Stylish touch to any table - the Liberty Print Shop can help



Browsing the Liberty London site I came across this rather lovely coaster created with Mirabelle Liberty print, stylish touch to any table. I particularly like the prints on this website (and of course the London shop) but alas it takes some searching on the site but should you like a browse here is the Liberty Print Shop.

Ceramic buttons created from the fabulous Victoria and Albert Museum collection


Inspiring my designs this morning, I stumbled upon these V&A buttons which feature V&A designs created exclusively for the V&A. Individual button price £1.75 (unfortunately you cannot pick the exact button you would like or order 5 of the same design). Perhaps it’s more creative to use five different buttons for a cardigan or as dress fastening.
