Lov Li are listening to...

a little bit of classic groove to perk us up on this dark damp Friday afternoon from Tom Browne

We love Funkin for Jamaica

 

 

 

things we're loving this Friday the 13th.....

This week Lov Li are just loving the work of designer, artist, maker  Lou Roter

Reflecting her passion for the natural world and deep-seated recycling ethic, Lou’s eclectic range uses collage and decoupage and both homemade and vintage decals to transform unloved objects into highly desirable home-wares.

 

Whether it’s vintage bone china or a battered French desk, a salvaged polypropylene stacking chair or a 1960s mirror, each of her witty transformations is unique... Stag beetles march across a faded chintz tea plate… Jaded chairs are overgrown with roses, nettles and thorns… Translucent black butterflies flit over foxed glass…

you can see more about Lou on her website www.lourota.com and her pieces can be found for sale in Liberty and Caravan
