Christmas gift guide: for crafties

Selfies. You take ’em. You share ’em. You never look at ’em again. Charlotte Mei, a brilliant illustrator and all-round creative cat from London, has decided to reinvent the concept of selfie. Introducing the ceramic selfie. Here’s how it works: you send Charlotte a photo of someone. Approximately two weeks later she’ll mail you a glazed interpretation of their head. That makes it sound far creepier than it is. These things are thoroughly charming.

The Shag Rooms isn’t as rude as it sounds – it’s the work of east London based rug artist Amelia Collis, whose creations celebrate the female form and will look great on your walls (they’re too pretty for the floor).
