I like to make things.

“Through combining my love for simplistic design with the use of subtle colour palettes to create paper and textiles pieces by hand, I aim to motivate, inspire or simply raise a smile or two along the way through Darwin & Gray’s ever-growing collection of handmade home and giftware.”

I never thought I’d see the day but looook, there’s pink happening at Darwin & Gray!!! The blush mini banners will be available at the @fabulousplaces Spring Market next Sunday (24th March) at The Roundhouse, Derby and then any remaining stock will go online at 8pm that night!
Sixteen | Workspace #marchmeetthemaker 🌿 My workspace is basically anywhere that I can get work done....my bed, my desk, my make shift desks when my desk is too cluttered, the dining room, the floor, my sisters floor, did I mention my bed (that’s my favourite) Here’s back when me and my assistant took over the whole dining room with two 8ft walls and a counter trying to figure out what the hell I was doing for our first @fabulousplaces market!
My kinda’ colour palette from @theyorkshirehare featuring our Yorkshire Classic Banner 🌿
Little ‘n’ Large custom for @clairenettleshipyarns 🧶
Fifteen | Motivation & Goals #marchmeetthemaker 🌿 I don’t really have a particular goal in mind or a reason to feel motivated to do what I do other than that feeling of pride when I get an order ping on my phone or when I take a step back after piecing together a display at a market that I’ve been working towards for weeks if not months! It’s super easy to work your arse off and not give yourself a pat on the back at the end of it....but when you finally remember to actually feel proud of what you’ve achieved so far then that’s enough to keep you motivated!!
