Gardening

Last Friday I had a long list of things to do (print things; get stocktake done; reply to emails; cook; clean - in other words: work, work work) but it was a lovely spring day and all I really wanted to do was plant some tomato seedlings and other herbs and chill out on my balcony and listen to some newish music, so that's what I did.

I went to the local (and inspiring) nursery and bought some potting mix and other goodies and repotted my lovely parsley, chives, thyme, mint, aloe vera and other succulents (they were in need of a bit of love) and planted new things - tomatoes! Basil! Oregano! And now some of the succulents, which multiply so quickly and easily, now live in the flat, which is super great.

New gift tags & cards







Have been having a lot of fun printing cards and gift tags and finally got a chance to photograph them today, and put them in my Etsy shop. The sun was hot, such a weird feeling! Hope it lasts for the weekend.

New Stockists

Just a quick note to say you can now find various Spin Spin goods at a range of shops around Melbourne town and the world. So if you're near me, you can go to the lovely Onabee in Kensington but if you're far far away, perhaps in Austria, you can swing by the sweet Stoffsalon in Vienna (where you can find lots and lots of lovely Australian fabrics) or in another direction, the delightful looking Dots & Loops Handmade in Nova Scotia, Canada.

Cushion Mania

I'm chuffed to see my Graph Paper cushion included in the latest Frankie magazine and their cushion round-up. And mine's next to one from Donna Wilson House **swoon**. Other faves include Fine Little Day's Splash and Leah Duncan's Triangles, **double swoon**.
