A Wanderlust Backbird mini card.

We have just released our new collection and this blackbird is one of my favourites. I have so many little drawings on bits of paper that I love, and introducing our mini cards was a way for me to incorporate them into our collection.

I handprint all of our cards individually on this foil printing press. It is a laborious process but I like the time and care that hand printing gives to paper goods, and the touch of golden foil really helps to make the designs sing.

Wanderlust cards stacked up underneath a Wanderlust wall sign.

My studio is my happy place! It is the larger bedroom in my flat and has packing tables, my desk where I do creative work, a table for foil printing and stores some of our stock.

An image from before Wanderlust was started- here I am at my Fine Art degree show in 2016. I knew I wanted to start a stationery company in my final year at university but starting out felt like a very daunting task.

Gold framed paintings on the wall at Tate Britain.

I like to go to galleries regularly to inform my design work but also to get some time away from the studio so that I’m more refreshed when I return. This is my favourite room at Tate Britain and one of my favourite Rossetti paintings.

A blue floral design.

I’m at my happiest when I’m drawing and painting- Wanderlust has been a way to make that love for creating part of my daily life. Admittedly all the other aspects of running a business often get in the way!

The first time I was able to get my products professionally photographed was so exciting and really elevated my website and business. We have our images taken by product photographer Laura Hutchinson- she has such an eye and I love her minimal styling.

A blue and white portrait painting stuck to the wall.

A snapshot of the studio walls where I like to pin up drawings as I make them. My workspace is never without plants- I use them as drawing inspiration and like the moments of calm that tending to them brings.

Before starting my business wrapping presents was something I loved doing and now I get the same enjoyment on a daily basis from packing wholesale orders! This is one of the first orders we sent out to The Hambledon.
