I gave up writing this blog just before I finally moved back to Somerset. After being busy with work for the last year and a half I'm ready to take it up again. It is a new year after all.
So without further ado I'd like to get back into posting about things I've found that I love. For the last few months I've been staring at a postcard on my bedside table that I picked up at a Vintage Fair in Somerton. It's by artist and jeweller Racheal Eardley. She has a beautiful naive handwriting. I particularly like the jewellery that she makes out of defunct coins, they are such an original idea.

I am also a big fan of her embroidery. Taking already detailed pieces of textile such as a doily or a handkerchief and adding her own graphic designs of everyday items results in a piece of work that is nostalgic and modern at the same time.

Racheal Eardley's website and online shop is very lovely so I suggest taking a look. Her blog will keep you up to date with up and coming fairs and exhibitions.
