I know its Friday, and your end of the week, but I am not off till Monday.
And I am reminiscing about the long weekend, which I worked on really, but then went to a wedding up at Treachery Beach with a bunch of Aussies, Canucks, Kiwi's, Scots and Dolphins. Beautiful.
I am also obsessed with my hipstamatic camera, as you can tell. It just creates a little bit more magic.
Running around without shoes on in the mud, sand and glowstick pathed roads have left me feeling pretty coldy today. So I am drinking coffee and hot toddies and getting on with my orders to go to my stockists in Melbourne and Sydney.
Can I also recommend going to Carriageworks this weekend. A free space with music and beers, the bands that are playing are really great. Beautiful country folky music. If I wasn't in the shop tomorrow I would be there! Go on go get a french crepe from the markets and sit on a lovesac and enjoy some live stuff. xx

Latest collection on models etc...

Happy long weekend everyone.
Do you like these little out takes?
We are all models aren't we. Well we are all modelling my clothes!
I am pleased to say that I am taking a few days off over Easter.
To rest.
To play.
To reflect.
To surf.
To be still
To get some lovin.
I hope you all get a bit of lovin this weekend!
I hope to go here

Monday Making

Well its Friday today.
But here is a little show of what Jen and I made on Monday.
We both had the day off.
The sun was shining.
Inspiration was to be found in the land of Jewellery.
We made talismans.

Metalab Jewels

Exhibition "Bad Beasts Do Not Harm Me"

Natalia Milosz-Piekarska

Karla Way

Jen and I snuck into Metalab yesterday even though it was officially closed. I have been meaning to go to see this exhibition for a while and lucky for me they had extended the dates for showing. The works are stunning, beautifully hung and delicious colours.

These Melbourne Ladies also have a gorgeous sense of humour creating sprouting garlic rings and pepper infused resin to ward off those evil spirits. 

Go before it closes!

Jen and I were so inspired we had a little craft making project of our own, check out Fridays Post.

Friday.
