Perth Upmarket Piccies from Today

Hello all!

I have tired feet and a tired head, but had lots of fun, lots of nice people bought stuff from me and I got some free soaps for saving some ladies from their wind-prone sign with magic red tape.

Gosh it was so windy.

I made a whole set of new displays for this market, I've been itching to do it for ages but havn't been able to until uni finished.

Plus a revamp of my OSIER sign and I brought my lil' school desk that debuted at MOTL.


Alritey then, I'm gonna go get to work on all the custom orders I got today PLUS the two wholesale works I've got due. Gaaaah! Will post about them tomorrow :)

On the 5th Last Day of Spring...

...I went a wandering about the garden...

caterpillars eating the last of the peas, and a cactus flower

bees enjoying their favourite season and the plum tree getting into gear

the daisy bush looking pleased with itself and matching very well with my vintage sundress, and baby mangoes beginning to grow

baby olives and our native garden loving all the rain and sun its been getting

Hope you enjoyed the tour, tell me whats been happening in your garden :)

Christmas is Coming at William Topp

Here's what will be appearing at William Topp in the next few days... make sure you pop into the city and have a look! Kate (the lovely lady who owns the store!) has ordered a pile of goodies from me to make your Christmas shopping easier! She also stocks plenty of other amasing designers from accross Australia PLUS some awesome vintage finds...

If you'd like a bigger range, or really want to get your Christmas shopping out of the way and buy all indie-designed and handmade this Christmas (I mean, something WA made is a lot more precious and meanigful than something produced in a Chinese sweatshop... Am I right?) I'll be at the Christmas Upmarket this Sunday, so make sure you pop down and have a look at all the amasing gifts on offer... and if you come and visit me, mention this blog post and you can have a 10% "special friends" discount! Oh my gosh!
Here's a piccy of last Perth Upmarket in June/July sometime...

And here is the link to Kate's William Topp website.

Hope to see you on the weekend!

The French are Definitly Cool

While surfing last night, I clicked a magic link. This magic link provided me with both a purpose for my seldom-if-ever-used web cam, and a feeling of being in Amelie...

Budget? Whats a Budget?

Hmmmm, I'm thinking of dropping my Yen subscription for a Peppermint subscription instead... Two issues left on my Yen subscription, and just signed up for a year of Peppermint. So far the only other mag I subscribe is Frankie...




What do you guys think?

Weird how it Happens

I was just photographing one of my typewriters for my vintage store, and had to move another one out of the place where I usually photograph my vintage stuff. So I photographed the new one, and then put the old one back as well as I needed my chair to sit on and it was hogging it. I sat down and wrote out my etsy listing, and looked up at the two sitting togther... it was like I'd interrupted their conversation! It looked so sweet I had to take a photo...



Who can guess what they're saying to each other?

oh, and if you want him (he's the one on the left) the link is here.

Noa Noa - be still my Heart

Oh my lordy.

This stuff is really nice...

... and it has, hands down, the most beautiful styling and photography I have even seen in my 20 years...

Thank you dearly Haute Design Blog.

Take a look at it all here, and their latest stuff on their website.

They even do kids stuff. Almost makes me want to change my mind about not pro-creating.



But not quite.


p.s. Niina! "Pugs not Drugs!" :)
