Okay, I’ve left it far too late to wish you all a happy New Year, so I hope your January has been a good one so far. This newsletter was supposed to be out weeks ago but hopefully this audio-heavy collection of finds will supply the soundtrack to the rest of the month.

This month’s edition has a sprinkling of festive cheer and some gift ideas alongside the usual creative creations that have caught our eye. Grab a brew and a handful of Christmas chocolates and click away.

This month’s studio collection feels loosely linked to my current autumnal mood. Brew some coffee, stick some music on and dive on into the work of some very talented folk.

The first for this decade’s Five Finds puts the ‘new’ into new year with a collection of bits and bobs collected whilst munching on Quality Street. Enjoy!

From perfecting knots to decoding sailor tattoos, this month’s finds all have a distinctly maritime twist.

August's edition is a collection of all things hand-made, hand-drawn and handy to know.

With the days getting shorter and Wimbledon almost over, the collection this month is a celebration of summer. As always I hope you enjoy reading.

This month's collection is to be honest, random. Rather than trying to come up with a loose theme let's just say they're a collection of bookmarked bits that are all worth a look at. Enjoy!

May's instalment celebrates the 'extraordinary ordinary' holding a candle to everyday objects and the stories behind the commonplace.

Video game-like photography, a forgotten language and a nod to the passing of the legendary Dick Dale. This month's picks follow the theme of 'place'.

Five Finds is a monthly collection of five inspiring things we deemed worthy of sharing. Whether it's the lighter evenings or the balmy weather pushing thoughts to the outdoors, this month's picks have fallen loosely into the theme of 'nature'.
