Rainy Day Sewing

The rain in Sydney continues to fall and as luck would have it, I am inside for a change, working on a quilt for a magazine story. Happy Friday. x

Twiggy Wall Art

A great idea for adding texture to a plain wall.... just scout around your neighbourhood for palms throwing down seeds and pods, that's all this is. Looks like a little tree doesn't it?

Autumn Prints

I was very excited to find these prints as part of a set for only $2.50 each at my local op shop. They instantly made me think of Autumn so I've started creating a few autumn pieces. The candle holders can be made easily by cutting up thin tree logs. Just use your drill and a spade bit to make way for the tealight. For the garland I used jute string and hot glued some leaves back-to-back along. The little log rounds came in a pack of too many to count from Spotlight. Cute to hang or simply draped along a shelf like this.

My Outdoor Studio

Today I'm busy working on a stack of hand made Christmas decorations for a magazine and because its a perfect, blue sky day here's my set up on my back deck. Not a bad spot for a little creative play!

Logies Win

A big congratulations to all of my friends from Better Homes and Gardens for our 2010 Logie Award for best lifestyle show. It was an amazing night, very glamorous and lots of fun to catch up with everyone. All of the girls looked stunning as always. For us it was lovely to swap our usual work gear for a little glitz and sparkle. Well done everyone!
