Clare Nicolson

Bought Frankie today and was so pleased that they featured one of our UK favourite's Clare Nicolson. We just got a new delivery and here is a snapshot of what's instore now;

Sweet Nellie Cushion (so divine in a nursery)

Secret Garden Wallhanging (works with everything!)


The Vincent cushion (have a closer look for the bluebird...so divine!)


Peter and Polly Cushion (so much detail in this one)
Cosy Cushion (looks like its knitted but is a screen print)

These are just a few of the designs we currently have and earn't they just the sweetest! What's fab about them is that they can be used in so many ways - in your room, childrens room, on your favourite chair...
In case you havent seen her stuff before, Clare Nicolson textiles combines digitally printed cottons with vintage fabric to create a fresh range of interior textiles and accessories. Her designs are taken from paper collages which she creates using decorative papers and packaging. Inspiration for collages can come from almost anything; an old teapot, a walk in the country, even the birds in her garden.
Only have 1 of each instore so be quick if you love it x
