Aprons at Heath Ceramics
I’ve just sent off aprons, designed and made by Skinny laMinx, to Heath Ceramics in California. They’re about to open their new store in Los Angeles, and their staff will be wearing these aprons! I’m really delighted about this, and hope that I’ll manage a visit to Heath Ceramics next year some time.
Shipping Special
For the month of November, I’ve got low, low shipping rates for International buyers in my Etsy shop. So a tea towel that did cost $5.50 to send, now only costs $1.50!

New transfer designs
They’re brand new, and nothing’s even been fired yet, but I have new ceramic transfers that I’m putting onto mugs. Great fun, and an exciting new palette. A couple of sneak peek pics below:
LAVA: new teatowel design
I have a new teatowel design for sale in my Etsy shop/). It’s called LAVA and is inspired by the shapes and designs on mid-century West German ceramics.
Plates at O.live
O.live in Kloof Street is stocking my Mountain Garden dinner service. There are only five plates and five sideplates. Each one is hand made by Tessa Gawith, with transfers applied by me. See more pics at my Flickr page

Now stocking Skinny laMinx, H is for Home and also RubyRoost.

I’m thrilled that my work is included in the brand new Signs & Symbols book from Rotovision.
Nest exhibition
An exhibition called NEST opens on 2 June at Curious, Whetstone & Frankley, in Observatory, Cape Town. I’ll be showing new papercuts as well as ceramics transfers on bowls and mugs.
Heath Ceramics bag
Earlier in the year, I did a design for venerable ceramics company Heath Ceramics in Sausalito, California. The design has been printed onto tote bags, and are apparently selling like hot cakes! I was delighted to get one in the post recently.
In Oprah Home
I was lucky enough to have one of my teatowels making it into a feature in the Oprah at Home magazine.
Rooms on View
Using ceramics transfers, I recently made a dinner service called Mountain Garden for South Africa House at Rooms on View in Johannesburg.
