FOXY!

Feeling foxy today at Osborn HQ.
Mibo's Fox Tea Towel (£11.50 plus £2.95 p+p) which can be turned into a soft toy - with the right proportions of needle, thread, stuffing and patience. A good project for a rainy summer afternoon.


Becky Crow works with sheet copper and silver - the flat pieces which are pierced out of the metal and textured and finished with different techniques to give them dimension. 
These fox cufflinks are part of The Forest collection which includes pheasants and oak trees. Contact Becky via her website to buy her jewellery.


One of my favourite foxy necklaces is this one from Clara Francis made from thousands of tiny glass beads woven together (£140).


Lucy Palmer's necklace is of an urban fox taking a walk (£205) - Lucy uses sheet silver, and gold foil to embellish the surface, layering the metal to create a 3D effect.
