my creative space - labelled

new labelsblossoming almond treelabelled

These labels have been on the 'drawing board' for ages I'm afraid, they've been one of those little things that kept getting pushed down the list again and again. So I was delighted to finally get this parcel yesterday! This is a new design using my newish logo and with a bit of colour to add some fun. They are from Fancyweaver for those of you who are tempted to get some of your own.

I chose this favourite blue because I thought it would go well with most things. And it reminds me of this wonderful Van Gogh painting of almond blossom, quite apt for spring time which is springing around here.
Now to go and make something to sew my label into! More creative types here.

  6. What a wonderful piece to be inspired by too! That is one of my favourite art works.We saw it in Amsterdam and read about the meaning behind it. Vincent painted it for his brother Theo's first born son and it was hung above his crib. It was said to represent added branches to the family tree. We loved it so much we brought a large print of it and posted it back to Australia, where we put it away for a few years and had it framed when I was pregnant with Cohen. It hung above his cot as a baby and will hang in his room once more when we finally move into the new house.

    Did I mention I love the labels? :)
