In my usual tradition, here is the round up of featured posts for 2011. It’s been a pretty tubulent year personally for me and I haven’t blogged as much as I usually do – but my New Year resolution is to do so, so get ready for more eclectic mixes of art, design and quirkyness!

‘A small start to a New Year’
A New Year and a new start. What a fabulous time we had at last nights party…and what a hangover. The Star Inn was completely packed out and everyone was in the party mood.
