Lego Drinks Bottle

Posted on | 1 Comment

  @ 2 1-4

There is no shortage of products out there for the Lego aficionado, the latest of which is this Drinks Bottle.

We've had storage bricks, storage heads, torches and lunch boxes and whilst some may be suffering from Lego fatigue, the classic style and block colours have some mileage yet.

This latest addition to the range is these colourful plastic bottles with Lego figure heads as the bottle top, which will certainly brighten up a packed lunch or picnic. In addition they are phtalate and bisphenol free  making them a safer option to store your beverage in.

You can pre-order the bottles from Firebox here.

London Folk Mugs from Our Workshop

Folk mugs

Got your London tray, bag and lunchbox? If you really do love London town, you're sure to want to complete your collection with these London Folk Mugs from Our Workshop. 

Far removed from tourist tat, these mugs are actually quite classy little fellows – in fact they remind me of the work of Kenneth Townsend and his London series of tiles from the late 60s/early 70s. Each mug features a simple illustration of three characters of London – the Yeoman, the Royal Guard and a policeman – beautifully depiciting their iconic outfits, and their fine moustaches. 

A mug costs £12.

Fairground mugs from Snowden Flood

Posted on | Leave a comment

Stop mug
Snowden Flood has been featured quite a few times on this site before: for her work featuring famous London landmarks and her take on design classics. A slightly different type of style is evident in her new range but still one that's pleasingly retro – as demonstrated with these fairground mugs.

The mugs feature illustrations influenced by traditional British folk art – indeed as the name suggests they are influenced by old-fashioned funfair signage. Each mug is decorated in a different colour with a different fairground ride style slogan.

The bone china mugs also draw on another British tradition in their manufacture as they are made in Stoke-On-Trent. 

You can buy the mugs individually for £18.50 or as a set of four for £70.
