Crafted creatures
When fine jewellers do wacky things with their jewels I find it totally adorable. Solange Azagury-Partridge has created this collection of hand carved animal rings to celebrate Chinese New Year. Aren’t they wild?

I want, I want: Janette Beckman’s newspaper
At times like this I really miss the days of working in an office and having full time access to a colour photocopier. It made my Christmas wrapping process so much more fun. Just thumb through the pages of Vogue/World of Interiors/Interview, slap selected pages on copier, enlarge x200% and press copy. Result: lovely glossy A3 pages for personalised gift wrapping and a queue of disgruntled interns behind.
These days I have to settle for the lush pages of How To Spend It but I do find them a wee bit thin and those staples are a bore. So I love the idea of Brit photographer Janette Beckman’s ‘newspaper’, featuring 24 pages of her famous 70s-80s youth culture portraits. Perfect for wrapping anything music, photography or fashion-related and yes, I would totally be that person who rescues the paper after the gift has been unwrapped…
