our very own queen just dropped off a fresh batch of scone mixes!

"Having lived two years in London, it was time for Lisa Procter to return stateside with her British husband. As she prepared to leave she was struck by how much she was going to miss the city and the culture. London is magical, but it was not the history or the energy of the city that left it's mark, rather it was the ability of the English to slow down and savor the small things: Spring daffodils in St.James Park, sunday picnics with friends, funny hats and crackers at Christmas time... and of course dessert, or as the English call it – pudding!"

teresa green has left the uk headed for o'suz

"The importance of our range having a function is also key- the utilitarian, functionality and the design play equal roles.

The items are a canvas for the prints, and are designed around the shape and layout of each object.

I have a passion for antique kitchenallia- especially kitchen scales and ladle shaped spoons. Both grandpa’s have also fed my imagination with crammed sheds full of old garden objects and treasure-I have an obsession for elongated watering cans and apple ladders…."
