On - Friday, 27 November 2009

I came across the work of MonAlisa Design at a craft fair a few months ago and I've been meaning to post something. With Christmas just round the corner make sure you check out her etsy store, my favourites are the beautiful baby mobiles and birds (called tweets)- so cute.

Find of the week: water stopping water

On - Monday, 23 November 2009

If there is one thing I really hate it's a boring ugly old plug spoiling a nicely designed kitchen or bathroom. Well, finally someone came up with a solution. Water stopping water is definitely on my shopping list.

I'm so pleased with the way this shot turned out just had to share. Busy building the wedding stationery website over on 'i do' it yourself, and putting together some groups shots of the ranges. Not bad for a first attempt, off to do the rest.

I'm a big fan of messing around with the old eye chart design, and I'm loving this screen print by New Zealand artist Brad Novak. An eye chart for Aotearoa. Very cool.
