Well I'm ashamed to say my ironing efforts would be hanging in the area of 73 miles. I'm not a typical female when it comes to pulling out the ironing board sadly for my Ollie who loves me to make his shirts wrinkle free. I remember when I was starting out styling  I use to assist the fashion director for Vogue Australia she had me ironing and steaming outfits for photo shoots . I was a whiz with the steamer but the minute I was asked to iron a shirt it was always a disaster. It's the arms. No matter how many tips and tricks I've been shown I can't for the life of me make the arms wrinkle free. I guess this is one of the reasons why I moved into interiors - although ironing + advertising shoots for bedlinen is another whole post I will share with you another time. 

How To Make The Front Cover

Ever wondered what you should do with your library of old magazines? Well my new favourite blog by John Paul Thurlow has come up with a clever idea. Get your pencils and paintbrushes out and get creative.

John Paul has created a hommage (six months in), to create cover art for every great magazine he owns (and a few he wished he owned). It's never a straight crib and it's not about perfection, the source magazines are simply a playground for for his imagination. I have picked a couple of my favourites but there's a load more you should check out so click here.
