Hey - Fiddle Diddle...


I ordered 2 Fiddle Leaf Figs trees last week.

AND - If you live in the UK as I do! You'll know how difficult it is to track them down as nobody sells them!

Mine have made there way over from Holland and have just landed in London.

SO - FLUFFING excited!!!

Scented Candles...


I'm also working with another one of our ( TALENTED ) neighbours, Victoria who also lives around the corner makes the most AMAZING range of handmade scented soya wax candles.

I'm currently working with Victoria on our very own exclusive range of candles.

Our range of handmade scented soya wax candles will also be available soon @ www.47parkavenue.co.uk 



Cushions...


Ive been on the hunt for some great geometric cushions for some time now and couldn't believe my luck when I stumbled upon Gillian who lives around the corner, Gillian makes traditional quilts and cushions to order.


I contacted Gillian to see if I could use her traditional quilt making skills to make some black and white geometric cushions with a contrasting trim.


After I overload Gillian's inbox with visual ref of the kind of thing I was looking for...Gillian give in to my requests and has just dropped off these!!! 

They're even better than I could have imagined...SO - Happy with the way they have turned out!!! 

We also have 2 other designs on the way which will be apart of this range + plans of a floral range using the same designs.


Gillian's hand made quilted cushions will be available online soon @ www.47parkavenue.co.uk

We've just picked up another 2 other pieces of artwork. Both pieces are by artists very local to the area.


I LOVE this piece SO much...I contacted the artist and arranged a meet so - that I could inform her of what we are doing here at www.47parkavenue.co.uk 


Helen's artwork will be available to buy online @ www.47parkavenue.co.uk 



Helen cuts and folds paper into different size bufferfly's...for a piece this size that process takes 3 full days, Helen then stitches with a needle and thread each butterfly onto paper!

Helen is in the process of making 2 pieces for the site that measure 100cmx100cm! 

 I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE END RESULTS! SO - EXCITED!
