Should be in the A-Team or something… knitted glocks, jackhammers… they’d never be in a corner if they recruited Theresa. As long as they had yarn of course.
Fantastic work on her own site here, love the lace tattoos too.
Thanks to Helen for the link!

I was never sure about Bromptons, but something clicked recently… they’re so goddam useful. I need one.
But not this one, as I’m sure you’ll agree, it’s a beaut, but it’s also on the bay with a £1500 buy it now.

Which I have to say is disgraceful, pure plagiarism…
I found this site fascinating, you thought we wouldn’t notice

As you may recall, or not, if you’ve never looked at my blog before, I’m attempting to keep myself busy at weekends.
Anyway, one of the methods employed, has been dragging my (frequently lazy) butt to exhibitions. In fact, I renewed my design museum membership to make sure I do. Currently showing is the ‘Less is more’ show documenting the works of legendary product designer (and more) Dieter Rams.
I have to say the exhibition is fantastic, if just for it’s muted, calm tones, with the two shots on here being one of the very few splashes of colour throughout.

I won’t bang on any more, there are thousands of articles about the legend that is Rams, especially on his influence on apple design, but I will say, go see.

p.s. this should in fact be #3 as I owe #2 to Mr. Spender and his lovely lady. A big thanks for a fantastic burns night. But… ummm… I forgot and didn’t any pics…
