Egg cozies

I'm preparing for easter, with some sweet little egg cozies, to keep your dippy egg warm for breakfast. These would also make wonderful Easter gifts, for those who want to cut back on the chocolate or want to give more than just eggs.
More colours to come. See in store

Australia Day

Man verses Kangaroo Gocco print by Michael Chsiung

Happy Australia day to all my Aussie readers. Sadly I have to work tonight, so no fireworks for me. :(

Vintage eye chart

Well.. heres is another item I'd like to add to my vintage wish list. A vintage eye chart. I love the typography. I found this one in this etsy store. But it is sold :( But thet do sell some other interesting signs.

I also found one on the David met Nicole website. But they are highly expensive. By the way if you live in Sydney, this shop is in Surry Hills and looks wonderful. I can't wait to check it out. Last time we tried it was shut.

Oh well, something to look out for.

Vintage lace purse

There's a new purse in store, and its one of a kind, because I used a piece of vintage lace I had on it.
Hope you like :)




And a little behind the scenes shot, or behind the 'seams' hehe

Pigeon Press

UK artist Pigeon Dave of Pigeon Press creates these cute, humorous, quirky illustrations. According to his myspace, his drawings 'come from the depths of a dark and humorous imagination with a tendency to be dry and profane, with some surreal elements.'

A cool change is coming

I have now listed my 'a change is coming' house illustration on etsy.

And don't forget, I still have a pocket calendar version available :) so you can carry it around in your wallet all year.

Myspace find- Kaori

I decided to start a new myspace page, as my old one was a mix of business and personal, I decided to make a strictly business page, to showcase and promote my work. Also with the new page editor 2.0, its so much easier to make your page look good, without being a genius at code.
Take a look.

While I was adding friends to my new page, I came across a lot of cool new artists and designers I hadn't seen before. I had forgotten how many cool things you could find on Myspace, if you look in the right places.

I thought I'd feature some of these people, who don't necessarily sell on etsy.

Today I'm going to share with you Kaori. A girl from Tokyo, who makes cute, quirky animal inspired pieces.
Including these quirky, yet adorable little kitties.
