I haven't had much time these days, so it's still a work in progress, but this is what I've made 'til now. Hope I get some more pics before the deadline, in which case I will update you here.

We are talking Art Deco, Arts and Craft and Art Nouveau

 :( I hate to sound randomly nitpicky/unhelpful, but art nouveau is a separate style from art deco that was popular around the turn of the 20th century, about 30 years before art deco was in fashion. They're pretty much polar opposites. It's not a 1920s thing, except as a leftover from previous times.

Thank you for your help everyone - we have what we need and will now put the magazine together
