I couldn't help myself. After reading this Studio Home post I headed over to the Rollie website & bought these shoes.
Ive never bought shoes online... lets hope they fit!

collaboration

Castle joins forces with Gorman. Quite successfully I think :)

a spot of neon

Ohhhh...hello lovely! Castle releases another bedlinen gem!

talented hands

Bonnie & Neil hand make & hand print their table ware.

Its beautiful isnt it?

Sam I am

I could have posted many, many more beautiful images by Australian photographer Samuel Nolan, but perhaps you should go and look for yourselves :)

a few nice things

I am loving the colour combinations of these geometric prints

from I Need Nice Things.

And the dot?... well, it's just nice.

look in the third drawer down

Third Drawer Down fun!

Especially loving the monkey pillow.

good enough to eat!

Im sure I can safely say that food & jewellery are most females two favourite things.
But when combined... ummm, hello...could you put a smile on my face any faster?!
Melbourne based jeweller Lucy Folk has a beautiful collection of delightful jewellery pieces inspired by our favourite culinary delights.  See the entire collection here.


p.s i must tell you about my adventures(?!!!) in Tokyo.... stay tuned :)

upon a fold

upon a fold

Sometimes you Australians do it so well. Upon a Fold = paper heaven!

pony club

ponyrider

Am loving Ponyrider's products & photoshoot. I wonder who their stylist is?

andrea & sam...this ones for you!

etsy

I have to credit this find to Studio Home Creative, prints by Perth based Badhair Mountain.

Haha, I have to get some of these for my bogan friends. Ok, so they arent actually bogans... but if you're gonna live out west you're gonna get labelled!!

couture

flowers

Most of my childhood involved flowers. My parents were growers, & mum was a dab hand at throwing together bouquets. I, however, seem to have lucked out on that particular gene & all I can do is admire from afar.

Today, my admiration has fallen on Poppy & Rose's one off, original designs. Pretty? YEP!!

ink & spindle

You know, im not too sure if I like my header. I think I need to re-work it. What do you think?

A few things I like, however, are these finds from Ink & Spindle, a boutique screen-printing studio run by three Melbourne textile designers. The clutch is totally cute & Im loving that you can choose from three different clasp options or even request your own special design.

The limited edition fabrics & colours are calling my name...

 

Just as lovely are these cushions, printed using environmentally friendly, solvent free inks - which means its good for the environment. Yay!

Going off on a tangent, do you remember Captain Planet?!

my house, my castle

Ive been holding onto this image for a while now. Its from an old-ish issue of Inside Out (the same issue as the karen walker spread).

The reason Ive kept it, is because of the circle artwork on the wall, & guess what! I found who made it today...

The lovely embroidered piece is by Rachel Castle & her mother Jillian Patching (how appropriate are there surnames?!) from Castle bedlinens.

Each piece is a hand-stitched one-off, on vintage french linen. Definitely something worth treasuring.
