Thank you Natascha!

I receieved a PDF file of Natascha's Christmas Gift Tags yesterday and they are just so gorgeous. I first fell in love with Natascha's work when I saw her Red Riding Hood Shadow Box and now I make the trip across to Natascha S.Rosenberg's blog daily. She is an absolute delight and her Flickr pages never fail to inspire! Have a look at the collages in her shop too. I just love them. Thanks again Natascha.

Things I have made.

I'm very excited I just learnt a new trick with this mosaic maker from Flickr Toys. Here are some of the things I've made recenlty. You can take a closer look here.

Liana Kabel

On a recent trip to Queensland I was lucky enough to meet Liana Kabel at the MOB (Museum of Brisbane) Shop. Liana has been awarded the CREATIVE SPARKS GRANT from the Brisbane City Council and Arts Queensland to create and promote and new range of contemporary jewellery. Liana's father was a jeweller and mother..a Tupperware Lady. A lot of her pieces are made from Tupperware and the colours are just fantastic. Take a look at her shop and pick yourself up one for Christmas..I did! If you're as fascinated as me by Liana's work check out her Flickr page.

Hercynia Silva

Jarrah Dining Table, by Michael Conole

Hercynia Silva is a great new store located at 656 Smith Street, Clifton Hill. It's just opened and its owners are Michael Conole a wood carver and Viveka de Costa and artist and Graphic Designer. Their store is a sanctuary for all things wooden as Hercynia Silva refers to the endless forest that blocked the advance of the Romans into Germania! You can visit the store by catching the 86 tram from Bourke St or visit the website here.
