Dolland & Devaux

Dolland & Devaux is a gifting range that was released in Tesco over the Christmas period, and some items are still available to purchase online. It included all sorts of gifting items, like this mini sewing kit above, and toiletry bags, knitwear, stationery, kitchen and gardening gifts. Attached are some of my favourites from the range. I helped to design this range from the floral and knitwear patterns, through to product and packaging. It's really great to see the products finally come to life!

stylish stationery

I recently helped design a set of stylish type-based stationery for Portico Designs, bronze print on black, and leather products all to exclusively retail in Waterstones stores. Some of them can be bought online here. The whole collection can be found in stores now.

Dearly Beloved....

Our friends David and Anne got Married in August, and with artistic direction from Anne, I helped to design the wedding stationery towards their big day!

I was so pleased I could help put my skills to good use, and it was such a fun project! The wedding was in a theatre, so they went down a vintage theatrical theme in purple and red, with bold frames and fun typography. The bits I designed included table settings, invites, order of service, menus and even a poster in the entrance to the theatre itself!

Congrats to you both, it was such a wonderful day xxx

Word for Word

Print Pattern blog reviewed some type based stationery which I helped to design for WHSmiths through supplier Portico Designs in Bath. Here is a link to the write up with photos! This range looks great with elements in spot varnish, including products ranging from notebooks, organisers and photo albums to make up cases and tins, paper based and leather-look stationery. I think we all did an excellent job!

Print & Pattern 2

I have been lucky enough to be featured in the latest Print & Pattern book of the blog, published this October written by Marie Perkins. I received it in the post this morning and the double page spread shows a selection from a contemporary stationery and gifting range that I designed exclusively for UK publisher Waterstones while working for Portico Designs Ltd in Bath who design and supply various high street retailers. The book is currently for sale here.
