  • What it holds

    Three pale turquoise flowers rise from a burgundy vase decorated with pink beads, zigzags and a blue flower brooch. A pink border with bright blue blocks frames the whole arrangement.

    She's a more-is-more kind of girl, happily mixing vintage finds with contemporary accessories and wearing whatever makes her happy.

    Story & inspiration

    This artwork started with colour. I pulled together some painted paper offcuts in combinations I loved, then worked out what I wanted to create with them.

    I was thinking about fashion and how much fun it is getting dressed up, especially mixing vintage pieces with something new.

    So I decided to dress up my vase! I added beads, a flower brooch and patterns, playing with different shapes and colours until she was ready to go.

    Where it lives best

    At 20.3 × 25.4 cm, All Dressed Up would be super cute on a bookshelf, tucked between your favourite books and collected treasures.

    The 38 mm cradled board means she can stand on a stable shelf without needing a separate frame.

    She'd also look fabulous on a dressing table, bringing some fun to your morning routine, or as part of a colourful gallery wall.

    • Her beads and flower brooch bring the fun of dressing up into your everyday surroundings.

    • The turquoise flowers and burgundy vase give your shelf a playful combination of colour and pattern.

    • She can stand amongst your favourite books and objects, making your bookshelf feel more personal.

    • Her personality is a reminder to wear the fabulous earrings and have fun experimenting with your style.

    • The finished 38 mm edge means you can display her on a shelf or hang her straight on the wall.

Artist’s Note

I had so much fun with this one, starting with a stack of painted paper offcuts and turning them into a vase with her own sense of style. I love combining things that don't necessarily belong together and seeing how they work. And I think she looks really quite pleased with her outfit!
