Lucy Sparrow, the artist who makes felt versions of everyday items like packets of crisps, jars of Marmite, bottles of spirits and fruit and vegetables, has opened a pop-up shop at Unit 22, The Brunswick Centre, near Russell Square tube, to sell her items - including little felt Christmas tree decorations - in the run up to Christmas 2022.
I love Lucy's art, and have been buying bits ever since her 'Corner Store' installation (a real corner store, kitted out entirely with felted stock) in 2014, and to to have a Christmas pop-up is an absolutely wonderful thing. It is open daily, and I strongly encourage you to visit!
Lucy Sparrow has also done a festive take over of MEATliquor Bloomsbury. Under the canopy of the towering tree, diners will dig into festive specials including the Santa's Little Gobbler burger, featuring fried turkey, red-eye mayonnaise, sprout slaw & cranberry hot sauce, along with sides of pigs in blankets with mustard BBQ sauce and Xmac 'n' cheesier with cranberry hot sauce. A perfect spot to eat after you have been shopping!
