Ice cream colours, duck-egg blue birdies, white cherry blossom, cherry-lipped Russian dolls and rose-laden romantic postcards all peek out of the wide window of Exeter’s Insideout store, catching the bright eyes of passers-by. (D’you know? If I didn’t make them, I’d buy them.)

In my head I am singing ’99 Red Balloons’… do you remember that song? For a while now I have beavering away making this awesome clutch of shades for Insideout – an award winning gift retailer with shops in Exeter, Dartmouth and Tavistock. Having crunched some very crunchy numbers in February, I was more than ready to supply Nicky with wholesale unit prices and was dead excited when she placed an order for 49 of my most marvellous shades. The order includes the new Fly A Kite Ice Cream by Riley Blake, Vintage Yellow Aviary by Joel Dewberry, Trefle Matroyshkas Cream, French Post by Michael Miller and the favourite, June Song Tea by Alexander Henry. The car is packed and I’m ready to deliver tomorrow. I simply cannot wait to see them in the window of the Exeter store, which can be found in the swanky Princesshay area of the city. It’s not often you can buy handmade lampshades like this in a high-street store, and at a very reasonable price. So support Handmade and British and let your friends know!

My first…

payment! A customer gave me more than I had asked – that was a compliment and a welcome surprise. June Song Tea should now be settled nicely in its new home – enjoying a real fire, a twisted gold base, the attention of many admirers and hopefully being ignored by the owners’ two young boys!
Do I have to read the manual?
Posted on: 15/01/2011
I managed to snatch some time to take photos of my first ‘to-order’ shade. I had to ask for Fraser’s help as I couldn’t get the camera to work, so he sorted it out whilst I put some Lego together with the boys. Fraser fiddled around for a bit, then I fiddled around for a bit (after rescuing poor Robert who nearly got flattened by the huge mirror which was resting on the floor after I’d taken it down to get the composition right). This was the best photo, and I have to admit that, yes, it was taken by Fraser. All the ones I took were pants. So now I have to read the camera manual. Yuck, yuck, yuck.
