Made By Hand

Nautical Handicrafts

Nautical HandicraftsWhen it came to sourcing for today's nautical issue, we thought for sure we would get stumped with the Made By Hand section.

Our fears weren't necessary as it seems there are a sea of people out there making many a handicraft with an underwater or nautical theme.

Chopper Style Cycle

Chopper Style CycleA motorcycle handcrafted from vintage watch parts. For the boys I don't think it gets much better than this.

It's got scratched up gears and wheels and has been carefully assembled by hand by A Second Time.

We're not sure what you're going to do with this mini motorcycle except let it collect dust on a desk, but hey, it might be joining a small army of desk collectables...

Would you Like Fries With That Scarf?

Would you Like Fries With That Scarf?Etsy is a continual source of entertainment when it comes to items you don't need, much like Japan. For today's breakfast menu, we serve you hand crocheted scarves. You can choose from a Bacon, Eggs and Toast Scarf, or for something healthier a Pink Grapefruit Scarf.

Our pic this  Autumn morning is a Pancake Scarf with Butter and Syrup, as you get 14 pancakes but they have no sugar and won't ruin the diet.

Secret's In A Paper Box

Secret's In A Paper BoxSometimes you just need to get stuff off your chest. And passing around little secrets in notes of paper is nostalgic of school days gone.

This little hand made box comes with 10 'top secret' note cards and envelopes and each card measures 5cm x 8.9cm, so they're only mini. So you'll have to be brief, but how many words do you need to say 'I slept with your ......'?

Buttons by Lou Lou

Buttons by Lou LouWe're not sure if you have tried using those little button machines or DIY button makers. But we have here at Distillate and they're a punish. So hats off to Lou Lou who has managed to not only get the image centered, but also has made them pretty damn neat.

These little handmade buttons are covered in sweet fabrics and come on clips or as toggles on elastic bands.

Handmade Humpty Dumpty

Handmade Humpty Dumpty	This little couple of handmade humpty's are just too cute. Made from mixed materials and sit at 10 x 10 x 24cm. Round little dumplings aren't they. We like her sweet jumper and his dapper suit, very stylish for small toys.

Couveture sell online thankfully, as we obviously all can't make it to their beautiful London store. Which is unfortunate don't you agree?
