keeping things simple is my natural inclination - having a little brainstorm & letting your imagination run away with you is all very well but, to my eyes, allowing every idea to make it to the final cut can just become confused.

in the past customers have apologised to me when they’ve described &made products as simple but i do understand the comment - & really, it is a compliment - keeping things simple allows the details room to be seen;
the lovely, slubby weave of the contrasting panel in the heavy, dark denim of this over sized tote, finished with hand stitched bar details on black leather handles.
look inside, all the likes for the subtleties of this blue two ways, hash print, lining, an internal zipped pocket & integral key keep - saving time on the key rummage!

no.1 of the new collection - denim, cotton, leather - a perfect, & simple, partnership!

M O N D A Y , m o n d a y . . .

who doesn’t like monday morning - the start of the week, full of potential & making progress with all those things you want you achieve in your working week, not to mention that it’s following a sunday, where more than likely, you were ticking all those other jobs off the list - jobs that need doing, not necessarily the ones you want to do!

our sunday was so cool & slightly breezy, perfect gardening weather & there was an ‘open gardens’ event in our area this weekend - so much tidying, clipping & pruning & lawn manicuring in the lead up - rich pickings in the sweeping up including these dainty, bramley apple windfalls from our tree - it inspired me into a summertime nature table offering.

all the likes for the greens, the lines & shapes, the lush & lovely sights & smells of summer!

apple, ash, astrantia, box, campanula, cherry, chestnut, geum, honesty, hornbeam, hydrangea, ivy, laurel, meadow barley, plantain, rose, sweet pea, tiny snail shells & an escaped twist of garden twine!
