For those of you new to my blog or that just didnt know, along with my business partner She's Called Claire I am one half of Brighton's non profit creative and crafty studio space Super+Super HQ. We launched two and a half years ago a stones throw away from the sea front in the vibrant Laine's in Brighton UK where we took on a 3 story unused shop and renovated it, with the help of some friends, into our dream studio. Over the past couple of years alongside working our day jobs and other creative outlets we have worked relentlessly keeping our happy studio full of creative freelancers, craft, parties and cake. It hasn't always been an easy ride but I am so unbelievably lucky that my business partner is my best friend and that we have been able to support one another in the high's and low's of starting up and running a small creative business. In july last year whilst at a dear friend's birthday party we sipped a home made martini (you know, the extra strong kind that makes you blink whilst you drink it) and were then asked to pitch a S+S book....(Thanks Mel x x )
Today we can share the amazing news that we have been keeping quiet for a few months whilst we worked away at our HQ on many many lovely craft projects to bring to YOU October 2014.
Yeah!
Edition one and two of the Super+Super series are Embroidery and Printmaking.
Each book contains 20 how to projects focusing on homewares, accessories and lifestyle products. The projects vary in difficulty starting with the lazy crafters section which contains projects perfect for a quick craft fix. We then have Weeknight Winners, Perpetual Crafters for slightly longer projects and Committed Crafters, ideal for long weekends or holidays.
We will be holding some events alongside the launch so keep your eyes peeled on our Facebook page for announcements. We will also be picking 5 lucky superheros to attend our launch party. Sign up to our newsletter here to be in a chance to win.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported us throughout this process so far. You know who you are (and thanks for being ace at keeping secrets).
We’ll have some more sneak peeks coming your way on the blog over the next few months and be sure to follow us on Instagram @supersuperhq for some ‘behind the scenes’ action.
