Happy Mess
































I think tidying up can be overrated. I've occasionally over tidied my studio and then felt it's lost some creativity. I need to see stuff lying around because therein lie the solutions. That's my excuse anyway!

Parcel of Goodies


















Otis surveys just some of the lovely old tins my friend and dealer from Found in Tokyo sent me.
Look who made himself a heavenly bed with all the bubble wrap too.
They're European but I've never seen these hexagonal moulds before and I have the whole set of sizes here. They have the proportions of a big nut without a bolt. They're all beautifully tarnished and if you remember my post about the home workshop books - some of these look hand soldered. I have to find time (how?) to make some special new lamps (not cakes!) with these.
