Fresh Sushi are the Fishes Fins

Last Summer, whilst roaming around a field at Bestival, and trying to decide what to eat, I met a lovely lady called Laura. We got chatting about the mexican skull brooch on my bag, and about the gorge Fresh Sushi yurt she was working at...


Anyway, almost a year has passed, and some strange sushi brooches were created, and I wasn't entirely sure whether these brooches worked. Then Miss Laura got in touch, and I had a bonkers brainwave. This was the girl to rock the sushi accessories!

So, a lovely platter of sushi has been stitched and stuffed, and sent all the way to Edinburgh...

And as she's such a groovy, lovely lady, I popped in a couple of Sushi surprises...

A fishy necklace:


And a super seafood-y head piece:


And today, Laura emailed to let me know they'd arrived. I'd been dying to post the photos on the blog all week, but didn't want to ruin her sushi surprise!

And here's the Queen of Sushi herself, rocking the fishy look:

T-shirts T-shirts T-shirts

A couple of weeks ago, on a crazy whim, I got a couple of T-shirts printed with Captain Fishcake, just to see what they looked like.

And this was the result...


I showed a few people, and everyone loved them. In fact, I sold one straight away to the handsome Mr Kemble, who put it on immediately, and did a monster pose for the camera...



So I decided to keep the other one for myself, wear it and see what everyone thought. Obviously I spilt food down it straight away, as I can't seem to wear anything white without getting it dirty immediately.

Anyway, thanks to all the great feedback, I've ordered a bunch of these T-shirts in Small, Medium and Large, and they are now available to buy online here for a mere £15.


By the way, they wash perfectly... and I got the food stains out of mine straightaway! Well done Mr Washing Machine.

Lovely Things to Make and Caravan Love

On my return from Brighton, I discovered in my absence, this amazing book had fallen through the letter box...


Written by my very talented and extremely hilarious friend, Eithne Farry...


And lo and behold, on page 134, was my guest star slot- How to make a Telly Bag Charm- Hoorah!


Eithne also wrote, 'Yeah! I Made it Myself', the book that taught me the joy of shearing elastic, and I'm pretty sure, from her latest, 'Lovely Things to Make for Girls of Slender Means' will stir up some other crafty excitement... at the moment I am planning a gigantic flower headband, and matching wrist corsage with the addition of some joke plastic flys...

And on another booky note, while I was away, I found this super duper fantastico book about Caravans...


I am now officially in love with caravans, and not sure how I can go on
living without one.
Surely it can only be a matter of time before I can get a caravan to use as a studio.

Until then, I will just salivate over the pictures in the book.


Well lush.
