Now THAT'S up-cycling!

This is what my lighting arrived wrapped in! Torn pages from a French vintage colour illustrated encyclopaedia. Now to decide what to do with it...

Cupcake Central progress

With exactly one week to go until the Cupcake Central Workshopopens it is beginning to take shape! It's always such a thrill to get on site and see my designs taking shape off the page and into real life.

I did a mini site visit today to see the tiling and could not be happier with the result to date.

In today's mail...

Today I received delivery of these simple but oh so lovely lights for a top secret project due to open next week (if all goes to plan).

Hello and welcome

Hello to my new readers who have come to me via Desire To Inspire. It was such a lovely surprise to see my own work featured on a blog I so often read. I hope you hang around and enjoy my posts. x

Label addict.

Nothing is safe from my labeller! I have even put a label on the fish bowl - I kid you not. My muesli is not even safe. And yes I spelt it wrong in my haste and excitement.

Paperpedic bed by Karton

Could this be the solution to my kids bed dilema? Karton are a Melbourne based design group who use their genius to construct all matter of furniture from cardboard. The best bit about this bed is that for a small sum ($188) it can be either a single, queen or double bed. Apparently it holds 1 tonne. Amazeballs.

For more info and to see other great products check out the Karton site.

Apologies to the creatives behind this image, I don't have your details.

Cupcake Central

The countdown is on until the new Cupcake Central Workshop opens at Melbourne Central. I've been working with the lovely Sheryl and Thin on designing their dream workshop space. To celebrate the opening they are offering 1000 free cupcakes on their first day of trade. Construction has started, so I'll let you know when the doors open!
