The Miniatures - JUNE

J U N E

Something new for you from The Linen Garden.

THIS EDITION IS SOLD OUT BUT YOU CAN VIEW ITS CONTENTS ON THE LINEN GARDEN VIMEO CHANNEL - JUST CLICK HERE 

 
I wanted to create something similar to This Hour of Mine, something that was a layer of inspiration mixed with the anticipation of not quite knowing what you will receive, like opening a gift, a gathering of small precious details.  Many of you love to create and style and so I am hoping you will love The Miniatures.  Each will be a themed collection that will be available to purchase at the end of the month with delivery being the first week of the next.  This is a limited edition collection based on the ingredients available.

Each box for June's edition will contain a collection of beautiful portraits printed onto silk, detailed paper ephemera; antique, vintage and new.  Any new print produced will be taken from items I have purchased here in the studio such as the edge or pattern from an old French chocolate box, a transfer print from an old Victorian vase, a handwritten letter, an Edwardian postcard……  There will also be enclosed the odd interesting panel of antique fabric, lace, haberdashery, threads, hand painted papers and stickers, buttons and anything else that I think you will find of interest.

Just a simple and wonderful collection of delicious details to help you construct interesting pages in a journal or sketchbook, create a miniature artwork to be framed, incorporate in general collage work, embroider into the surfaces or keep as a styling box to use within your own photography such as flatlays. Re-arranging these pieces in multiple ways, before using them to photograph interesting compositions, is just a fabulous way to engage with the ingredients to start.   

There is no project to work through, just a box of beautiful details for you to use as a starting point to create something wonderful.    You may wish to start a new journal or sketchbook and use these Miniature boxes as a perfect way to spend an hour or two each month to create a series of pages as the weeks progress. 

I hope you love the idea of The Miniatures and enjoy the contents as much as I have enjoyed sourcing the details for you.  So, there is time for you to order that new sketchbook or start making the base to a new journal before your box of loveliness arrives.

The collection arrives in an A4 presentation box.

June's edition is set at an introductory price of £22, this will rise to £25 for the next edition in July.
