Artists and Makers at Lewes Town Hall, Lewes, Sussex, 12th November 2011

I will be exhibiting at Lewes Town Hall, North street on 12 th November 2011 from 10am-5pm. Lampshades and bases, stock and seconds at great prices. It would be lovely to see you there.

Even more stripes...!

We love stripes and we can't get enough, diagonal stripes remind us of circus tents and barbers (red and white ones anyway)....New to www.notonthehighstreet.com is our new collection of shades in great two colour combinations.

Bringing a little 'tongue in cheek' humour to lighting

 These are the latest designs from the studio, a witty tongue in cheek shade featuring lacy lingerie casually shed and flung during a heady, passionate session of 'afternoon delight'. Working in collaboration with Wendy Chapple, talented screen printer and stylist we used the simple direct exposure method to print the trompe l'oeil lifesize bra, knickers and stockings from those upmarket purveyors of ladies undergarments, 'Agent Provocateur'.   Soon to be available on 'notonthehighstreet.com' Please request alternative colours and sizes.

Spring clean

I was just tidying up the ribbons in the studio, they looked so pretty, I had to post them.

A Christmas tree with Paula Pryke

Paula Pryke, one of our finest and well known florists and I worked on this Christmas project  together for the Conran's 'Boundary' Hotel. This is the sample, unfortunately the project didn't go ahead, such a shame.  The top half is made from a specially made florists frame and woven satin ribbon.
