Teacups & Spectacles - Illustration and Design Teacups & Spectacles is an illustration, design, and craft blog following Karen Taylor as she navigates the world of stationery and knitting.

Weclome to Teacups & Spectacles. I'm a doodler and a knitter, and maker of delightful things. My naive and adorable doodles have a mid-century flare. They feature simple pleasures: enjoying a cup of tea, taking a bike ride, enjoying a treat, or a bunch of fresh cut flowers. They’re body-positive, delightful, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. Stay tuned to see where you can purchase greetings cards. Thanks for stopping in!

Sweet snuggling mice in a little tin bed. I have been enjoying working with felt and making tiny, real things lately — the best stress reliever. Freddie was delighted and said they were “adorable.”

How on earth has she been sitting on my iPad and not been shared? Well, even if she has, I love her and she deserves another look.😅

I always have such complex feelings about September. I love back to school, routines, cooler, non-sunscreen requiring and shade finding days. But the darkness is HARD. I feel like summer has so many more hours in it. But the autumn and winter feel more homey and crafty, so I’ll lean into that part (and try not to hibernate too hard!)

I’ve been playing around with creating things that kids could make or decorate themselves. This little robot was a late night project. It feels so good to play, create and just make things without the pressure. 🧡

Things look a little different now… 💕😂 I swear there are at least two hotwheels, at least a handful of rocks and a dash of sand in my purse at all times. 😅

Little driftwood memorial I painted for our sweet Felix, the bestest and lowest furry friend around. I still miss his little jingle when visiting my parents and all the ankle kisses.
