Flickr Friday

Hello creative friends,

I wanted to let you know that we have a new and exciting Flickr account! We will be adding new photo's that aren't on the website or Blog later. Each Friday I will be adding photo's from Flickr that I've found and love.

Here's a few we added.

Please add us as a friend if you're also on Flickr, I'd really really like to see what you create with Robson & Mason things too!

Made in the shade.

It's happening again,
Made in the shade is back for Christmas! Visit their site for details and directions.

This is what the website says:

"The aptly named, ‘Made In The Shade’ market (a slang phrase, popular in the 1950s and synonymous with guaranteed success, or a truly swell situation) launched in Glasgow in May 2008. Having received a wonderfully warm welcome from Glasgow’s discerning vintage shoppers and handmade lovers, the event currently takes place seasonally at The Lighthouse, Scotland’s Centre for Architecture, Design and the City.

Bringing the crème of the city’s independent and creative crop together, the vision of ‘Made In The Shade’ is to showcase new design talent and the work of creative businesses with a view to encouraging customers to relish in the exclusivity of the handmade and vintage one-of.  Made In The Shade urges shoppers to support  businesses who are working hard to carve out creative identities amidst a mountain of mass-produced items and high street chains."

Exciting!!!!

Find: Linen & Roses.

We are friends with the lovely people at Folksy and I would encourage anyone who loves handmaking, or buying handmade products to pay a little visit to them.

I'm going to try and feature makers from Folksy regulally as I think the standard of work on there site is inspiring.

Today I'd like to feature:

Linen and Roses.

They also have a shop on Folksy too, which can be found here.

Stocking can be found here

I would also like to let you know about a brilliant blog that I am addicted to reading, I am addicted and rather in awe of the creativity this lady has. Take a look here at Little Cotton Rabbits.
Check out her Christmas cards also they're devine!

Christmas Print Ribbon.

Season's greetings friends, I hope you are all enjoying the cold weather, especially the snow if you're lucky enough to have some.

I just wanted to share these printed ribbons with you. They're all for sale in our Store right now.

I would love to see how you use them, and will post all pictures on my Blog if you email them to me.

Isn't the fabric under the parcels the cutest? It's a 1950's print of Children decorating a tree. I adore it, and soon I will be stitching in into stockings for Christmas- to hang up and wait for Santa Claus.

I will be posting a 'Make your own Decorations' 'Make your own Stocking' on the blog soon.
