From plateware designer to designing with plates. Melbourne-based designer and keen vintage collector, Lucy King, has gone full circle, from once designing patterns for tableware company Wedgwood, to utilising cast-off plates to create one-off homeware pieces under the label, Me Old China.
This range is called "Polly Put the Kettle On".
I was very excited to have some of my Me Old China recycled 'Polly Put the Kettle On' cut plates featured in this months edition of Green Magazine! (Issue 17)
I'm a big fan of Green and have been subscribing for several years now. It's full of the most amazing homes, interior spaces and gardens all with a sustainable element - but also with great design aesthetics and always thoroughly inspiring.
I was absolutely delighted my cut out wall plates were featured in Green, and it's a fantastic way to start the year!

This looks great Lucy! I will have to sneak out to the newsagents today and take a look. Though I never need an excuse to purchase a magazine :)
