as well as some of these

 Come on down December 3rd remember the date and keep an eye on http://guerrillacraftmarket.blogspot.com/

finally setting up for online purchases

Because I'm such a damn luddite I've finally worked this bitch out. Now if I had enough money to put more than one thing up on Etsy I would, but I don't so I won't. However, the circle of cosumerism, the more you buy, the more shit I can sell. Whoo. My fingers are pretty calloused from band practice so It may take me a while. The tiki head necklaces (these beauties)

Will be up for grabs.

For now oyu Adelaideians should by my un-costly gear as a cute xmas present because they are good, and you'd be support the local arts, and they're good.

new idea

i've gone on a bit of a bender, researching the art of olde, no not the renaissance I got enough of that in art theory in uni (no it's ok, I understand perspective, no please don't go on)
No I mean flash art tattoos. For example, these pretties

or these

I have started doing embroidery after finding a huge embroidery ring in an op shop for $1. So far I have stitched on a ukulele with ribbons flowing behind it, I wosh I could upload a photo but my phone decided to shit itself, so I'll put up one later. I also made a brooch from this design I found of the craftivism collective site,

I added in the text (I do, thats all I eat!) and got some felt and turned it into this...

more to come... much more, probably more tattoos too

birds roses, bracelettes!!!

New stuff and a new place to find it! I have recently put my stuff into 'E' for ethel.

If you missed me at the gillies street on the 18th of september tis all good, you can find me around the city at
Bimbo- Rundle street,
Little worn Wardrobe- Peel street off Hindley street,
Irving Baby- Twin street off rundle mall,
and now 'E' for Ethel on Melbourne street!

Heres some new stock:

 

 

 

little fabric bracelet with vintage button from Dublin

new little birdy brooches available now

knitted roses available in many different colours and sizes

And heres how Gillies street was, I shared my stall with the lovely Emily who makes specialty plugs (for those with stretched ears) and jewellery, and beautiful Laura who does lots of cool stenciling.

 

more stuff and news and stuff coming soon xxo

New brooch series

I've started making a few brooches I like to call Sugar Bunnies, because the patterns remind me of Day of the dead art from Mexico. I've also started doing some cute squares with rabbits and elephants, I think I'll start doing a veggie series too but for now here are some cool photos of my new stuff. xxoo

The machine is alive!!

Nah it's ok, I'm not going corporate, My sewing machine is in full swing, so I'm able to make more brooches with less callouses and pin wounds. I've started doing more rabbits, because the shapes are quite simple, and I'm making some huge brooches for those who want something a little different. I've started doing a bit of embroidery too, one big brooch is of a sparrow with green tinges on its feathers, these are going to be a little more expensive though because embroidery is time consuming and painful for the eyes and back. Also I keep forgetting to wear my glasses.
On another note...
I was looking through my photos of Europe and found some jewellery thats at the British museum, some gold earrings, including stretchers.


gold necklace




Roman earrings

 Just thought they were cool xxo

Over the sea.... over the sea....

Having a good time abroad. I have bought so many things including bright blue boots and bright green slip on shoes, and we have visited many cities including:
London
Edinburgh (Keen to live in)
Dublin
Paris
Lucerne
Brunen
Florence (also keen to live in)
Venice
Austria (drove through)
Munich
Rhein Valley
Amsterdam (Also keen to live in)

heres a poster of Phillip the lead singer of Thin Lizzy, Dublin seems to have dubbed him as their prodical son of eighties rock, one pub had a bronze statue of him.

The trip has been very quick and we are coming to our last week. This was a lovely month of sampler holiday destinations. I'll have thousands of photos to put up when we get back but the main thing I'm looking forward to is to hug my kitten kiko. xxoo
