Introducing the Earl Of Sandwich..

new Sandwich ring $65 sizes M-P

i've been busy making things for the markets (which are coming up very soon!) & one of them is this new addition to the rings, the Sandwich (maybe i made it cause i can't eat wheat anymore? boohoo..bread how i loved you!!)
This one is a white bread sambo, buttered, with a filling (ham & lettuce?) & it's a warm day so it's slid apart a little.
named after Lord Sandwich. (was originally going to be called Cut Lunch until i found out that it meant something else entirely!)
ooh, it's not on the website yet but if you want one, just send me an email :)

PS. & Hooray for my newest stockist Design A Space in Windsor, Vic!

Frankie and Johnny were lovers..(lucky Johnny)

i'm a little behind on this one, Frankie has been out for a couple of weeks but i must confess that i've never scanned anything before so this is my first attempt! (i'm a lover not a fighter;-))
but the exciting news is that the lovely ladies have included the new 'morning tea rings'!!
(the set is actually up for grabs, so if you enter, they could be yours!)
Also, while you're there, do check out the very clever Pip's crafty project!...she's got so many good ideas, that one.

oh what a nice surprise! Michelle from Flaunt gave me the tip-off..if you look closely you may be able to see the 'saved you a seat' necklace!
Hooray for Real Living!

NKOTB-Eco Innovators

before..

and after!

look at this! how beautiful?!
Leyla from Eco Innovators has opened a brand-new store in one of melbourne's old news stands!
(for a long time i hadn't realised what was under all the posters, it was such a lovely surprise to see that it open up like a Tardis)
This tiny store on Swanston St sells eco-designed & produced products including Betty Jo, Keep Cups, Mucke, Nearly Roadkill and many more..
Maybe a good place to visit for chrissy presents?
ps: and if you make eco-produced products, maybe a good place to approach?

Eco Innovators Showcase

new stockists..

how beautiful is Allison's shop?!

and more lovely shots..(maybe some Beci Orpin cushions?)

the good scissors, sharpening & ball of wool ring in their new home!

oops, i've been so hectic lately that i've neglected to mentioned the new stockists!
I'm proud to announce... Lark's lovely & newly opened shop in Daylesford (how beautiful does it look? - i could just move in there:)) & the National Gallery of Australia Shop in Canberra! YAY!

my morning so-far

Starting point - 2 fresh water pearls & 2 saw-pierced,drilled & engraved cuff link backs with a little chain= cufflinks!
Pearl cufflinks in grey or white $150

This morning i got to make some cufflinks 'for the ladies..'
These are small pearls with Sterling silver, very understated & perhaps a nice change from wearing your boyfriend's man-style ones!

"that horse needs glasses!"

ahh...public holidays! don't you love it when sport throws you a freebie?
i went into work yesterday (melbourne's unofficial public holiday) & even though the city was buzzing, my building was deserted & when i tried to order some supplies, all the local ones were closed!
after saturday's (very respectable) effort, we're just having a quiet day today & i'm trying to resist the urge to go into work...
