We are avid followers of Grace Bonney’s Design Sponge especially the Sneak Peek section where you can take a nosey inside some beautifully styled homes. Recently Photographer, Webb Bland’s New Orleans apartment caught our eye. Spot the Italy Type Map Print!
It’s a rare treat for us to drift into ‘Blog Land’ with a cup of tea and digestive in hand – what makes it even more delightful is when we stumble across some great posts featuring our prints. Big thanks to the lovely people at Lark and Potter, Flying Tot, Nest Designs, Issues and Houzz for bigging up Bold & Noble….. 
The dog makes me grin stupidly every time I see him – and he seems to show up a lot in the newspaper and magazine reviews for David Shrigley’s current exhibition ’Brain Activity‘ at the Hayward Gallery. I haven’t been yet but from looking online at the images there are many more laughs in store.
There’s a lot of love about today. Here are some cakes made by Wilf’s friend ‘the lovely Jemima’ aged 3. Super cute, the first thing on his mind was could he eat them (both Mummy) asap. I guess they do say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
Hello. Blogging has been a bit sporadic as I’ve been busy with our new baby Bea and Wilf, I say new but she’s been with us for nearly 6 months – wow it’s whizzed by. She is happily sleeping while I type, awww if only she was so restful at night.
I’ve been mildly creative on my maternity leave, encouraging Wilf to make thank you cards for his Christmas presents. This was met with a bit of resistance, the creative gene hasn’t kicked in yet, he’s much more into trains, ridiculously so, maybe we should have gone for Hornby magazine collages instead. But with some coaxing and a stack of jelly babies as bait we completed 25 cards, mmmm… delighted with the results but we might be more prompt next year if I invest in a ‘thank you rubber stamp’ or just get shop bought!
Also, a snap of our family Christmas card.
Even though it is -3 outside looking at these gorgeous daffodils we spotted on the inspiring Decorator’s Notebook blog make us feel that spring really is just around the corner! Nice print too ;o)
