For the last few weeks we have been part of a team of people, led by Sarah Unwin, making props for last night's Day of the Dead at Ruby Lounge in Manchester. It was fun work and it really paid off as the space looked amazing! Making sugar skulls, graves and shrines, and placing hundreds of flowers, we transformed the place into a Mexican celebration of death!
The projects we've been working on over the past couple months have inspired us to make scaled-down, wearable versions of our props. At the risk exposing how nerdy we are, we wanted to share some photos of the things we've been making during our tea breaks.
Here are some of our interpretations of the Bolo Tie (minus the tie part), and a few necklaces. We've also been whipping up tote bags, bum bags and rucksacks, and we'll be posting pictures of them soon.
If any of these catch your eye drop us an email at sacredgeometrists(at)gmail.com
Our Etsy shop is up and running too! We've got t-shirts, neck ties, bow ties and more - all of it hand dyed and hand made.
We're In! Welcome to Sacred Geometry's new studio...one door down from our old studio! We've even tidied up for you, though you can't really tell. We're mucky pups.
Sitting in front of that big old projector is our good friend and new studio mate Alex Humphreys. You might also know her as John Butcher or half of Pumping Iron.
Come drop in for a cup of coffee or beer, our door is always open. Except when we're not in.

We're in love with her work and are flattered that she's asked us to get involved in this upcoming shoot, which will feature the beautifully melancholic Nadine Shah. Give her a listen, you'll be hooked.
