London...

All about my short but sweet WORK trip last week... on 24 hour duty (32 students and a Julie) ~ but of a cultural and creative nature, tour guide extraordinaire (mmm)...


Tuesday = The V&A and a quick half hour running around the Natural History Museum

Wednesday = Liberty's, Islington, Covent Garden and the Seven Dials, researching the independent, vintage shops and looking at designer maker products, packaging and branding; not shopping (honest)
 
Thursday morning = Spitalfields Antiques & Bric-a-Brac market, researching for Interiors project.

Looking forward to going back for New Designers at the end of June and a little lovely Brick Lane weekend slipped in between...

    1. It was absolutely FREEZING! The pen bits and the old stencil kit (complete with brushes in a big old tin) were things I bought... and I had to have a massive 3D printed ring from 'DO' in Covent Garden... then the usual old boxes of paper clips, pins and hole reinforcers from Spitalfields oh and a tiny tiny victorian leather purse for £3 because I've been lusting after someone elses for a while!!!
