2012 Calendar coming soon!

I have been rather busy lately designing a 2012 calendar- here's a sneak preview!!

This calendar has been created for enjoying the simple things in life such as taking a road trip, writing a letter, growing a veggie garden or making your own raspberry jam. 

Inspired by days gone by this calendar has 12 beautiful hand drawn illustrations; each accompanied with their own recipe for a year filled with good food, friends and experiences. 

Available from early October!

new designs on felt!

I spent a rather wintery weekend updating my felt shop- pop along for a look!

to market!

I've got all my badges, bows, notebooks and more ready for tomorrow's uni market, don't foget to come along and say hi!

I'll be there from about 9am-3pm (the weather isn't looking so good so I imagine it will be inside) hope to see you there :)

snow!

Its been pretty cold here in Dunedin today, with a sprinkling of snow even at one point! I am hoping for some better weather at the uni market on Thursday (though if not i'll still be there inside)- i've been busy sorting packaging for all the new badges and bows I have made like the one pictured above :)

notebooks!

Here are the notebooks I've been busy decorating with upcycled papers!

The rain cloud is made from the backs of playing cards and the flowers are from some sort of cross stitch pattern. There are another four designs in the set, six in all :)

I'm a big notebook collector so I'm not sure I can bring myself to sell these...

ta da!

I have been busy making bows with 16 new designs now created and more on the way.

 I will be putting these in JAVA Hair Studio (Dunedin), on my felt shop, and also at the Otago Uni market day in just two weeks time!

There are some notebook designs in the works too- I'll give you a sneak peek when they're ready!
