Our Magpie Collection at 72 Rivington street is a glittery shiny
treat for the present hunter. To be quite honest it was rather hard
to part with some of these. This is my top three of what is on offer.

And sold TODAY - The Office. It's all singing and all dancing
and I'm actually a little sad it's gone from my life. I hope the
buyer treasures this one as it is a one off and I don't think I'll
ever find anything quite as fabulous.

I suggest you get down there sharpish to bag a delight for you
mantel piece.

My Two Front Teeth

Sooooo we have been busy little beavers preparing for the launch of YCN's Christmas shop at 72 Rivington Street in Shoreditch. We have collaborated with YCN to produce the Christmas shop named 'My Two Front Teeth' which includes a glittery window display, a sparkly sequin makeover on the exterior of the building, a rainbow-themed Christmas tree and the Jiggery Pokery Magpie collection made up of various twinkly, shiny bits and bobs which we have made, found and customised. The magpie collection is all for sale. Some bits are one-offs and others can be made to order. We have also directed a project called Odd-Stockings where we have invited various designers, artists and others to create one-off stockings which will be sold to raise money for a charity of their choice. Participants include Mother, Donna Wilson, SCP, Johnny Kelly, Ritta Ikkonen, Kate Moross & Danny Sangra amongst others and they will be popping up at various dates throughout December. There is also a plethora of hand-printed wrapping paper, limited edition Christmas cards and other pretty design objects for sale in the shop so go down and check it out for yourselves. x

The concept of My Two Front Teeth comes from the song by Donald Yetter Gardner which you can read more about here. These are the lyrics of the song. It's DEFINITELY mine and Anna's Christmas Banger this year:

Every body Pauses and stares at me
These two teeth are gone as you can see
I don't know just who to blame for this catastrophe!
But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth!

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas."

It seems so long since I could say,
"Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
if I could only whistle (thhhh, thhhh)

All I want for Christmas
is my two front teeth,
my two front teeth,
see my two front teeth.

Gee, if I could only
have my two front teeth,
then I could wish you
"Merry Christmas!"
