Mister Finch's Adventures

Fairy tales made from textile - this is the world of whimsical curiosities that are measured, cut and sewn from vintage fabrics, old stained aprons, dusty curtains and trims.  Realistically and  ingenuously conceptualized, Mister Finch's objects inspired by nature are mysterious and a bit creepy.  His creatures tell a story, they evoke wonderment and inspire the collector. Mister Finch resides in Yorkshire and with no formal training his works of art sell out on Etsy very quickly.  Welcome to Mister Finch's adventures...    

Functional + Artistic + Unexpected

The works of Harriet Anstruther Studio of London.  Stylish. Witty. Surprising.

Modern Day Downton Abbey

Set in 18 acres in the heart of Somerset, England a modern day Downton Abbey called Babington House is everything I need right now for a holiday.  This oasis of a hotel is a two and a half hour drive from London.  While retreating at Babington you can spoil yourself by relaxing in the spa, experience their Cinema, brush up on you tennis, or perhaps cricket pitch, croquet or a walk around the lake.  There is also a charming church which is shown in the second to last image.  Check it out here. Enjoy!
