Metallics and Marigolds

Having been usinging Polyvore this weekend to scramble together some couture, I wanted to take this tool with me on my journey around the world of decorating and design shops where I could place room arrangements and colour coordinate bedrooms and lounge rooms with my slant on coast and nautical influences. Here's my first foray along the shoreline.

The Daily Buzz

On 14th July, my birthday and Bastille Day, what a great day!! I was delighted to find an article in  the Daily Buzz called Alphabet Soup featuring my Childrens Alphabets. A. Earl's alphabet you can personalize and K the Vintage alphabet poster are to be found at made it and also my own online store empressionista


And today I wanted to thank Simone for this inclusion only to find that another of my prints was up in the Daily Buzz here:


My bus roll style number pennants are also in my bexpert etsy shop if you'd like to view the collection. I just love the nautical search lamps from Matt Blatt.


I've just discovered Polyvore where you can be your own magazine editor and grab fab clothes off the racks of many design houses, place them in your collective sets and keep them in a stylish montage. I just adore this and have been busy this weekend surfing the salubrious design houses across the globe just getting my style perfected. It's all on the wishlist.

Paper Planes

I feel like I've been away too long so all those who have been viewing the blog welcome to some new posts. Now the picture below is not meant to make you think about keeping your body in trim, nor that we have such a warm climate that we are bikini clad, in fact right now it's thundering outside complete with lightening, hail and plenty of rain. So much so that the run off from the ridge across the road is a roaring torrent.







Had a lovely surprise the other day with this beaut' article in Mens Style Magazine Australia which included a column on my prints. So a big thanks to the team at Mens Style who made this possible.

My next endeavour will be to create some posters featuring planes, the vintage style ones like my uncle used to fly with two wings.

We shall see how that goes in the next installment.
