So happy with the photoshoot that used some of the eka interiors range, we even got a cushion sitting next to one made by Jonathan Adler, he’s my interior design idol so you can imagine how proud I was when I saw it! : )

New 91 Magazine Online Now

There is a new issue out of the wonderful 91 magazine, it’s full of mouthwateringly lovely pictures of interiors and another of my other obsessions, gorgeous stationary. I hope I can take some inspiration from there for the new house : )

Holiday Time : )

It’s been a long time coming, but we’re now almost set for holiday time, I know, later than the average holiday time, but I’m hoping for an Indian Summer…well it’s always good to dream! : )

We’re packing in all we can into a small amount of time! First we’re off to Polzeath in Cornwall for a family/surf holiday (really hope my foot is ok for that) on the 20th for 2 weeks. Then, last year I won second prize in the Free Tibet Raffle and so we’re off to stay in a boutique hotel in Slovenia for 2 nights in the first week of September.

Then, as a super-dooper treat, we’re heading to a Design Hotel in Greece for 8 days of lounging and sunning ourselves before the winter sets in. Can’t wait to check this hotel out, our experience of the places in Mexico from Designhotels.com was fantastic, so fingers crossed for the ultimate hotel experience in Halkidiki too. Here’s some images from the site, hope the sun is shining as bright when we get there in October!

New House

Well, some very exciting things have been happening lately, it feels about time 2012 brought some good things to my door. So far the bad has far outweighed the good, apart from the arrival of little Amber into our family, my niece, such a beauty and I was lucky enough to be there when she came too, my sister Jane is incredible, I’d forgotten how double hard she is, she made the job look easy, well kinda : S

The most recent news is that we have bought an amazing little farmhouse in the Swedish countryside, it even has a little lake in the garden! I’m beyond excited about moving there, it’s so peaceful and beautiful, the house needs some styling, but that’s kind of my favourite thing, if it was finished I wouldn’t be interested I don’t think! I am looking forward to setting up a new studio there for eka, I wonder what influence the nature out there will have on the collection. My main aim for this winter is to get the collection a bit tighter and so I can get some sample packs out to sales agents to sell for me, I hate that part of the job and so many great people have offered to add eka to their brands that it would be stupid of me to pass them up for another year.

I do have one small concern though, I’m probably going to turn into Charlotte Gainsbourgh’s character in Antichrist, sorry Nils!

Renegade Craft Fair -Malmo needs this!

We seriously need something like this in Malmo, maybe I should think about curating one…first need to find some help!

I’m positively salivating at all the LOVELY things there, what amazingly creative people they must be, check out those bags and the skateboards too! click on the above images to go to the Renegade Blog and click on the ones below to zoom in and look at the goodies that were on sale!

Marius Stool Covers

My new ‘Homewares’ department is really shaping up this summer, we have a collection of cushions, mug cosies, tea cosies and I’ve developed some seat covers for the Marius Stools for sale for just £3.50 in IKEA right now.

I have put the link above so all you have to do is buy the colour you’d prefer, Turquoise, Pink, Black, White or Teal (this is called Blue on the ikea site…that’s not 1oo% true, much more like a teal colour, way nicer than blue!) and then go to my shop to buy your cover for £15) this is a removable sleeve that you can re-use on any other stool a similar size.

You can choose your own colours for the cover, I’ve made samples of colour ideas for the pink and teal stools, but the world is you oyster, let me know what you’d like to have and I’ll make that for you, a bespoke item for your home for less than £20 : )
