editor’s note:
Well what happened there then? Once again we find ourselves headlong into another Christmas countdown after a year that has been only slightly less bizarre than the previous four. You remember that time we had to choose who was in our “Christmas Bubble”?
Every year, we try to reiterate the ‘use it or lose it’ notion of supporting local businesses and buying at least a few gifts from independent makers. This year is no different.
In this edition find our 32-page Alternative Gift Guide, to really take the AGG out of shopping for presents.
Elsewhere, we talk about second jobs with artist Lily Zee Hughes, perfect the pickling process with Thom Eagle, create a new world with Mini Gabi, bring style to the stands with You.R.Nice and delve into the desert with photographer Edward Thompson
Enjoy!
