Mysterious Letters

October 30

I defy any decent human being not to read these letters and have their heart-warmed, their day brightened or their face smiled. It’s a beautiful, beautiful idea and you can even get involved in the next phase over at Kickstart (which, in itself, is also a beautiful beautiful idea).

Michael and Lenka decided one day to write a letter to every person in the world, starting with Cushendall in Northern Ireland. Their letters are generally about not much at all – that isn’t intended to do a dis-service to them, as this makes the project even more momentous – that they find something new to write about with each letter.

Handmade Brighton

October 12

Our Kirst organised Handmade Brighton last week (on Oct 4th) and it was a brilliant day and a great chance to meet some of Brighton’s most talented designer / makers working today. The stalls were excellent, music great and the free cakes delicious (the bar was open to, so that was pretty good)!

Here are some pics from the big day….
