Susie Watson Designs, Cambridge

This week, I was lucky enough to be invited to my first event in Cambridge. This was by no means my first event with brands and bloggers, but I was still really excited and nervous to meet everyone at the new Cambridge store for Susie Watson Designs. The store was beautiful and I couldn’t wait to share some pictures with you:

The old Jessops store on Green Street has been completely transformed into a pastel paradise filled with pottery, fabrics and homeware goodies. The handcrafted and handpainted items are beautiful, with cute designs featuring fruits, animals and hearts. I particularly love the tiles, which I can imagine creating a pretty and chic kitchen, and the dog beds and bowls were very tempting for a dog owner like myself! I love the idea of adding the bright pom pom trims to some cushions and the small glass jars holding daisies littered around the store looked very cute. 
Although initially a shop that seems to cater to country houses, I could also see some of the glassware and colour options of the paint looking fantastic in a modern home. It is certainly a store which fits in very well with the Cambridge aesthetic and I can see the store hopefully flourishing in this city. The teacups would look fantastic in any house, and I took home the Honey Bees Large Mug*. It not only fits a huge cup of tea, just how I like it, but when it isn’t filled with drink, it lives on my windowledge and currently houses some tomatoes:
Susie Watson Designs have 8 shops across the south of England and is certainly worth a visit to pick up some cute, handcrafted additions to your home. What do you think of Susie Watson Designs? Are you a Cambridge blogger? If so, please say hello!
