*ROYAL WEDDING TEA TOWEL*


THIS TEA TOWEL IS A LIMITED EDITION OF 40.

Each towel is screen printed by hand in London and is £20.

To commemorate the impending nuptials of Prince William and Kate Middleton talented London based illustrator Luke James has taken inspiration from classic boxing match posters when creating his punchy design for this “Royal Rumble” tea towel. It's a limited edition of just 40 and we've grabbed them all and we're selling it exclusively online through our friends at CULTURELABEL.COM
Each tea towel is 100% cotton and has been screen printed by Luke in his Hoxton studio using eco-friendly inks.

Each tea towel is hand finished and is a real knock out!

Luke James graduated from Bournemouth Arts Institute, UK in 2006 and has been enjoying life as a busy freelance illustrator ever since. He creates work for a variety of different clients.

Some of these include The Sunday Times, The Sunday Express, Marks & Spencer, Barton Wilmore, Earthborn Paints, Howies, 55DSL, Amelia's Magazine and Notion Magazine.

A strong discipline in drawing and an obsession with mark making and line-quality form the basis of Luke's illustration. Luke's aim is to maintain the balance between new digital media and traditional, craft-based media, embracing past, present and future techniques.

PRINCE WILLIAM AND KATE MIDDLETON GO ALL TWILIGHT

Prince William and his blushing bride to be Kate Middleton have a secret, they're vampires. This picture clearly shows fangs and red eyes. I bet they only feed only blue blooded victims though!

We might be doing badges of this as part of our Royal Wedding celebrations in April!!!

Subversive Royal Wedding Celebrations at MAIDEN



This April Maiden in Shoreditch will be going Royal Wedding crazy… but there’s a twist. Kate and William will be virtually absent from these celebrations because during April at Maiden it’s all about Charles & Diana’s wedding of 1981. The Mad Artists Tea Party gang are also going to be selling some very subversive cakes celebrating past and present Royal Weddings (yes you are right to be afraid), and will also branching out with the sale of bacon bouquets the wedding breakfast of choice!

On 29th July 1981 an estimated 700 million people watched Lady Diana Spencer walk up the aisle of St Paul’s Cathedral (it took some effort as the train of her wedding dress was 25 feet in length) to meet HRH Prince of Wales. 600,000 people lined the streets of London hoping to catch a glimpse of the blushing bride and her Prince Charming. Those who are old enough to remember the day will always remember it fondly.


The team at Maiden have spent weeks collecting an amazing array of memorabilia and souvenirs from the Royal Wedding of 30 years ago. Mugs, tea towels, newspapers from day, souvenir magazines, jewelery, biscuit tins, money boxes, framed pictures, books, jigsaws, all of them in mint condition will be on sale at affordable prices starting from £5 for a mug. The walls of the shop’s basement will be covered with newspaper pages and photographs from the day, which is also the location where some pretty bonkers cakes celebrating the royal wedding can be found!
