The Union Jack party hat… celebrating the Queen’s platinum jubilee of her reign where we all wore these hats and ate trifle so good its recipe was made at Fortnum & Mason… months later Queen Elizabeth the 2nd died and I felt as though I had lost my grandmother

The spatula knife. Essential for mixing up cement and laying it out, musing up colours… must keep these clean or they rust up something awful

A jar of gold pigment ink… gives a golden lustre to everything

Uvas wine bottle cork. Bloody good wine this and at an affordable price, dangerously yummy

A castańa … smoky blossoms of fun prevalent everywhere in Andalusian summertime

My trusty oh so comfortable fake Birkenstock slides… very comfy in the studio
