A Colour Book Cabin for Colour My Monday

That's nice, eh?

I suppose I could add another one for good measure.

That's better, it's definitely starting to look more cheerful round here.

Now, what about stringing five paper cabins together, that would look really pretty.

I could even offer you one of Chris Theiss's gorgeous paper garlands made from vintage books as a giveaway prize couldn't I? What do you say? Would you like to win of these beauties to decorate your window or hang up in your home? Ah, yes, I thought so.

 

 

Chris Theiss, the maker of these recycled paper cabin garlands, is the Director of Hutch Studio,  a busy working space and "a home for ideas to grow". I like that quote. Chris and his partners are bursting with fun and interesting ideas, they organise whirligig workshops, design make yourself kits, create soft toys and so much more. If you're looking for inspiration and original creations, Hutch Studio is definitely the place to go.

 

Here's how you can win a Hutch Studio Paper Cabin Garland made by Chris Theiss:

 

1) Become a Hutch Studio Blog, Facebook or Twitter follower.

2) Leave a comment below.

3) If you spread the word via Twitter, Facebook, Blogging or any other means  you will get two names in the hat.

The giveaway is open to international readers and will run until 18pm Sunday 20th February, CET.

I will announce the winner the same Sunday evening.

Good luck!

The Light of Hutch

So simply beautiful, and everything I love,

Pendant-style light made comprised of thirty-three vintage paper houses made from 1950's cook book pages

$200 from Hutch Studio

Definitely My Image of The Day!

Little Cabins

These little cabins by Krys Kirkpatrick from Hutch Studio are some of the nicest Christmas decorations I have ever seen.

Made from a few old children's books (Mother Goose and a couple of Peter Rabbit books from the 1940's), some can be illuminated by a tea light and others have been strung together to make a garland or hanging strand mobile. 

If you manage to buy one (quick, they're selling fast), I'm sure you'll be tempted to keep it on display all year round. Handmade, repurposed and fun, what a lovely, smart addition to your Christmas tree, child's room, nursery or studio space (c'mon, I know you're all big kids at heart!)

Yes - Reuse, Reduce, Recycle!
