Vom

The colour of a wall in my bedroom in my new flat. Probably (definitely) the worst colour ever (at least to paint a very large wall). Pantone 152 C, is a pretty good match.


The same colour is in the lounge. It matches the lime green curtains nicely.

Found on the website for World Headquarters in Newcastle. Love the music in that place.

Camel in a Suitcase


As seen in the Saatchi Gallery earlier this year. Lifesize. I'm really interested in taxidermy and anatomy which is why I love this.

Worst postcards ever?

As well as collecting postcards I like, I've started a collecting postcards which are badly designed and/or are examples of terrible typography. These two were bought in a seaside town in Tuscany this summer and are covered in glitter.

Look at the kittens' little sparkly eyes! OMG so adorable yeah?


Vintage Toys in Camden

As an obsessive collector, I love this stall in the Camden Stables market which sells vintage toys and comic books.

I AM NOT A BAG LADY

For my Final Major Project of the Foundation course at Chelsea, I decided to focus on the idea of hoarding vs collecting. I am an obsessive collector of things such as old tickets, envelopes, empty packets etc. During my first year away from home, I managed to collect a huge amount of 'stuff'. The collections must be kept organised so I displayed selected objects in my room or kept them in files.

I created an inventory of every item on my computer then coded and photographed each object. This information was then turned into a 187 page book. Each collection is divided into sections.
