  I hand draw and silk screen print handmade wallpapers and soft interior furnishings for retail and bespoke spaces.

 

The lovely Lorna has asked me to tell you about a great Pop Up Shop which is being held for a brilliant cause...

Creative Hearts is a lovely little Pop Up Shop with a big heart that has been set up in the middle of London from the 3^rd-13^th February 2011. The shop consists of 14 designer-makers from a variety of disciplines including, jewellery, textiles, paper, print and ceramics, who have come together to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.

Each designer has created unique heart pieces especially for the Pop Up Shop as well as showing their uniquely created products from their current collection, perfect for an opportunity to spend money on yourself or buy a present for Valentine’s Day.

 

Some of my favourites from the shop are; London Kills Me who screen print beautiful interior and fashion accessories, Sarah Morpeth produces gorgeous cut-paper books, cards and mobiles, Namiko Murakoshi creates ceramic pieces with quirky dotty 3D elements, and Squash Bespoke Cushions machine knitted and hand finished techniques create lovely warm and cosy cushions.
