Lovely totes for lovely stockings!


Christmas is coming!!! Are you excited?? We are! Are you the kind of person that has already nailed all of your Christmas shopping, wrapped it up and tied it with ribbons already? Or will you be running around like a headless chicken on Christmas Eve?? Whatever type of festive shopper you are, we think that our handprinted tote bags could be just the thing for filling your stockings! We have LOTS of designs so there's something for everyone! Lovingly handprinted, heat cured and with our own branded label sewn in, our tote bags make a sweet, fun and useful pressie! They come wrapped in cute little sweetie bags too.

EXCITING!!






Meet George! The necklace that goes with everything! This Chameleon necklace is a collaboration with designosaur, our best Brighton craft buddies who also happen to make the greatest jewellery in the World (www.designosaurYEAH.etsy.com)

Jam (one half of hello DODO) dreamt up the idea of a chameleon necklace that was a bold statement but also blended in with whatever outfit you wore him with. We took the idea to designosaur and they loved it, so George was born!
George, is a grumpy chameleon. He is laser cut from very slightly green tinted acrylic, and is perched on a cherry wood laser cut branch before being hung from a 40cm long silver plated curb chain.

George comes in a beautiful designosaur branded box with an insert which is a two colour screenprint in peacock blue and metallic silver water-based, toxic-free ink handprinted on to 400gsm matt card.



Co-designed by ourselves and designosaur before being laser cut and assembled by designosaur and packaged in a designosaur box handprinted by hello DODO all in Sunny Brighton!

An order from a lovely Paris-based customer for three screenprints...we slipped an extra dodo shaped print in there too. It's always lovely to send an 'il pleut' to France!

The other evening as we were going to bed we noticed this little guy fast asleep on top of a picture frame in our flat. He could barely keep his eyes open! He was obviously very sleepy from learning how to fly. We left the window open for the night and by morning he'd gone off on his merry way (we were a tad disappointed...) Can anyone tell what kind of bird he is from this blurry shot?

Fairy Tale Fair Summer 2013 :o)

Last weekend we returned to the magical Fairy Tale Fair in Patcham! This was the fourth time we've sold at this gorgeous event, the first time being last summer...one of our first ever fairs EVER! The Fairy Tale Fair is organised be the lovely Claire of Cat-a-Cake Creations, who as well as designing her own fantastic range of cute and colourful acrylic jewellery, works INSANELY hard on promoting the fair and all of the sellers. Seriously, no-one could work harder or put more hours in than this girl! We've got to do a shout out to her lovely parents too who also work really hard to ensure the smooth running of the fair!

I didn't take too many photos and the ones I did take were on my phone so please excuse the shoddy quality!

Sitting opposite Toby's stall all day was a bit like torture.....soooo many lovely things that I wanted! He has so many exciting new products too! I treated myself eventually to a handpainted ring...

Mooshpie's stall is always beautifully presented and full of handprinted goods which are filled with magic and stories. This lady screenprints, goccos, illustrates, binds books, animates... I'm pretty sure there's nothing she can't do :o)

The beautiful work of Cat-a-Cake Creations...I LOVE the new Carrousel Collection! Check out the GIANT ice cream necklace! This particularly pleases me as I find no-one ever makes jewellery big enough...bigger the better :D

And here's a photo of us both! This photo was taken by Kate Trevor who was photographing the event. I look pretty idiotic but it's nice to have pics of us both on the stall for once.
The next Fairy Tale Fair is on the 16th of November DO NOT MISS IT!! :o)

Black Cat Screen print :o)


This cheeky black cat is now available in our Etsy shop as a handprinted A3 screenprint.
We screen printed him and the sad little fish in his belly on our kitchen work top using water based jet black ink. We aren't allowed actual pet's in our flat (silly renting rules!) but these two little characters make us very happy instead :o)
