I’ve only gone and made a bloody MAGAZINE! I mean, if you ask me, I think it is way more than a simple magazine. It’s a mix between a book, a journal, an art project…It’s hard to define Spellbound but I think that’s what makes it so fun. Now, do you trust that beautiful things are coming? Then, order your copy of Spellbound and you will receive your bundle of joy in the post. If you’re not convinced yet (whaaaat?), see below for more details on what’s inside Spellbound! Mel x
What’s inside Spellbound? Well, you can expect 164 pages of inspiring conversations, beautiful photography, fun illustrations by moi (and others!), resources and more.Oh, I almost forgot to say that it is VERY colourful. I think you’re going to like it. (What do you mean, I’m biased?!).
Joy,Planet, Mind In this first issue, I decided to take on 3 themes that I deeply care about: Joy, Planet and Mind. The aim is to raise awareness around different issues our precious Earth is facing, try to de-stigmatise various mental health issues and spread a lot of joy along the way. Sounds like a big - but hopefully exciting? - programme, I know! Because I couldn’t possibly do this all on my own, I reached out to some amazing people - experts in their own fields - to have beautiful, inspiring, fun and educating conversations.
Sustainability Spellbound is printed by Park Communications on FSC® certified Arcoprint Milk paper. Park works to the EMAS certification and its Environmental Management System is certified to ISO 14001. 100% of the inks used are vegetable oil based and 95% of press chemicals are recycled for further use.
I’m choosing to offset the carbon produced to print Spellbound by becoming a Climate Partner. This means I’m paying a bit more to be able to erase Spellbound’s carbon footprint. I was able to pick any project I wanted, but obviously (if you know me, you know I love the sea), the project I’m supporting is all about keeping plastic waste from entering our Oceans. I will talk about this a bit more inside Spellbound!
