Welcome to my site! I am a cat-loving creative with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design and over 30 years design experience. I work in my lovely oak-framed garden studio in the the Hampshire countryside, designing anything print related including magazines, catalogues, brochures, banners, adverts, branding, point of sale, flyers, logos, packaging, book design and more. I am happy to help you with any project, large or small. Please click on the Portfolio tab to see more of my work and if you're interested in working with me, please drop me a line, it would be lovely to hear from you!
I have freelanced as a graphic designer for many years and as an antidote to being glued to a computer screen I started making stained glass which then evolved to include fused glass. I love the magic of playing with colour, light and translucency and the excitement of seeing what comes out of the kiln. My range of glass art is inspired by my love of colour and the beauty of the natural world around me.

I have experience of working with Annie in both a formal 9 to 5 environment and as a freelance wonder-whizz extraordinaire - and if you did not get the hint there - she is simply fantastic. She works well to a brief, but also has the ability to try something a bit different. With my independent yarn shop, I knew that I wanted to evoke a welcoming and inclusive vibe and Annie helped deliver that perfectly. From my logo to my shop frontage, ads, shoppers, business cards and goodness knows what else is to come - Annie has delivered gorgeous, on brand, on time design work. I can't wait to work with Annie again as we start to get digital in 2020!
Annie Childs worked with us on designing labels and graphics for our business Halfpint Vegan Dairy. She developed innovative, stylish and creative designs for a whole range of labels. Annie was able to translate the feelings we wanted to create into images to help sell our products. Always helpful, always able to assist. I feel that Annie’s thoughtful and stylish contributions, really helped us market our products to the right people!
We were very impressed with the professional layout and design of our booklet. Annie had grasped the essence of what we wanted and produced a design that was clear, aesthetically pleasing and will hopefully encourage local people to explore our village and hidden trees.
