A DIY Life…
Hey, look up there - it's a new tag-line! (If you're reading this in your feed-reader, pop on over to the blog to find out what the hell I'm on about.) It came to me as I was trying to get to sleep last night - as many good ideas do - and I managed to stop myself from...
Trying a new photography style… what do *you* think?
Hi lovelies! Well, I *had* planned to have my review post up this morning... but yesterday, unbeknownst to me, the shower man came to fit the new shower. Hence, I couldn't have a shower until after 6pm last night - no video recording yesterday! (Don't you hate having...
#CraftyBizChat Tonight! 8pm AEST…
Yes, it's ON! Tonight is the first regular #CraftyBizChat on twitter. We're going to be talking about a different Crafty Biz topic each week, starting with... well, you'll have to come along to find out! I'm hoping this will grow into a weekly event that allows us...
Wonderful Things
Gosh, it's been a while since I did one of these! I really must get back to doing them weekly, because although I share lots of lovely things daily on the *bespoke* blog, I like to do a weekly roundup of my favourite things from the interwebs. Also, I'm aware that...
C’mon, pull up a chair and settle in…
Just a little reminder that you've got less than a week to snag a Sponsor Spot for September! I've had a stack of lovely, super-dooper sponsors sign up, but I have a few spots left - especially small spots (only $15!) and I also have the XL spot available (you get...
Room Makeover ~ A new way to display your small pieces of art…
So, if you're one of my tweeps, you might know that Nick and I have been making-over our studio/lounge/kitchen room. Before we went to the UK, Nick got our second room - which is now our bedroom - done, and the old room was looking worse for wear. The floor was...
Sometimes, something just stops me in my tracks…
Like this image. I don't know why - perhaps it's the muted nature of the colours, perhaps it's the sublime blend of hues... but I think I could possibly stare at this for hours. Honestly, I really can't put my finger on the undefinable 'something' that captures my...
Help me name my new dress form! Prizes for the winning name… {CLOSED}
She's here! I was insanely pleased last week when my lovely new dress form arrived! She is everything I wished for, and I can't wait to put her to work in her new position as my jewellery (and possibly clothes??) model. I took her through a bit of a trial run to see...
8 Steps to Turn your Passion into a Successful Business
The other weekend, Vicki from In.cub8r The Valley here in Brissie invited me to be the speaker at the shop's first birthday party! It was a pretty lovely and informal event, so I didn't talk too much - but while thinking about what I would say I came up with this...
Sometimes…
Just a little reminder - for you and for me 🙂 I'm off to the forest for my friend's birthday this weekend - and I plan on chilling out, chatting, and playing board games. Oh, we're so crazy! Will you be taking a rest? I hope so! Image from Friends of Type via...
