It’s been a busy few weeks on the Wingfinger website, with a few additions, changes and updates…
- Gallery pages are now updated with work from the last few months.
- Two new archives have appeared in the Playpen – a collection of team birthday card pictures, and some illustrations sets used for our own marketing campaigns.
- We now have a section of the Playpen celebrating Wingfinger work that didn’t quite make it.
- And finally, we were surprised to find a completely unsolicited shout-out to our site in the Guardian last month as part of an article on creative industry in Leeds. Thank you, Guardian.
Our Playpen mini-site continues to grow as a place for fun things, archives and Wingfinger mad experiments. If we remember to do it, we will post here when new material goes up (we made finding your way in from the main site a bit more of a challenge).
As fun as it is to work on our own website, we do much prefer working on other people’s – and we are currently looking for new website design clients. In fact, we’re launching a special offer, more on this soon…

We had a birthday in the office this week and, as is Wingfinger custom, a special birthday card was created. (We’re hoping to put up a gallery of wild and wacky Wingfinger birthday cards in the Playpen, eventually…)
The exciting birthday present accompanying the card was a nifty piece of guerilla gardening design from a company called Kabloom. The Seedbom is basically a (grenade-shaped) lump of clay, plant food and flower seeds, ready to be thrown into your garden, your neighbour’s terrible backyard, or the local wasteground-come-fly tipping site. There is apparently enough planty goodness in the Seedbom to give the flowers the flying start they need.
Kabloom say that the Seedbom is manufactured from recycled, environmentally-friendly and locally-sourced materials, all of which we are fans of at Wingfinger!
There is more information on the Kabloom Facebook page, and you can buy your own four-pack of Seedboms at Folksy.com. (An Easter egg alternative, perhaps?)
