Steve.

On Sunday I bought myself a present,a little green palm sander.
It's a bit magical,I'm in love & my sanders name is Steve.
Started making some more cheese boards today using the palm sander & it's made it a thousand times easier!
No more dying hands & fingers for me.

swing tags

been busy making new swing tags today for the clothing + homewares.

don't ask me WHY I chose to hand make my swing tags [200 for today],I'm a bit mental like that.

River Oak

The curse of being creative is that even if you're physically ill with the flu,your mind is still alive with ideas.

I crawled out of bed this morning to try & make my mums day a little lovely for mother dearest,but after half a day out in the elements & snotting through a box of tissues I had to go home & rest. I hate being sick. I hate being sick,feeling like crap & simultaneously being excited about a new project I want to start.

Armed with a new box of tissues,filled to the eyeballs with cold+flu tablets,rugged up like a paranoid Eskimo, I made my way to my studio to get stuck into making these little cheeseboards I've been wanting to make for a while now.

I got my hands on a beautiful piece of River Oak & thought it would be perfect to create these little cheesy delights.Um,my poor jigsaw blade just snapped,but this is the result so far! It's all trial & error,but I'm happy.

Drop by later when I've finished making these little fellas. Hopefully I'll still have fingers intact & am not in hospital with pneumonia.

My mother called me silver;part precious metal,part pirate.

To all the gorgeous Mama's out there I hope you all have a beautiful day!

To my own Mumzee,thanks for being you Mama.You send me crazy,but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Muchos love + light to all Mamas!

Salty

Yesterday morning I slicked on my bright red lipstick,threw on my black + white polka dot button up opshop dress & sat awkwardly in my studio as the gorgeous Claire from SALT magazine fired away her camera at me.

Claire is a journalist-photographer from the Sunshine Coast's own quarterly magazine Publication,SALT & approached me a little while back with interest on doing an article about me + my creative junk for SALT & I was completely honored to be part of it all.

I am a complete kook when it comes to having my photo taken & having to seriously talk about what I do,but Claire was so lovely & made me feel comfortable,so hopefully the article will be great! Mister Oddball was the true star,posing on cue & generally being a professional.

It will be featured in the Winter Edition of SALT which will be out towards the end of June,so keep your eyes wide open to nab yourself a copy & to laugh at me being awkward.

Huge thankyou once again to Claire + SALT!
