Happy Halloween - Cats, Skulls and Spooky Delights

It’s almost Halloween, one of our favourite times of year for dressing up and Pumpkins Galore. We’re not out for the shock value this year with our Halloween goodies.  Just lots of subtle spooky and slightly sinister prints and accessories in the gallery, with the odd nod to some pretty cool dress up ideas.

If you love a Sugar Skull then we’ve just had a drop of new tri coin purses from SodaKitsch. Now featuring Foil Blocked Sugar Skulls.

They pair perfectly with Rich Fairhead’s Tat Skull Risograph Prints. You better be quick as the Limited Edition Gold Risograph is running low. It’s also available in Black.

Peter Carrington’s prints make the viewer question if these are images of science, nature, mystical or the occult. A beautiful and inspiring collection of work. What do you see? If you haven’t see it yet, there’s still time to check out the fox Peter drew as part of his window exhibition with us.

We are extremely privilege to have the beautiful new book and set of limited edition prints by prolific Edinburgh based Artist Kirsty Whiten. Kirsty has worked with us here in the gallery for a number of years and we love her new work. We are offering a Print and Book deal in the Gallery for £26. Individually her Book is £20 and Prints £12 each. Call in for details.

Whether you’re going Spacey or Witchy with your Fancy Dress we think this Monstrous Pencil necklace would be quite a cool edition to your outfit and jewellery box there after. Its gorgeous Zingy Lime/Yellow colours really pop.

Is It a pug? Is it a Skull? It’s a Pugskull! The perfect Halloween Patch. Comes as a set of 3 Tattoo Patches by Gemma Correll x Ohh Deer.

Eye Eye!! Maybe you could be an alien from another planet with an third eye? We’d advise pinning to your jumper and not your head though, Ouch!! Newly Arrived from Ark.

Last minute and need a super quick dress up? These new dress up kits by Clockwork Soldier are for kids but we’re sure you could make it work. An outfit We’re sure even Tony Stark would be impressed by.

Pop on over to our Pinterest board and see what Halloween Ideas we’re pinning this month.

Trick or Treat!

How Rude!

Have we got some rubbish news for you?  We are down to our last copies of these bright, cheery, colourful prints and we’ve only just uploaded them online for ya.. how Rude?  Yes presicely, they are by London based design duo, Rude!

Abi and Rupert are the folks behind Rude.  They met at work, left work, became Rude then became a family.  Over the last 8 years, they have grown their buisness to include many varying interests, all encompassing their trade mark cut out, colourful aesthetic.

Their fan base includes Zoe Ball and Tracy Emin, and of their own works, the designers say it is “our designs are rude in only the most innocent sense”.

We have a brilliant mix of their A3 Giclee prints available in the online shop, if you 100% love walking around the city in your brogues, then this collection will get a big ole tick on the list!

If you live techno, but love retro, then you share the design duo’s romantic take on craft.  This lap top case could be for you, cine film anyone?And the reverse will keep you amused for many an op art hour.

Not content with offering prints and textiles, the Rude designers aim “to make good design accessable, in whatever medium”.  True to their word, they have released this stunning collection of ceramics.  Titled the “Spal” collection, this teapot’s certain to be a good pourer.

And what’s a teapot without a matching mug?  Well, in keeping with the deisgn style, the mugs match, but not in a matchy matchy way, just to keep you guessing!Hopefully this Rude introduction has left you feeling inspired and ready to paddle your own design canoe?  Perhaps this cheeky wee note book would make the perfect starting point?Shop the full collection here

Happy Sunday!
