Let’s get to it, then!
- Adorable interior design on Design*Sponge. I want to live in that house so badly!
- I added some new necklaces and brooches to the store this week, you should go and check them out, they’re proving popular already! Squeee!
This was a short one, let me know if you have any pretty things for me to look at for next week’s edition!

Last weekend we did our last fair/market of the season for FinestImaginary, it was held at the Whitworth Gallery in Manchester and organised by the Manchester craft mafia. It was deifnitely the best fair we’d taken part in this year, a great group of sellers and a constant stream of customers. Nice! It was held in a really bright, high roofed gallery room, too, which made all the difference.
The weekend didn’t go without a few odd occurrences, of course, on the Saturday I broke a filling on a soft mint (wtf is that about, a soft mint?! jesus) and on the Sunday a giant bird (a woodcock) flew into the window behind us at full force and perished. o.O Anyway, I took a few photos of the event. If you came along I hope you had a great time, and if you didn’t then you should definitely come next year!
There were more photos taken by a friend of mine who somehow got roped into being the official photographer for the show, even though he’d just dropped in to do some shopping. I’ll see if I can find out where they are :)

Aw, Bonbi Forest was one of the first stores to stock FinestImaginary items (over a year ago now! wow!). Earlier this month Bonbi’s owner, Lee May, announced that the Emporium as we know it would be closing it’s doors at the end of August. It’s all for a good reason, though, the Bonbi Forest brand is doing so well that there’s just not enough hours in the day for Lee May to dedicate to the Emporium whilst spending time on her own work. I wish Bonbi Forest the best of luck, and I’ll be sad to see the emporium go!
Head over to Bonbi Forest now to take advantage of a 15% discount offer, there are tonnes of fabulous items from some great artists and designers on there!

On the very EDGE of your seat? me too, me too.

Congratulations to those of you who won! You get to chose one of the face necklaces as your prize, I’ll be emailing you all this evening with the details. Sorry to those of you who lost out! Don’t worry, though, I’m going to have another contest next month for another new necklace design!

Friday we went out, I wore my new fringe and a new (yet to be released) finestimaginary EPIC necklace. I also took a chance to model the new Twinkie Chan mittens that arrived, cute huh? Alas, I did not wear these out, that would have been a bit strange seeing as it’s supposed to be the middle of summer. Whut? Anyway, you should go and check out all twinkie’s things, so pretty. Buy handmade! It’s good for your soul :)
