Not-for-profit Creative

Seems that most of the creative juices that have flowed out of me, over the last couple of months, have been in aid of tokens and gifts for my various friends that are or have got married over the summer.
Last night was no exception. I rushed home after a morning with fried eggs, chats with pals and a good 45 minutes (check me out!) swim, just in time to eat a big bowl of veggie chilli (thank you x) and make some MAP inspired Bride and Groom peg dolls to take with me to the Hag (hen & stag) party I walked through the lovely warm rain to get to.

Such a fun, quick and free (if you have all the bits at home) way to give a little token of affection!

Kolkata Fair

This month is the last month that I will be working with Kolkata Fair Trade, a small fair trade company based in Brighton.
Over the last year (and a bit!) I have met and worked with a great bunch of people both here in the UK and across the world in Kolkata, Northern India.

We have designed and produced a few really lovely products including: a stationary range with a women's vocational training NGO 'Karmyog' -

These are from the beautiful Elephant range - Look at the adorable elephant stamp on the back of the envelope!

And I can't wait to see the dresses that we have designed, being produced by the women's group 'Jeevika' (the picture at the top is of the girls there). They have now gone into sampling; beautiful embroidery and fantastic colours and fabrics... i can't wait to see the results!

I'm sad to go, but the next couple of months hold the next stage of my adventures! AND I will never forget those girls!
