Greyhound


Beautiful tin. Shame about the spacing between the words MADE IN ENGLAND - you could drive a bus through there.

Still, let's look at the dog... lovely!

Every Girl Needs a Staple Gun


My first upholstery project. I will definitely be doing more of this; Julie is right: every girl needs a staple gun.

Curlew

Today I've done three more birds as part of my fabric collage series. This one is a Curlew.

Ladies and Gentlemen

This is a vinyl sign I designed for our bathroom door.

For ages I had been looking for original mid-century ladies and gents toilet door plaques like the ones you sometimes see in pubs and cafes, until eventually realised I could make my own.

Getting it run out at the signmakers was a pretty expensive, I could have brought the unit cost down if I'd had loads of them done. But hey, I didn't do that.

No, you can't use the toilet here if you don't look like either of these groovy cats. As Kenneth Williams told his visitors, you'll have to make alternative arrangements!
