Pulse London 2014

Yesterday I went to Pulse London, a famous trade show where you can find home products, gifts, fashion and accessories. It was inspiring! I discovered beautiful things made by skilled designers. The stands were lovely decorated, every detail was carefully planned and the people were very friendly. I didn't´t take pictures, but I grabbed some business cards and after finding their details and pictures over the web, I decided to write a little post about the treasures I found.

1. The Black Rabbit: cute knitted products for the home and gifts. I fell in love specially with the little lapin.

2. Paleolochic: beautiful textile creations, relaxing and minimalist. Handmade in Mallorca, Spain.

3. Debbie Barber: I really love pottery and ceramic and the pieces that this designer makes are simple fantastic! I would love to have some of them decorating any corner of my house. 

4. Hippstory: a  Swede designer. These geometric creations are wonderful! I really like the colors she chose for them. 

5. Wolfram Lohr: handmade leather products created in England. They have a very interesting story about how they started. The pictures show how pretty they are!

6.  Just Trade: Lovely fair trade jewelry. My favorites were the geometric ones. In the show you can appreciate pieces they don´t have in their online shop. They are so beautiful! 

7. Boop design: cute and delicate porcelain and ceramic creations, featuring hand drawn illustrations. Gorgeous!

8. Samantha Holmes: alpaca clothing. They probably are very cozy and warm!  

I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I liked visiting the show. 

Renegade Craft Fair London

About a week ago I visited The Renegade Craft Fair London.

There were so beautiful things there.

I bought some little prints from different artists. They are so beautiful. From left to right: Charlotte Valance, Hello Paper Moon and Mister Peebles.

And when I was ready to leave the show, I found a maker who had some incredible bags and I fell in love with them immediately. Her name is Karen Meyers. All her bags are made from recycle materials, which for me has great value. They are colorful and you can see that she takes care of all the details. It was very difficult to choose one, but finally I bought a little and practical one. I just love it!

When I got home I found her website and blog. She just moved from USA to a little town in England with her husband and son. And it is great to read her story in her blog.

I love this, full of color. I borrowed the image from her Etsy Shop.

So, if you love stories as much as I do and bags, you now know where you can find both.
