Nanna nights @ E for Ethel

Hey kids I advise you going down to the cute cafe on melbourne street and improving your craftivism skills, also checkout what port Adelaide residents have been doing, good on you guys xx

tikihead jewellery

What do you do with strange plastic items that seem to be missing their full potential? paint them and give them LIFE! Behold the strangeness of an old traditional carving turned meme for the tattoo world and a design favourite for the rockabilly scene.

All varnished so the paint doesnt chip off. My eyes are killing after working with these guys under a crappy lamp for a few hours. I think I need to update my glasses too, oh well labour of love. Check out the blue guys on my etsy, and any others email me and we can negotiate. Going price on earrings ( for aus) is $8, necklaces $5 . XO

Up on etsy

Finally my anti-tech abilities have waned and I got my shit together. I present you brick-en-brack's first online item:

The prettiest of Kitties by brickenbrack on Etsy

www.etsy.com

"This cuddly little cat is great gift for fans of unique designs. I came up with it while playing with my cat Kiko. She sits with her legs tucked under herself, I call this bread loafing. I thought it was so cute I wanted to create a toy that looked like her doing that. after thousands of crumpled up fail designs I decide this pillow style toy was simple and cute."

I hope this little guy finds a home soon. I promise to put some more stuff up there soon (uni is a time suck) xxoo

Guerilla markets!!

Hey kids i'll be at the wonderful guerilla markets on the 3rd of december, keep reading their blog to find out where it's a suprise :).

 Good to grab some unique xmas presents i'll be selling stuff like this

and this

and this too

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!!!
