new & cute

Just experimenting with photography today...

Ginkgo in Plum - gorgeous new clutch, I love this one! I think the ginkgo goes perfectly with the houndstooth vintage wool. Available on Etsy (sadly the Babushka dolls don't come with it).

And Trevor is from awhile ago - the bear purse is also available on Etsy.

I'm not sure if this new photo style will last, but it's fun for now!

good days

Exciting things today! Pocket Carnival featured in The Age newspaper, in the Saturday A2 section. Hurrah! They published a little mini interview with me:

And a little picture of my Bunnykin Coinpurse, available in my shop on etsy.com - thanks The Age!

I also happened to go to a great little op shop near my house (after brunching on fruit toast and peppermint tea with Chris) and got this fabulous mini teacup. I'm a naughty painter and will just as likely use a cup of tea to clean my ink nibs as a jar of water, hence our teacups are sometimes a bit inky. But not anymore! This is my designated water cup from now on. And a new illustration!
