Currently Loving – Astrid Weigel

Well finally we have got a bit festive in our house and managed to sort out a tree, bring down the decorations from the loft and spend a festive few hours decorating. I have been saving up a a little purchase I made in autumn, from the  Great Northern Contermporary Craft Fair.

I was delighted to come across the enchanting stall of Astrid Weigel. I fell in love with her graphic prints, and treated myself to this table runner, destined for the kitchen table.

I was even more delighted to find that she was featured in Homes and Antiques Magazine December issue. If you get a chance do pop over to her website.

So little salt bunny pot has pride of place on the runner, with a festive star coaster. (Mrs J thinks it looks like a poinsettia flower, brilliant!).

I also bought this rather fine stag very cheaply which I thought would make a nice graphic match.  This is where the taste and style ends in the decorations.

Tomorrow I will share with you the hilarious on-set of kitsch, random and penguin infused decorating … well Christmas is about sharing and love, and boy there is much love for penguins in our house.
