Mollie Makes - Issue 108

Can you believe it’s already mid July!? This year is flying by and it feels like only yesterday we were bringing you issue 100. Well fast forward seven months and we’re here presenting issue 108 to you in all its summery glory. We’ve christened this mag the tasty issue. There’s delicious looking things like crochet freakshakes and fruit face cloths. And, there’s tasty granola popsicle recipes which you can eat on your funky new picnic blanket after harvesting your crop with your new trug.

It’s also a delicious explosion of color this issue. Sunset skies, party alpacas and dangly bead earrings all add to the colorful world of 108.

Meet Hannah Davis (Wolf & Moon) and Ciara Elliot

In issue 108 we met two very talented women from two different design disciplines! We had a wander around Hannah Davis’ dreamy creative workspace and talked about her jewelry line Wolf & Moon. This interview is a must read as Hannah explains her work process, her career progression and – most importantly – why handmade jewelry is so special.

Then we were lucky enough to meet Ciara Elliot, journalist and interior designer, at her eclectic Georgian home. As you can only imagine from an interior designer’s home, Ciara’s space blew us away. Pick up a home of issue 108 to see this beautiful pad and get some inspo for your own.
