Binny Talib wallpaper
One of the things I like best about the internet is the way it allows niche makers to put out stuff that would never have found a market before. And Binny Talib’s whimsical wallpaper is a perfect example of that. Olden days, she’d have had to print it up, ship it to stores, and watch [...]

They specialise mainly in retro prints for grown-ups, but I spied this little gem, Circus Circus! in amongst the burlesque dancers and 50s housewives. Originally for a [...]

Meet ‘Whitby’, a nautical print inspired by 1950s linocuts, featuring fishing boats and seagulls on the rocky seas. Part of their ‘Day Tripper’ collection which is [...]
10 ideas for London-themed Rooms
The iconography of London is a great theme for a child’s room. Inspired by Alice Tait’s funky London map, £15, I’ve rounded up a selection of decorative goodies based on the capital’s most famous icons. Firstly, the walls. A London room wouldn’t be complete without some hand screen-printed Lizzie Allen wallpaper. The iconic ‘Red Buses [...]
