Feature in Summer Issue Pdn Pix magazine

Apologies for the radio silence for the last few months. These few months have been mostly about planing and expanding. Ideas for rebranding JustNoey, a new website and more collections. Lots in the pipeline. In the mean time, I am excited to share, JustNoey's latest Press mention in the Summer Issue of photography magazine Pdn digital version PIX. Check it out here and read the magazine here.

Ceramics Matchbox Collection

So excited to finally share my Ceramic Matchbox Collection. The Ceramic boxes are available online here!

Lomo India

I visited family in India back in Feb for a few weeks. Here are a few film photos from my trip to New Delhi, Jaipur and Mumbai taken from my faithful Lomo LCA. I ended up shooting more digital this time because I had my new Olympus Pen-ep2 camera to play. Will share the digital pictures of India soon.

 

 Handmade toy umbrella seller with her gorgeous yellow skirt at SurajKund Craft Mela

Saw this Coca-Cola branded camel at the craft fair and didn't know if was crazy fun or just plain sad! Branding gone way too far!

We took a day trip to Jaipur from Delhi and just enjoyed walking around. I've visited Jaipur lots of times but it was Mr. S's first visit. Hawa Mahal (Palace of Winds) Jaipur. The reason it's called the wind palace is that it has 953 windows that allow the breeze to cool the palace.

 

Even though we were in Mumbai for 5 days this was the only time we managed to hang out at the beach. 
 

Handmade

So besides creating all JustNoey ceramic products, I've been recently trying out hand-building ceramics too. This is one of the pieces I created. Inspired by the cobalt blue pottery and summer, I created this bowl. I've used a gorgeous glaze on the inside of the bowl, that cracks on firing and gave a few blue dotted washes. While putting the blue dots, one of them trickled down, but I kinda love this mistake, because with that's what makes it special. Mr. S has already taken dibs on it already! Also it's taken a little longer to complete photographing my new Ceramic Matchbox Collection, but I am finally happy with how they look and really excited to share them. So watch out for them here next week.

*Sneak Peek* Ceramics Matchbox Collection

I am soooo excited to finally share a sneak peek of my new collection of Ceramic Matchboxes that I've been working since mid last year! After a lot of hard work, hiccups, frustration, disappointments, late nights, I am so ready to share it with everyone. This collection as you can see is inspired by Vintage matchbox packaging design. There are 6 designs in total and all the ceramic boxes have original illustrations by me.

Spotted at TopDrawer 2012

 

Apologies it's been so quiet lately on the Blog front. This year started out with a bang with my first ever Trade Show. Here are a few pictures from Spotted at Top Drawer Spring 2012 show at Earl's Court. Each year Spotted at Top Drawer is curated by Interiors writer Charlotte Abrahams to showcase 12 upcoming  designers and design based businesses and it was really exciting to be part of this year's fabulous group.

Happy New Year 2012

Happy New Year Guys! December passed by in a flurry of packing orders that I didn't really get a chance to blog. After a very lazy Holiday, I'm back in the New Year with restored energy for 2012. It's just the 4th day of the New Year but it's already turning out to be very busy. I'm taking part in my very first Trade Fair this January in a couple of weeks time and am really excited how far Just Noey has come along. I'll share more details and finally reveal a collection really close to heart that has taken almost a year in the making. In the mean time if like me you are having some PHB (Post Holiday Blues) why not head to my etsy shop. Starting today everything has a 15% off.
