If I didn’t rent my place, these shelves would be alllll over!
Lovely work by Su Blackwell at the Manchester Art Gallery until 27th.
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt from Kirstie’s Vintage Home (Context for non British followers: Kirstie Allsopp has been running series about handmade things for the last few years, her new series is helping people make their messy homes well designed with vintage and upcycled inspiration) is that gold leaf is actually pretty cheap, REALLY hardwaring and looks fabulous. So I’ve been looking at gold leaf crafts, and this one from Curbly is lovely!

Yesterday I did a mobile workshop with Donna Wilson. We were told to tell a story through the mobile, I chose the Owl and the Pussycat and turned an old hymn book into this! I’m not gonna lie, I’m more proud of this thing that I made in 5 hours than anything else I’ve made this year!
