Extra Curricular Activities

"What the jiggins is this?" you ask

"I don't know. They made me do it" I reply.

Thats what you get if you ask someone from Lush Designs to illustrate an article in an American magazine about investment.

Not in the least bit Boaring

We went to a studio sale last night in a faraway place called Ladbroke Grove and met Joseph Paxton who is a talented London-based Welsh sculptor. Here he is looking suitably rugged-yet-sensitive as is the way of sculptors. We at Lush Designs are lurcher lovers - see how dogtastically Joe has captured the lurcher on his left.

As you can see here, he has something else in common with us here at Lush Designs

He too is a wild pig fan.

I think his pig is a bit wilder than ours though...

Also available as a tea towel, cushion, bag and bone china mug ...

Prét â Acheter

Well, the NEW Lush Designs shop at 8 College approach in Greenwich is up and running.

To tell you the truth we're absolutely ZORSTED. Not so much so that we can't sell you a satanic tea-towel.

This Hell's Kitchen tea towel would make an excellent halloween gift for a maiden aunt.

Old shop - new shop

Here's our olde shoppe.

Mighty purty, huh?

And here's our NEW shop. Find us at 8 College approach, Greenwich as of next week.
These walls are painted a colour called "pigeon"; which is entirely appropriate given the prevalence locally of this avian vermin.

Needs a bit of work.

CUSHION PREVIEW

Is your bum tired of the same old cushion?
Is your settee too cornery?
Have you got a stain on your armchair?

Solve these and almost all other problems with a cat cushion.

Its generously proportioned and in a tasteful shade of blue-grey
Available from www.lushlampshades.co.uk from October 17th

Gay Paris - Maison & Objet

Was ever there anything so glamorous and elegant as Paris?

Why, here is one of us (Marie) at Maison et Objet,

Quel sophistication.

See the tasteful 'objets' she found within this fabulous emporium of commerce.

But once again, that pushy madam Helen Minns managed to out-do us. It was she who got in with the in-crowd and secured a private audience with this exciting snowman - we couldn't get a look-in.

Chic, non?

Four of your five-a-day, vegetable napkins

Man, Its been LOOOONG since we blogged.

Thats the trouble with being busy and important.

Never mind - here's a lovely new Lush Designs product that would be a suitable accompaniment for any 'Master-Chef-The-Professionals' type meal, (they were cooking duck and cherries and REALLY nice-looking spuds tonight on BBC2)

Lovely cotton napkins!

Hey, these would even posh up Fray Bentos steak and kidney pie and processed peas.

Think what a lovely self-gifted Christmas present they would make. Available from www.lushlampshades.com later this month.
