PinPinFinds Autumn and Winter collection


On Sunday 24th August, the PinPinFinds Autumn and Winter collection launched at the Norwich Gift Emporium. PinPinFinds was created by Norwich designer and NUCA graduate Natasha Lloyd in 2011, and her designs are grabbing attention from far and wide.



Arriving early to carefully unpack all the items from her collection, much time was spent displaying all the different designs.






Many items in the PinPinFinds range is laser cut from sustainable birch wood. Natasha has gone to great lengths to ensure her products are ethically made and this is something that I really like about the work she does. The imagery comes from Victorian books and cigarette cards, and together they make the unique and eye catching pieces in the range.





The launch evening was a great success, with customers arriving from far and wide to appreciate the new collection and preorder items. Many pieces from the existing collection were also snapped up. All in all, a really nice night and it was good to meet so many people strolling around the Norwich Lanes.

There were nibbles...

...and a little celebration

Launch night was busy!

I’m really enjoying being part of the Emporium and meeting other creative folk.
