“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great”.
What the hell am I going to write about? Well in the interest of keeping myself motivated, quite simply, things that I am passionate about and want to share. Things like:
-
Behind the scenes – you’ll find lots more information on my business here, my working process and the exciting places I go (when we are allowed again) and what I get up to.
-
Stories – I would love to share the stories behind the Memory Boxes I create out of my customer’s personal keepsakes here, as it’s celebrating the stories, memories and people these special items represent that really excites me and why I started my business.
-
Research – when I find exciting new antique objects on my travels around charity shops, antiques fairs, boot sales I like to know where they come from. What was their purpose? Who made them and why? And I figure if I find this interesting maybe some of you will too. This is going to be called ‘What’s this item?’ and I have a very special object to start with, the first antique I was ever bought.
-
New Experiences – I have set myself a couple of goals this year and one of them is to start mudlarking along the Thames. I plan on documenting my experience here and (fingers crossed) the history of the objects I find.
