Miss print was one of the first designer makers I found whilst doing a research task in my first year. And ever since I love following and keeping up with this designer maker. I love how simple yet effective the designs are and how full of colour they are. I like how everything is handrawn but looks so abstract when printed. I am due a trip to London this year so I will definitely be taking a trip into john Lewis's which is a stockist for MissPrint.

One aspect of this designer maker that I adore specifically is the wall murals. They capture such simplicity by just been monochrome but this works so effectively.

These two wall murals are my favourite, I think the idea of having these in the rooms of my house would really give the room originality and decoration. I think the techniques used in the original drawings to produce these has worked exellently in the final product. I aspire myself to create wall murals, i really think they are such an easy way of bringing a wall to life without wallpapering.

Tracy Kendall was also a nominee for the Elle Decoration British Design Awards 2013.

I came across this website looking for designer makers, it allows designers to sell their work through this website. Therefore, is full of inspirational designers to look at.

on this website i came across 'Mini munchkins' who are a small family run business from North Yorkshire who create baby gifts that are traditional with a twist.

'Our aim is to produce pretty, unusual gifts that are special enough for that perfect little person. Using a range of techniques many of our items feature hand embroidery which although extremely time consuming gives a perfect delicate finish.'
