Bedroom bliss

What is your favourite room in the home? Mine is my bedroom. It's like my nest and my haven where I can chill out and feel relaxed. I love to surround myself with pleasing ornaments, artwork and scented candles. With this in mind I decided to create a piece of artwork depicting the perfect bedroom scene with crisp white bedding, co-ordinating scatter cushions in shades of terracotta, mustard and grey and a soft pink colour for the wall. 

Plants, books and artwork surround the bed and a nice hot cuppa sits waiting for its recipient.

This artwork is printed onto a lovely thick water-colour paper and would make a great housewarming gift. Each artwork is sealed in a plastic envelope, gift wrapped in pink tissue paper and sent in a hard-backed envelope.

Indian inspiration

Friday's favourite fabric consisted of a selection of pieces that I bought whist in India last year. I was quite productive over the weekend and here is the first little creation from that selection. It's a melange of items that I have picked up on my travels, using a vibrant purple and gold sari fabric from India, combined with a purple Japanese obi fabric. I decided to add a trim of terracotta gross grain ribbon from France to create an accent, which has also been picked up in the colour of the lining.

You can find it in my Etsy store here.

Terracotta and Green

I have just added these juicy clutch bags to my Etsy store.

I love making all my bags, but have especially enjoyed making these ones, which are a combination of obi and kimono fabrics that I have collected from antique markets around Tokyo. The obi is the sash worn around the kimono and is usually woven or embroidered in vibrant colors. These ones have an amazing shot of gold design to add a bit of bling.
