Shop Open Day

First day of trading today... it was fun ... didn't sell anything.

Yep... I look like my mother

Baby Dreams

Pet Cuddle beds ... that's Tom the landscape artist in the background.

I use gum leaves for price tags, there are millions of those in my back yard

Products from Peru on the other side

So much more to make to fill the space.

Not a bad spot to have lunch outside the back door.

So much to Learn

So much to learn, so much to do, so little time.

This was a lesson.

Cute eh... bird feeders.. everything glued with a glue that would probably harm me if I gave it a chance.  Hang it by the cup handle, birdie sits on the spoon and has breakfast.

Problem ... big problem... I'm not an engineer... 

I just stuck the cup on the plate and the angle of the dangle is such that the seed would fall off.

Back to the drawing board with that one.

It has been a long time coming

I haven't posted on my blog for over three years but today is the day.

I will be opening a shop space on May 1 and I have been busy busy.  I thought stock would be my main focus but so far display, business cards, pricing, supplies, accountant etc. have me running.

Here is a sneak peak.

Great frame find for $1.50

This bookcase was orange in the 70's

Screen

My old ladder

A great chair I found on the side of the road

I'm calling that pattern seaweed

Love this tree

Been using this for 50 years

Faithful old cupboard

Back to it.

Merry Christmas

Whale Watch

Today I went on a whale watch cruise with some work mates.

I was a bit slow with the camera ... here is the whale butt shot.

and a mother and baby dolphin.

What a lovely day we had.

King Parrot

Breakfast at the fly-thru

Pretty

Guerrilla Knitting

The "Graffiti" of the knitting world

There has been an arts festival in my neck of the woods over the past two weeks.

Today I went to have a squiz and found this "knitted" tree.

It's kinda quirky and this stick insect has already claimed it as his home.

Cool huh

Last Day of Autumn

Autumn colour.

Red Hot Pokers

My first Banksia on a native bush

Slipper Orchids

Beautiful

Autumn Flowers and a Trip to Sydney

Went to visit my friend in Sydney last weekend.


Clearly I have a lot to learn about taking night photo's, although this is a kooky shot of the Harbour Bridge.


Opera house at night ... awesome building whatever the light.



Still say the best view of Sydney is in your rear view mirror .. those drivers are dangerous.



Now for some flowers in my garden this Autumn.

Chinese Lantern

Pineapple Sage (really does smell like pineapple)

Hibiscus

Beautiful

Happy Easter

I like the way the morning sun shines through the trees on my back garden.

Perfect spot for an Easter Egg hunt.

Happy Valentines Day
