Sanna Annukka Soul Birds

Aren't these lovely? I have been a big admirer of Sanna Annukka's work for the last few years. Even if you haven't heard of her you will have seen her work. Remember the folksy Christmas bags, store decorations and packaging that M&S used last year- yes that was her. And I love her stuff for Marimekko, and would kill for more of her Kanteleen Kutsu mugs (I have one!). She is also Finnish- a beautiful country I would love to visit and she uses much of its folklore and heritage in her designs.

These Soul Birds are a tradition in Finland -that you keep them at your bedside to protect you- how sweet and meaningful as a gift for a new born or loved one.

You can find her here.
