DIY from my friends

April 7th, 2011

Kate from the lovely design*sponge put me onto these today, Kokedama or Japanese moss balls.

 

She found a great DIY of them from Aura Scaringi’s blog Miss Moussetache. Check it out, on design*sponge here, or on Miss Moussetache here.  

If you feel like it you can make me a few too, they would look lovely in my garden.

Totally excited for finders keepers.

February 10th, 2011

Ok the bloggers block is definately gone. I was just having a browse around the interwebs and got totally excited becasue the finders keepers market is coming back to Melbourne and soon! So get your diarys out and ready and mark of a day to have a look.  the 26th and 27th of March at Shed 4 Victoria Harbour.

 

 

This will be the 2nd market that they have held in Melbourne, and let me tell you, it was FANTASTIC last time. Best market I have been to in a very very long time.

One day I might even have a stall of my own there.

I have developed a crush

January 31st, 2011

On Friday I blogged to you about Atelier Abigail and Ahern, and the most excellent of lamps that you can get from them. Well on further investigation i have fallen in love with everything that is Atelier Abigail and Ahern. The interior design service, the awsome products that she sells and the blog that she writes. I love that she does not believe in painting all the surfaces in a house white,I love the homely feel that her interior design style gives to me, and I love the quirkiness.

 

 

 

Do you have a crush now too?

 I don’t usually like to blog from another blog, but when I saw these on yukkie the other day, I knew I just had to blog about them. From Atelier Abigail Ahern in the UK. The most exciting of all is that they ship to Australia. Yay!

Check these out!!

Once upon a time. I went out shopping

January 20th, 2011

While I was out shopping I found a cool little thing called Doily News. They are doilys made from unsold newspapers. How cool are they! Use them as coasters, decorations, even to decorate your wrapping paper, your imagination is your only limitation.
