pick a pug.


Starting points. We decided on our logo finally, a pug. I love pugs, they are so cute. I printed up some different samples ideas. Which one do you like the best? Personally I like the dark purple pug on the pink background. hmm...... 
The white one is puff binder which did not work out quite how I had hoped but I did this because it feels like fur therefore very appropriate for our little puggy.

EDIE&westwood.

EDIE&westwood. The name on everyones lips. Well, not really, but hopefully at some point in the future it will be. Jewellery and textiles become one to create a fantastic buisness idea. So far we have a twitter account and a blog.

The plan is to open a small independant buisness that sells are own work alongside other artists work. We want to dream big but I think opening a shop at this moment in time is out of the question so first we plan to start a website first.

Watch this space to follow a buisness plan from the beginning, watch it grow into something beautiful.

nikki mcwilliams.


Biscuits is the word of the day. A cup of good strong tea and a biscuit to dunk solves everything. Traditional and comforting. Today I went to a lecture and Nikki McWilliams was speaking. I loved her work and really wanted to share it. Her work is doing so well, which is no surprise as the designs are so quirky and cool. What I find fascinating is that she did her degree in fine art and yet is such a successful textile designer. It makes me have hope. Can't find a job? You create one and not only that but one that you love.

Biscuit anyone?
