We’ve had a fun few weeks there meeting and chatting with the customers. There’s quite a community in EN1, some of which go hunting for #pennydrops now! We hope to exhibit there again … Continue reading Time’s Up
17th November 2017. Last week Stantons surprised us with an array of biscuits made to look like #pennydrops. Hand crafted by Suzanne Randle, these really put a smile on our face and seemed far too nice to dunk into a cuppa! Sharon.
17th November 2017. We were dead chuffed to be asked by Time Out to make #pennydrops artwork for their ‘Reader Takeover Edition 2017’. We popped along to their HQ in London to work on the penny idea, which was going to feature on the front cover.

Whilst chatting to Stantons’ customers, a lady came in and announced that she had ‘found it’ (the penny). Much to the disappointment of the man sat next to me, … Continue reading Prints and #Pennydrops in Stantons
10 October 2017. Last Friday I spent a cracking morning at the wonderful Stantons, a cafe-gallery based in Bush Hill Park, Enfield.

10th September 2017. Sadly it’s time to pack away the ‘seaside’ and the summer for this season. With help from friends we dismantled the beach hut and ‘carnival funny-face For Sale’ sign and loaded it all in the van. It was strange to see Elements Gallery looking empty (not for too long though, as a … Continue reading Exit this way… (which way?)
8th September 2017.
