When we heard that local illustrator Johanna Basford was due to release a new colouring book, Worlds of Wonder we were delighted for her. Having already stocked some of her previous books in store and online we knew this would be a great addition to her body of work, but when Johanna offered to stock Indi + Will with some exclusive signed copies for sale she didn’t have to ask twice, it was a straight up YES! We were absolutely thrilled to support such a local talent, as were our customers with the first batch selling out incredibly fast! The book itself has taken a high spot ranking on the UK Non-Fiction Paperbacks and we can understand why as it is such a gorgeous book and can appreciate how much time has been spent creating such a piece.
After the year we have all endured it is safe to say that adventure is what many of us are craving and with this in mind Johanna designed Worlds of Wonder to transport the colourist on a journey through wondrous worlds allowing your imagination to roam and creativity to flow. Allowing yourself a moment of serenity as you travel through dreamy scenes within the book is truly calming and peaceful. We have enjoyed seeing various images of colourist’s work so far and their own take on their personal voyage through Worlds of Wonder. With Johanna having such a huge global following we were overwhelmed with the orders received for the books and enjoyed seeing how far and wide they have travelled around the world. We are so thankful to all our customers for purchasing a book and your support of an independent business, you all mean so much to Indi + Will.
We know that there were many left disappointed by the quick sell out of the highly sought after signed copies of Worlds of Wonder, therefore Johanna offered (much to our delight) to sign some more copies to stock in hope that others can “bag themselves” a signed book. We have been so grateful to Johanna for taking the time to do this for us in order for our lovely customers to purchase a piece of illustrative history.
Keep your eyes peeled for more signed copies to go on sale real soon (they come beautifully wrapped in tissue paper) and don’t forget to add your choice of colouring pens or pencils to your basket when ordering your next colouring book, they are available on the online store now.
Thanks for taking the time to read our blog, team Indi + Will xxx

Hugo Loves Tiki is a line of European-lifestyle inspired children's and women's clothing from designer Cheyenne Couch. Her aesthetic includes bold graphics, European languages and unique child-like drawings.
Hugo Loves Tiki is based in Indiana, in the Midwestern United States and began with DIY screen printed t-shirts that resembled foreign language flash cards. These prints have become part of Cheyenne’s signature. It is her hope that children who wear these flash card shirts become more interested in other languages and travelling outside of their own country to see how the rest of the world lives.
The collection is full of fun, quirky, bold prints and we love them all with striped playsuits, Kitty and Gummy Bear printed dresses, a fun Gelato print and RAD shorts, t-shirts and sweaters all just so fab and fun for summer!

Scamp & Dude are a fun childrenswear brand who find inspiration for their playfully contemporary designs from superheroes, using adorable slogans and characterful imagery to form the basis of their exceptionally crafted children’s apparel and interior collections.
From something dark came something light
Scamp & Dude was created by Jo Tutchener-Sharp, founder and previous MD of Beauty Seen PR.
In October 2015 Jo’s life took a difficult turn when she suffered a brain haemorrhage. She had to leave her children for a lengthy stay in hospital to undergo life threatening brain surgery.
Every parent understands the feeling you get when you have to leave your child, whether it be a business trip or first day at school. That knot in the stomach and the ache in the heart.
It was this moment that inspired Jo to create a brand that helps children feel more secure when apart from their loved ones, and Scamp & Dude was born.
The Superhero Sleep Buddy is at the core of the collection. These stylish shaped cushions are available in two adorable superhero characters, a cute bunny and dinosaur. Even though they look super cute, the pair are bursting with special superpowers to watch over the child at night and keep them safe. For every Superhero Sleep Buddy sold another is donated to a vulnerable child via chosen charities Don't Forget the Kids, Grief Encounter and the leading London children’s hospital.
The Superhero Sleep Buddy also contains a pocket for photographs of loved ones, to keep them close by. This could be of someone not with them anymore, a parent working away on business, a grandparent, or simply a family photograph to comfort the child nightly.
Why use organic cotton?
