Lasso the Moon

"Upwardly Mobile" shadow box by Michele Chivers

I've got the feeling that everyone's a bit down in the dumps in the Northern hemisphere - Christmas is over, you're all spent up, it's cold and yes, the snow is turning to slush... So, I thought I'd kick off today with some nice fresh, uplifting finds from a wonderful online gift shop called "Lasso The Moon" (love the name!).
I can honestly say that it's been a while since I came across an address like this - I want to buy the entire shop! Founded by Laura Dunkley, Lasso The Moon offers an exciting collection of hand-picked gifts and accessories from some of the finest established and up-and-coming designers and makers in the United Kingdom. Lots of new names, ideas and inspiration - take a look for yourself

Caravan notebook, Yorkshire wool base with vintage fabric appliqué by Jane Lindsey

Lavender and Chamomile baby balm by Suzanne Orford

Hand-crafted tank tops in machine-washable merino wool by Tank Designs

100% mohair bunny filled with lavender by Nicky Fraser

Hand embroidered "Flowers" card by Sarah Dodd

Hand painted wooden lizard decoration by Anna Hull

Pack of 8 postcards by Becky Peabody (Flowers)

"Beautiful Day" tea towel by Mary Fellows

Tooth fairy envelope (girl) by Elizabeth Adams

Booty and Body gift set, Retro Rocket Angels, by Nicola Rumsey


I've already found some stylish Valentine's Day stationery

"Back Together" card by Becky Found

and a couple of Easter presents (have to be inventive with dairy-free diets...) - Miles and Savannah will love Anna Hull's "Mechanic" and "Tea Party" stencil kits, including 12 coloured pencils, in a jute drawstring bag!

And what better way of putting a spring in your step and a smile on your face than waking up to one of Cath Deeson's linocuts?



Hope you're feeling better!

Love it!


I was admiring Virginia Johnson's (of Roddy&Ginger fame) chalkboard wall the other day over at OpenHouse. I thought it might work well in our kitchen too, we'll have to see...

Then I came across this idea over at Tea for Joy, originally found via Ideal Home's blog HomeShoppingSpy


This chalkboard calendar looks great! If you're interested in having a go at home, look here.
