i have & i want
After being in London for only five days, I stumbled across a design market Artsmart. Couldn't believe my luck! I was proud of myself - not going crazy and buying everything in sight.
However I did support the local designers by purchasing a ceramic tooth necklace from Lovely Mon Story. I was going to purchase the ceramic camera, but the tooth has more meaning to me, as I have such bad luck with my teeth, now I have one spare just in case.
I also purchased a cute heart tote by Heart Zeena which I can't wait to use to carry my laptop. She also does badges, sticky tapes, pin cushions, cushions and cards. Each design is as lovely as the next and I heart them all!
Ralli design are a brother sister duo who have designed beautiful earthenware ceramics, which makes them light and easy to hold. Shuffle is the design solution that drew me to their stand. It's a stackable desk storage system which comes in both black and white. The Fika tea-set doedn't disappoint with another clever stacking storage design. The cups are designed to it in the palm of your hand, which I love because there may not always be a little side-table around when you are enjoying a steamy cup of tea or coffee. I think the guy behind the stand was disappointed when I didn't purchase a set. But I currently don't have a permanent residence so I couldn't possibly buy a set of ceramics. I would be asking for trouble.
I was so impressed by the design market, I will post more interesting finds in days to come...

perched
Check out these cute pieces by Perch! I love these cute candles, as they can be so hard to find. And are these not the coolest salt and pepper shakers in the world? I think yes! All of the ceramics at Perch! are designed by Amy Adams and are handmade in Brooklyn, New York.

one is just enough
Cupcakes make my mouth water... i think of all the yummy flavours and the tasty frosting. My personal fav (which i made up myself... although I'm sure others have done before me) is coconut flavored cake with rose-water icing with coconut flakes atop. Jeanette Zeis Ceramics want to make our cupcake (or other sweet treats) a lot sweeter with different colours, patterns and sizes to suite your taste.

After the long weekend I decided to refresh myself by cleaning up, washing and buying fresh flowers. But of course you need something as beautiful as the flowers themselves to hold them. These vessels by Jo Davies fall nicely into this category and have fallen from the heavens. You should take a peek at some of her lighting designs, shining a heavenly light from London.

have you met miss jones?
I promised I would... so I did. Have you seen these gorgeous bone china pieces by Have You Met Miss Jones? I have... and I love! This Sydney based company has an extensive range of products, from birdcages to recycled glass and metal lacework to bone china. The sneakers make me want to have a sneaky shop at their online store...
So, so many amazing things... please, please, please take a look!

what not to expect

| Flashlight Lamps . Ceramic Camera Porcelain Detergent Bottle . Ceramic Trophy |
I love ceramic things that represent an every day object. Things that you may not expect to be so pretty, suddenly have a new life and meaning. I don't think I've ever seen a torch look so beautiful. I must admit I only have one sports trophy at home, and it doesn't look anything like this... if it did I would fill it to the brim with fresh flowers! All of these cleaver pieces are via the Curiosity Shoppe. I will try and find some Australian ceramic creations soon. But for now I couldn't pass up sharing these gorgeous pieces.
