First Prize for us!

By Anonymous -







We pulled out all the stops and were pleased as punch with our stall at Magnolia Square. I unscrewed my old (more shabby then chic) dressing table, squeezed it into my car and screwed it up again at the fair, added a persian rug, roses in tea pots, pin boards, vintage suitcases and all our lovely hand made products. It paid off and we were most flattered to receive the award for best visual display, even more flattered as it was judged by Aimee who is a stylist of note and who has a beautiful store of her own called tiger and peacock. It was also lovely to briefly meet Lucy from the Design Files, who has done a feature on Magnolia Square on her fantastic blog. Hooray!! Our etsy store was briefly closed for a few days but it is up and running again and all our prints from the market are on sale there or on made it (AUS)or on felt (NZ).

That is why we have listed these pretty tags in our Etsy shop . They are digital downloads for your own personal use. For best results print onto thick matte craft paper (Canon do a great Matte Photo Paper in 170g/m), cut out with craft knife, round corners if you have a corner cutter and finally use a single hole punch to make a whole for your own pretty ribbon. Because we love gift giving so much we thought we would do a little give away! Simply leave a comment on our blog and you could be in line for receiving any 2 digital downloads for free! Giveaway open until Friday the 2nd November.

My Home in the October Country Style magazine!

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!
