It's Our Birthday! Today!!

Chelsea Flower Show

...not long now! If you are lucky enough to have bought tickets for the Chelsea Flower Show already we look forward to seeing you at Rob's retreat.

But if you've missed out you may be lucky enough to console yourself with one of these beautiful hand printed muslin flyers that we have been giving out to customers visiting Ryantown - just a few left now.

Starry Sky Cushions

Rob has added this gorgeous Starry Sky design to the growing selection of cushions available in the shop. Hand screen printed in the studio in three lovely colourways - I think they are my favourites ( and I think I say that every time we have something new - but it's SO hard not to love these things!! ).

Chelsea Flower Show

I can't wait for this...

Rob is designing an Artisan Retreat which you will be able to visit at this year's Chelsea Flower Show.

I think these cards look amazing all together - this years St Patrick's Day card on the right and two from previous years.

And Another Brand New...

 

... Tile - In Ryantown today.

New Tiles

Every week we have something new in the shop - anything from a hand printed card in a new colourway to an limited edition of signed jugs. Last week we had a few of these beautiful new tiles.

St Patrick's Day Cards

Any of you that have seen the latest issue of SPQR will have read the story behind the St Patrick's Day cards we have in the shop in March each year.

We will have a very limited amount of previous years St Patrick's Day cards including this one from 2011 as well as a new one for 2013 in the shop this coming weekend - just in time for St Patrick's Day on March 17th

Beautifully hand printed in very small runs and quite rightly treasured by those who buy one each year.

Mothering Sunday

Our beautiful cards,  hand printed in the studio and each one signed by Rob, flew out of the shop last weekend. Luckily we will have a few more for the coming weekend so there's still time to bring a bit more love into a loved one's life.

Mothers Day Card

Of course it goes without saying that Mothers should be showered with love all year round - and with beautiful things as often as physically possible - and a day off from time to time - and cups of tea in bed - and flowers of course - lots of flowers.

So we're making it easy for you - this beautiful new card in Ryantown AND the flower market and lots of tea and cake opportunities in one street - how perfect is that.

This limited two colour hand screenprinted card, signed by Rob - and a hand printed envelope will be available in the shop this weekend and costs £12.

Go on - make your mum cry - for all the right reasons.

Brand New Totes

Also new in Ryantown this weekend - brand new tote bags - so new in fact that I only have these great work - in - progress photographs to show you at the moment...!

There is no such thing as free time
There is no such thing as work time
There is no such thing as play time
There is no such thing as down time
There is no such thing as spare time
There is no such thing as quality time
There is no such thing as the right time
There is no such thing as the wrong time

There is only time.

The rarest and most precious gift I can give you seems to be the one thing I never have enough to spare, but I promise to give you as much as I have and will make even more + more to give you. Can these seconds and minutes slowly grow into hours and days and perhaps weeks, months and years? In the name of St. Valentine can you be mine? 14th February 2013.

Sooty

I love this cat! Sooty actually lives in a shop further along the road but feels at home in all of them I think.... As you can see!!

Cake of the Weekend

I know the weekend isn't over yet - but here's a picture of the delicious cake that one of our most regular customers brought in today as a gift - to us!!

We really do have the kindest customers - thank you Adriana!

Happy New Year!

Ryantown was open today and lovely it was too. Our first three customers of the New Year were each given a personalised gift from Rob, as a thank you and to welcome in the New Year!

Apologies for the terrible quality of the photos of photos - i must need new glasses - but the little instant polaroids that Steve, Becky, Mick and Sinead took away with them were a little clearer, honestly.

We are really looking forward to the year ahead, our 5th year in Columbia Road!!!
