Accidentally filling my posts and postbox with much more unicorn content than I set out to, but very excited for the surprise delivery of the latest issue of The Amazing World of Unicorns...it's full of even more unicorny stuff...

This year has seen me taking a floral foray into wedding flowers, with three weddings and counting. With a mixture of venues and variety of colour palettes I've very much enjoyed making everything from bridal bouquets, Lychgates, flower crowns, button holes, table decor and home grown confetti. 

Craft Party has landed! Coming to CBBC, Sunday mornings at 9.30am, prepare to party through the themes with easy to make projects, costumes, games and food. 

I had the honour of hosting a flower crown making workshop for the most wonderful group of women at a Hen Party, with a varied skill level. Using fresh flowers and being able to work outdoors in the Cornish sunshine left everyone looking much wholesome than they felt...

Excited to announce my first publication of the year has hit the shelves in time for the holidays! In this quarterly mag I designed and made all the craft and food makes and I couldn't be prouder of issue 1.

The cover doesn't lie, it really is MAGICAL. 

 Mind. Blown. It's been a dream being back with Rubber Republic in Bristol, helping getting this little guy off the ground. Working with LadBaby and Send it to Space, Buzz was sent on a mission before being auctioned off on eBay to raise money for Together for Short Lives.

So excited to be working with Keshet International on the new CBBC art show, Craft Party! The show is presented by children, for children, with each episode a different themed children's party. The existing format has already wowed Israel, and this will be it's first series in the UK. In my role I'll be coming up with themed craft and food makes for each of the episodes and teaching our amazing cast how to make them. 

Pitching on a new title for Squishies, which is the most fitting work for the week I turn 30. 

January can be a funny old month, and while I spent a bit of time setting myself some goals for the year I couldn't have predicted the first email in my inbox - a commission to help create a quarterly craft magazine about unicorns aimed at children. Needless to say the study is now filled with glitter which will remain until the end of 2019. 

Since moving to Bristol earlier in the year I've been on the look out for the companies doing what I love, and found the very best in finding Rubber Republic. They're an independent film studio/creative agency who seem to have London clients and Bristol morals and are generally all round good people. I've been doing some fun freelancing with them, including a bit of production, bit of art department and bit of creative stuff. Their work can be found here: www.rubber...
