Slots -Tim Miller

I found these great chairs – StretchOut – designed by Tim Miller who is Senior Lecturer in Industrial Design at Victoria University in New Zealand.

I have been reading about wet paper folding, now I am inspired to combine paper cutting and wet-folding and see what comes of it.

Rosemary Wakelin – Pottery

 

My brother sent me this photograph of a little hand-painted ceramic dish our mother made maybe 50 years ago. She and our father both made several dishes in pottery and both signed them with their common monogrammed initials RW , so I’m not entirely sure whose this is but my gut reaction is that it was my mother. It is a perfect example of hand-decorated studio pottery from the ’50s.
