| Introduction | I am a magpie at heart...I am attracted to vintage things because they have that evocotive sense of nostalgia. All kinds of things catch my eye and lure me in, jewellery, textiles, handbags and everything Art Deco, my favourite era. I do have a slight tendency to create clutter out of it which is held mostly in check by my more minimalist husband! |
