Blog and Buy Sale's Spring Wishlist 2015 featuring Detola and Geek Lampshades

Oh so glad that Detola and Geek's African print handmade lampshades have been selected to feature in this year's Blog & Buy Sale's Spring Wish list. Whoo hoo!!! I always look out for these online handmade showcases (whether am part of them or not). Just the sheer talent alone always blow me away.

I personally love spring inspired colours, geometric retro designs as well as birds. My favourite three picks (too many awesome designs & talented designer / makers to chose from) are ...

Autumn 2014: Handmade lampshades to go with the season

So it is officially Autumn and I hear you all sounding a bit deflated. Feeling the slight drop in temperature, leaves are going to start falling, winter clothes out of the storage cupboards and more hot drinks and warm meals. It's not all dull and gloom! Just be prepared and go with the flow!

With the new fall season comes the rich warm colours like pumpkin orange, browns (chocolate, tan, sandy), natural, greens plus and don't forget the reds and blues.

I have some handmade lampshades that will lift both your mood as well as the rooms. They are all available to buy in my Folksy shop Detola And Geek


I will be introducing some new products into my Folksy store - one will be African wax print fabric wall decor.  

Colour of the day, 23rd September 2014 is Pantone's Sky Blue by Michele Bernhardt of Colorstrology. It's fair, artistic & compassionate. I'll let you be the judge of that!
