Hello from a distance – new (ish) stationery


I launched this stationery range in October, but didn't get around to popping it onto the blog.

With email, the web and technology making it so easy to connect with loved ones from a distance, getting something delivered in the post seems to have become mostly about getting bills and catalogues. I wanted to created a set that would make people want to start writing to friends and family who live far away.

I've created tags, cards, letterheads and wrapping paper using the airmail motif. I collected and attached used stamps, of animals with wings including birds and butterflies to carry on the air theme.
It's all wrapped up in a lovely red box. Available at Sweets Workshop.

Christmas wrapped up

Found this dusty retro wrapping paper at the Bower
in Marrickville on the weekend.
I think I'll be hanging onto it... everyone else can have their
gifts wrapped in new paper.
Merry Christmas.

Crafty Cuts for Christmas

I raided my fabric collection last night with the intention to make some Christmas gifts. I have had big plans for every piece I have ever purchased, found or been given... perhaps 2011 will see me realise my haberdashery dreams (with a little time on my side).

Bear with Bakelite Beats

A new member to my musical bears. This one has a taste for the classics, donning a 1940's bakelite radio. He was created to make the bears a foursome, a special request from my aunt. (They're in the post Christine!)
