The Studio

Where it all
actually happens

A cutting mat that has seen better days, a dye pot borrowed from the kitchen, and more half-finished flowers than anyone needs. This is the part that does not make it into the product photographs — the offcuts, the trays of parts, and the six-in-the-morning stall set-ups.
