Making Your Spring - focus on our makers
Social Media Series 25 February - 28 May - Instagram @n10creatives Over the coming weeks as we ease out of lockdown we'll be featuring each member of Muswell Hill Creatives. All independent makers based in Muswell Hill & surrounding areas who make beautiful things using great skill and craftsmanship. We're hoping to be back out in St James Square at the beginning of May but in the meantime, we're here to provide inspiration for Mother's Day, Birthday and special occasion gifts or just something to perk up your home. Let's face it, we've all been spending long enough in them! We'll be kicking off this Thursday with a focus on Jenny at Crouch End Candles. On Friday 26 February at 11am, Rachael, the founder of Muswell Hill Creatives will be chatting to Jenny live on Instagram so do join us then! Look out for features, discounts, giveaways and more live chats over the coming weeks. |

Autumn 2016: A collaboration between Rob Jones of Romor Designs and Isabella Lepri Ceramics all started at the Fringe Pop Up Shop in June when Rob and Isabella had their work on display together. Rachael, MHC's founder, could see an instant synergy between their products and suggested that a ceramic lamp base would work beautifully with one of Rob's Shibori lampshades. After time away on distant shores over the Summer, Isabella returned in September and set to work with Rob to create a range of lamp bases which complement, or indeed appealingly contradict, with the patterns and styles Rob creates using traditional Shibori techniques. The lamps come in a range of sizes and prices start from £300. We hope you love them as much as we do.
The lighting collaboration was launched at MADE London and showcased soon after at the Colour Saturation Pop Up at Craft Central in Autumn 2016. |
