Going Freelance

At the end of this week I leave my fabulous job at Storey Gallery to begin an exciting, but terrifying, freelance career. The chairs from my last exhibition have left the building and my desk draws are empty.

I have been with Storey Gallery for six years now, and although it is intended that I will return occasionally on a freelance basis, it feels like the end of an era. I have a few plans up my sleeve, which I will reveal as an when its appropriate, but the next few weeks will involve a bit of down time and then lots and lots of meetings.

Whilst waiting for DVD's to burn I found these lovely things on Etsy, in the shop Udaskids. They have some amazing dungarees in this shop, shame Smallest is now too big for them all.

These are also fabulous.

An obsession

I think I am becoming a little bit obsessed by Robin and Lucienne Day. I have blogged about Robin's work a lot recently, now its Lucienne's turn. I am enthralled and inspired by her beautiful patterns, and the lady herself. This is a great book, we have it in the gallery at the moment and I keep popping back to read through it.

Super Iconic Chairs

Here are some images of the exhibition I have been working on lately. 'A Century of Chairs' includes over 50 of the most iconic chairs from the past century... my favourite bit, as you can well imagine, is the small area of design for children.

The chairs are all on loan from the Design Museum in London. What a delightful organisation to work with. It's open until 7 April, so there is lots of time to catch it before all these lovely things head back into storage :)
