I was very proud to have my first article published in the May edition of the UK's no.1 vintage monthly, VINTAGE LIFE MAGAZINE.

The article gives advice to small vintage businesses about branding and how to get your business noticed. I’d love this business advice section to become a regular feature, so please let them know if you enjoyed reading it!

Thank you to everyone that entered the Cover Competition;the winning entry is a beaut, don’t you think?!
