edinburgh craftiness

i went to edinburgh for a long weekend to stay with lovely family & check out the fringe festi. we did a lot of laughing & drank buckets of pear cider. luckily for me & not so lucky for jb, the fringe co-incided with the craft, art & design fair, which i dragged him round. one of the stalls was selling prints by a little company called owl & lion who have a studio in the grassmarket area of the city. i just couldn't let these two go...

this one is called bears do say sorry

this one is called , homesick

they are by an illustrator called parko polo & you can find out more about him here: http://www.parkopolo.eu/

i am going to wait until we move home to hang them but i want them side by side somewhere; i really heart the colours.


i spied lots of other crafty-nice-ness but didn't always have my camera ready. i did however snap up these huge paper-cut-installations which i thought were very unusal & quite impressive:



bye for now xxx
