Walking through the streets of London three weeks ago, I discovered these lovely creations from Katherine Morling in the shop window of Chelsea Textiles. The artist creates still lives of everyday objects in a kind of 3 dimensional drawings that are filled with stories.

London is always an eye candy or me. During every trip, I am gathering so many impressions and even the smallest detail grabs my interest. I would like to invite you to experience my latest daytrip through these little snapshots. And there is even a little surprise: the one who discovers most of the places shown in my photo collage will win a little Xmas gift. So, let’s rack your brains {deadline will be next Sunday} !

And after Paris another pop-up event, this time in London. During my daytrip yesterday, I discovered a nice Xmas pop-up store in Hampstead selling wonderful handicrafts from local artists. Unique home style pieces from Rachel Dormor and Maud and Mabel sit beautifully with contemporary garments and antique textiles by Livingstone Studio and paintings from Jo Oakley. The Christmas pop-up event is hosted by Oak Studio and takes place until Sunday.
Christmas pop-up event at Oak Studio, 8 Perrins Court, Hampstead NW3 IQS
Opening hours: Thu 22nd & Fri 23rd November 10am-8pm, Sat 24th & Sun 25th November 10am-6pm

British designer Lee Broom has entirely transformed his East London studio into the Crystal Bulb Shop for the latest London Design Festival – a general store complete with sawdust floor, mahogany counter and a shopkeeper. Two hundred of the bulbs are presented in crates, cabinets, weighing scales and jars, as well as hanging from the ceiling and reflected in mirrors.

… in Bridstow, UK, today, I’d go to the Tin Tabernacle Tearoom at the wonderful shop of Baileys Home and Garden where I certainly spent lots of money before sipping a cup of tea.
