Here are some new season prints set to go to stores in the following weeks.  The organic cotton long sleeve tees come in natural, grey marle and charcoal, while the a-line skirts are in dark denim and black.  The natural silk/cotton scarves are in steel blue, coffee, red and silver. All these lovely new things have been made in Australia, and all have been hand-printed using eco-friendly inks. It's been a busy time, but lots of fun to see all the new prints ready to go to our lovely stockists throughout Australia.

Life InStyle

The preparation -

Crowds beginning to gather at Hordern Pavillion

The new porcelain earrings and brooches, tea towels and scarves on display

A big thank you to everyone who dropped in to say hello at LifeInStyle in Sydney over the last 4 days. The fair was amazing with so much to see, and so many talented designers showing their new collections. I was surrounded by fab neighbours including my studio buddy Kim from clay Australia, Matthew from Mattt, Deborah DeStephanis, Brooke from Trove, Richard from Puddinhead and Sarah Rothe. Needless to say I came home with lots of goodies, and after a nice little rest it is all systems go and back to work in the studio again.

Home Beautiful

The March issue of Home Beautiful is out today and has featured States of Nature brooches under the heading of pattern maker (cute!). There are lots of great looking design ideas in the mag, and interviews with the creators of Bison ceramics, and Agnes Coy: made by hand. So it will be a lovely read with a cup of tea for me tomorrow I hope....
