We, of course, will be launching our new Paper Hearts collection - which we are super happy about - and there are a number of other lovely bits and pieces we suggest you check out...

Molly-Made, With Love

If we go off the amazing outfits she has fashioned for herself over at her delightful blog then I am expecting some very cute vintage inspired designs from this talented lass.

The Raisin Did It

For quality, quirky kids wear you can't beat the cute designs of the lovely Mia and her label The Raisin Did It. Great vintage and new fabrics and sweet simple designs.

 Sian Thomas

This sydney-based ceramicist is terrifically talented. I have bought many pieces from her over the years - a berry colander, serving dishes, butter dish etc. - but what I'm really coveting is one of these gorgeous teapots...

Attia

The go-to stall for sweet little Christmas gifts for all and sundry. I intend to add to my modest collection of their hand-carved spoons again this year!

Cory Child

Good colours, nifty designs...what else can I say?!

Beth Emily

She designed the current flyer for the Finders Keepers and every one of her delicate watercolour images is just as beautiful. Trying to choose a favourite...

 

Sirens Swimwear

Perhaps it's time to invest in a new piece of swimwear?! Classic shapes in classic fabrics from Sirens Swimwear.

The Horse

I have been mulling over a pair of exquisite The Horse shoes for some time - I fall down once I have to make a choice. I reccomend you all mull over the same decision.

Ginny & Jude Designs

An obvious choice, no? So much to choose from, I'm already fretting about what headpiece/outfit combination to wear...

see you there!

Photoshoot - in the can!

On this Sunday just past, we bunkered down at Sun Studios in Alexandria to shoot our latest - and very soon to be released - collection p a p e r  h e a r t s. The weather mattered not for a change (hurrah! As it rained on and off for most of the morning!) and we all cruised through the day to an odd-ball collection of jazz and hula music on our portable record player.

We had some splendid people at our disposal helping make everything possible, so our warmest and most thankful wishes are extended to:

The incredibly patient and talented Lyndal Irons (our resident photographer - we simply won't shoot without her!)...her ability to re-create the specific ideas we have in our heads is phenomenal!

For the first time we were joined by the spectacularly skilled hands of hair and make-up artist extraordinaire Tania Bowers. Victory rolls, porcelain skin and a cheeky pout - I think you'll all agree the results speak for themselves!

And lastly but certainly never least, our beautiful bombshell of a model; Gabrielle Dillon. Her quirky sense of humour added that crucial joie de vivre to every shot.
