When spring and summer come around, I always feel drawn to using colour in my baskets. The world around me is like a painting in progress, with splashes of colour being added each day. A flower coming into bloom, a tree that stood with bare branches for months suddenly transformed by its beautiful leaves and each leaf and petal catching the light and shadow, to create a dazzling display.
The coasts colours change too. The moody greys and inky blues of winter are replaced with bright flashes of turquoise and and deep teals, the sand brightens as it dries out in the hot sunshine and the yellows, blues and pinks of the wildflowers creep over the dunes and fill every rocky crevice.
Little wonder then, that I feel excited at the prospect of playing with colour, mimicking the seasons as my baskets drift from the quiet natural tones of winter, into the vibrant, playful colours of summer.
My Splash of Colour collection is inspired by the beautiful colours of the coast.
Splash of Colour - 2 is a river pebble collected close to the coast and cocooned in raffia with accents of flax linen thread, in coastal colours.
