Garland Love
We’ve had lots of international interest this Christmas for the little blog post below. It is so lovely to see our pics travelling around the world!
NOVEMBER 2010
We introduced our Little Lamb Garlands a few months ago now but with the festive season upon us they have really come into their own.
The elves have been very busy packing these lovelies into our glass jars. Speaking of elves I’ve been employing child labour. Before you get on the email and rightfully jump up and down, it is in the form of a certain 7 year old. She loves to pack garlands, she loves the pocket money, she loves helping out and like me she loves looking at each string as they go into the jar.
Being handmade they are all very unique and each string can be very different to the next. Some are full of bright punchy colours, others have more pastal tones. I packed one yesterday that was full of red and green and really looked very Christmassy. Sometimes the colour combinations are so beautiful I just don’t want to part with them. Rather than have a ‘one for me one to sell’ approach I’ve taken to photographing strands that I particularly love. I do have ‘my’ strand, they live next to desk. The hot pink, yellow and turquoise all in a row is what makes them mine. Wills has her strand that are draped over the pictures on her wall next to her bed. I’ve a friend with two – one set is a belt and the other adorns her walls. It is so nice to step into friends houses and see all the clever uses of them.
On the 1st of December we’ll put up the tree and festoon it with lovely garlands, I can’t wait to see how fantastic it will look!
