When flicking through the november issue of the lovely 'country homes & interiors' magazine...
I thought this looks like scrummy stuff,then i realised i have some of these lovely items...
Made by 'Hume Sweet Hume' in orkney by two sisters...oohh my you should see were they live & have their wonderful business...Here is some of the info from one of their tags,sorry forgot to rotate the photo,hope that you are all good at reading sideways!!
And here is my lovely bag in a slate grey,well they call it mint?It is part of the 'grobust' design,52% silk,48% lambswool..with a lovely design on one side & a plainer design on the other..
The bag fastens with a loop & a wonderfully smooth pebble...
I bought the brooch seperatly & added it to the bag...
Even the brooch has a lovely pebble...
I have a purse to match..
Each item comes with a tag & a lovely pebble...one i use as a bookmark...
These clever girls make jumpers,cardi's & scarfs along with the bags,purses & brooches in different designs & colours...if you fancy taking a peek here is were to find them..www.humesweethume.com
Iwas lucky enough to stumble across their lovely items when on holiday in wonderful cornwall from christines at the seagarden portscatho..
Take a look..you will be glad you did!!..
What a really lovely bag - it is certainly beautiful work. I will have to go and have a look at their website!

Morning Heidi. I have come across them and their work in a few magazines, and have been really impressed. Such beautiful simplicity in their styles. Love your pieces. Have a lovely day x
ReplyDeleteI love their stuff too, I have a lot of their bits and pieces but not jumpers as they are always too small for my ample frame...their life looks idylic doesnt it...
ReplyDeleteI thought it looked familiar!
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of the Sea Garden too and always go on a little pilgramige there every time I am in Cormwall. I really love the pebbles!
