I Heart H Is For Home

There is so much stuff on their website that I wish I had the room for, they have such a great eye for vintage bits and bobs, where do they find it all? I would love to go and visit their space but it's a long way away... one day! Here are some items of loveliness you can buy on their site!

Jessie Tait

My latest 'discovery' is Jessie Tait, a fab ceramics designer who died earlier this year. Read more here. The reason I have looked into her work is because my boyfriend bought me a Jessie Tait Midwinter coffee pot for our 4 year anniversary present :o) - he had a little help from a good friend of mine and fellow ceramics enthusiast :o) It is beautiful, the pattern is like the tureen pictured below (available on Ebay). I think all of her work is beautiful so I shall be keeping my eye out for more on Ebay...

The added bonus is whilst looking for Jessie Tait images I found a new blog to follow!















Here are some more images of her designs, first one courtesy of Dee Beale's blog:























And this one from House Bible:

Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll!

I went to see the film about Ian Dury last night and it was brilliant! I didn't realise he studied art with Sir Peter Blake, the opening credits of the film were by Peter Blake and were fantastic! Here is a newly colourised version of the New Boots and Panties album cover by Peter Blake...
(image courtesy of Pop Matters). I have always been a massive fan of Peter Blake's work, ever since Sgt Pepper of course! Here is a beautiful piece of his work that is all about another of my favourite people - Elvis! (Image courtesy of Artnet)

Should I?

Have found a smaller, older, cheaper and cuter substitute for the Bambi light! Should I get them or not? I have fallen in love with them!

Update: 020210, am leaving them be. My John Clappison Hornsea ashtray arrived in the post today and am very happy!

John Clappison

I have just 'discovered' John Clappison! Partly down to H Is For Home, their blog is excellent and whenever you look for something like Hornsea in Google images, their images are always there in abundance! Anyway, I love his style, I have just bought my first ever Ebay purchase which is Hornsea but was designed by him! (The bird ashtray I blogged about before.) I can't wait for it to arrive in the post!
Other John Clappison Ebay treats available are below...

I Heart Hornsea

I love picking up the odd bit of Hornsea pottery in charity shops, I am a sucker for 60s and 70s design! Found this pic on the web (courtesy of H Is For Home), I want one!

I LOVE this website


H Is For Home is such a great website full of lots of items for the home and I want to buy them all! But sadly I have run out of room and it's one in, one out at my flat at the moment. I can still browse the pages and admire everything though!
