They draw and travel...

Since blogging about the website 'They draw and cook' back in March, it's become one of the most popular  posts on my blog, so.........

I thought I'd do a little post on the launch of their new website 'They draw and travel'. It's ssoooooo good, it doesn't get any better does it, firstly celebrating food and design, and now travel and fabulous design... love it! 

Have a looksie here.

Below are a few of my favourites, but there are so many amazing designs over there, it's worth a pop on over!

Sorrento, Italy...

Wow... there are some absolutely gorgeous photographs of Italy floating around Pinterest at the moment, all of which take me back to a beautiful honeymoon the hubby and I spent in Sorrento back in 2007, amazing...

We managed to squeeze in visits to Amalfi, Ravello, Capri,Pompeii and many more. Here's a little sneak peek...

If you're considering a holiday anytime soon, I would highly recommend it x

Well my little blogging friends...I'm back from a fabulous week in New York and the Surtex show!

It was a busy few days and a great experience to be part of such a big surface pattern show.

There was sooo much amazing design and illustration talent on display it was unbelievable, and it was fantastic to be able to meet some of the people whose work I have admired for such a long time, I can now put faces to all of those names! I even got chance to have a looksie around the Stationery show, and again, lots of loveliness to be seen...

(I'm now in love with anything letterpress related after seeing the stands of eggpress, hammerpress and fugu fugu press...)

I had a great time and our Paper and Cloth stand looked fabulous!!!!

For those who made it to the show, I hope you had a great few days filled of inspiration and excitement.

Back soon!

Off to New York tomorrow for Surtex (yay!) so I'll be back very soon.
For those of you going...enjoy!
Be sure to see the Paper and Cloth portfolio at booth 250, it's fabulous!
You can also follow the studios whereabouts and goings on, on our sparkly blog

Memories of the Big Apple...

Aah...New York New York...

(When will I see you again...?)

(plus, it gives me a chance to play with my new toy, Lo-Fi retro camera)

Marrakech Express

This time last year the boy and I were on our way to Marrakech. It was only for a few days but it was amazing! Can't wait to go back...

New love for 2011!

I've recently discovered (and fell in love with) the new online Red magazine site. It's a lovely website full of new trends in fashion and lifestyle and has yummy recipes to try too, which I'll definetley be doing very soon, yum! There's also a fab bit on travel and some gorgeous styling in the photographs. 

Happy days...
