Pantone’s colour of the year 2012 – Tangerine Tango

Hmmm…Tangerine…very 50s…I think I like it…

Excuse the happy snaps quality of this shot, but loving the idea of using your jewellery for wrapping napkins in.

Thank you Abigail for such a lovely masterclass day full of top tips (& just a wee bit of snooping!)

Elvis and Kresse: Love ‘em!

Elvis & Kresse creates stunning life-style accessories by re-engineering seemingly useless wastes. The innovative and pioneering Fire-Hose range is made exclusively from genuine de-commissioned British fire brigade hoses which, after a distinguished career fighting fires and saving lives, were otherwise destined for landfill.

50% of profits from the fire-hose line are donated to the Fire Fighters Charity.
