Zine Swap exhibition // private view

had a fantastic time at the Zine Swap private view at the Orange dot gallery in north London yesterday. oh my, there were just so many amazing zines and they've even set up a swap box there and you could bring your zines to swap so i took some of mine and did quite well with my exchange :) the exhibition goes on until 25th june so if you get a chance do go, it's wonderful. i'm now inspired and ready to make a start on my next zine! speaking of zines, just finished off a special post for Doodlers Anonymous and it's going to be all about zines, including pictures from my zine little library and a compilation of my favorites. keep your eyes peeled for that!
and of course, have an ace weekend :)
update // pssst the DA post i mentioned is now live. hope you enjoy it!

So lovely to see a couple of our zines in your library. You have a mighty fine collection.

so interesting to get a look over your shoulder. Seeing zines and artist books I always get so tempted..(diy of course!) . But I have to remember that the day has only 24 hours and that in order to get anywhere at all - I need to FOCUS ... not start getting into something new!

I wish I lived near London, I love zines so much! Sadly I'm not even in the right country...but at least I got to see them on here :)

(Forgot to mention earlier that I like your new banner... if only I bumped into more ducks sporting bowties in my day.)
