Wee Birdy is an exploratory field guide to the hidden gems in London and Sydney and sparkling treasures on the (online) horizon.
Selected as one of the Top 50 Design Blogs in the World by Times Online, as well as one of the Top 100 Blogs in the World by The Sunday Times, Wee Birdy is edited and written by former magazine editor Top Bird.
Top Bird recently spent three years in London, where she was Deputy Shopping & Style Editor at Time Out London, before returning to her Sydney nest.
A self-confessed bird nerd, Wee Birdy explores the very best in shopping, style, fashion, beauty, design, interiors, craft and handmade.
I'm loving the new prints and tiles by London-based artist Martin Grover: London iconography, pathos and an irreverent sense of humour rolled into one. Most excellent. They're available now from Rob Ryan's shop Ryantown on Columbia Road.
those are fabulous- I want!

This is why the internet is so wonderful. Here I am working away feeling a bit wistful and then I'm blown away by some fabulous work! Thanks for the heads up on Martin Grover. Just looked at his wedsite and realised I saw one of his paintings at the Broomhill art hotel and scuplture gardens in north Devon. I love the titles of the prints, the Carpet Right one is heartbreaking.

Oh. My. Lordy! They are BEAUTIFUL. Have had a peek on his blog and Etsy shop but to no avail. Will be heartbroken if they have all been snaffled!
