A Walk in the Country
The second edition of something new for you from The Linen Garden.
As you know, each year I like to curate a series of interesting boxes that are available at interval points throughout the year. You may have received last year's The Miniatures and enjoyed using the components within your own journals, sketchbooks or personal projects.
Let me introduce you to this years series titled the 'Sketchbook Stories'. A box that is layered with inspiration mixed with the anticipation of not quite knowing what you will receive. A gift to yourself to open over a quiet afternoon or evening, containing a gathering of small precious details.
I know many of you love to collage, create and style and so I am hoping you will love the Sketchbook Stories. Each will be a themed collection that will be available to purchase around every 4-6 weeks, depending on how busy the studio is within the season.
This is a limited edition collection based on the ingredients available. There is only a short run available within this second edition.
A Walk in the Country is a meandering of layers that is inspired by nature's details found in hedgerows, along narrow lanes and across fields and skies. You will open a box of beautiful finds and prints such as interesting textures of antiqued and vintage papers, rustic threads and yarns, printed papers taken from old archive designs and engraved botanical studies, haberdashery, hand painted stickers, buttons and anything else that I think you will find of interest.
Just a simple and wonderful collection of delicate details to help you construct narrative pages in a journal or sketchbook, create an interesting collage/artwork to be framed, incorporate in general project work, embroider into the surfaces or keep as a styling box to use within your own photography.
I hope you love the Sketchbook Stories and enjoy the contents as much as I have enjoyed sourcing the details for you.
This year the series arrives in an A5 hard boarded presentation box. This is twice as deep as last years A4, so the area space is the same. I just wanted something a little deeper so I can play around with the depth of found objects too.
