We have a lot of rolls of film that haven't been developed for years, so we've been randomly selecting a roll and taking it in to get developed.

This one was literally just a whole roll full of photos of in a full animal print outfit, sitting on an animal print table and showing off animal print pots by 😝 These are probably from 2021.

It's nice to finish projects 😝😝😝😝

We have 2 jewellery dishes, a huge mirror, mini side table, bedside cupboard and a desk mirror 💞

All pieces are original vintage which have been saved and revamped cause it was U G L Y and probably would have headed for landfill. But if the piece has a good shape, it's worth making it more interesting so it can be reloved.

Mirrors are hard to photograph 🫨I used paint pens for the first time and it was heaven 💫💫💫💫💫

We’re back, baby!

We’ve been working behind the scenes at to bring you even better pieces this year. Our mission? To make Xanthe’s Dad custom creations more accessible to everyone—think Andy Warhol vibes but with a unique twist!

So, how did we do it?
Introducing our brand-new 1-of-1 handmade badges, pins, and magnets! Each piece is lovingly crafted using authentic vintage media we’ve hunted down from all sorts of places—magazines, books, flyers, prints, you name it. We’re talking imagery from the 1950s through to Y2K!

These visuals have been tucked away in old books for decades, waiting for their comeback. In a world obsessed with digital media, we’re keeping physical media alive. These pins are like walking archival pieces—tiny slices of history you can wear!

Here’s the kicker:
Every pin is truly one-of-a-kind. Once you snag it, it’s yours forever—we can’t recreate it. It’s a unique statement in a world of mass production.

By repurposing vintage media, we’re not just making art; we’re saving these gems from landfill and keeping them in circulation. If you love nostalgia, individuality, and sustainable style, these pins and magnets are calling your name.

Ready to own a piece of history?
Check them out at our stall Feb 15th, 2025 in Newtown!
