Made It on Made It!

Don't Blink, but if you look today
 my luggage tag is featured on Madeit's front page.

A first for me-
and the extra sweet moment was when my super talented friend Michelle from Sprout Gallery told me her little retro caravan is featured too.

Speaking of caravans,
I am currently re-stocking my Blue Caravan store with some new travel wallets, ticket holders and of course luggage tags. 

Hope you can pop over in the next day or two.
And, if you are on Facebook I'm there too :)

Commuting and eco-design: Travel Card Holders

Going Somewhere?
It feels an age since I've hoped on a plane.
At one stage in my life it was a regular thing.


Shirley Flight
(who you might remember from previous posts)
got me researching and introduced me to a whole new era of travel glamour...



...and plain sexism,
 but I DO confess I love the outfit!
For now, however, my hot pants and boots
 are staying in the closet.


Of course I still travel though.
Of course!


To work!

I am a public transport freak!
I actually enjoy catching the bus
 and bypassing all those suckers
 stuck in the daily traffic jam.
I don't listen to music, read a book
 or play with my phone (well maybe sometimes).
I look around- taking in all the sights,
 smells and goings on.


Eventually though, as always,
 my eyes track down to my ugly travel pass.
Being a visual person,
 I need to look at pleasant things not government logos!

So I have been designing and making travel card holders-eco travel card holders.
I have paired micro-fiche sheets with retro papers and created a series of travel passes 






So I may not be stepping onto the tarmac tomorrow
but I do have a little bit of travel glam in my bag!

Cinderella and Prince Charming Luggage Tags

My love of retro papers, microfiche and eco-cycling have been a marriage made in heaven
at least I think so :)

His and Hers luggage tags for the Bride and Groom to be.






Can you think of a Cinderella and Prince Charming, planning a long haul flight?
