Inspiration - gifts

Festive greetings everyone, I hope you all had a great Christmas break.  I wanted to share a few of the lovely gifts I was lucky enough to receive as inspiration to you for pattern and homewares.

This gorgeous notebook, I love the pattern so much!  

I received the cute blue vase on the left, this and the others you can get from Anthropologie.

A holographic deer notebook!

 My friend, Helen, made this Christmas card

 I love this 'make do and mend' tea towel from Pintuck.

DESIGN - Stylised hand-painted floral

This is a hand painted floral I did at work last season, inspired by Josef Frank. I painted the individual flowers and plants and then scanned in and arranged on Photoshop and filled the back ground in a navy blue. Think I'd like it as wallpaper!

PRESS - Hamper textile design

Hello, this is one of my textile designs from work in Country homes and Interiors, May 2011 issue. It's the Vintage floral hamper down the bottom right corner!
