I’ve been making these flower crowns lately and today I finally put on make up (including the successful application of false eyelashes for the first time ever) so I convinced a tired Nick to take photos of me modeling them. I’ll put them up for sale on Fancy Lady Industries soon, I’ve just got to…

Swell Sculpture Festival
The Swell Sculpture Festival at Currumbin Beach has been showing for the last fortnight but we only got out to catch it yesterday morning, before it closes today. We took Miffy with us because there aren’t many art events you can take your dog to! We are bestowing on her an education in the creative…
Settling in.
Since moving I’ve been quiet, but I’m taking some time out to settle in. Where I was once at home in the city, bordered by big buildings and noise while everyone went about their Very Important Business around me, I’m now allowing myself to sink into a world that is much slower and kinder. There’s…
Stitch and Twitch: Social anxiety and public crafting.
Over the last few months I’ve been coming to terms with learning something new about myself. I’ve been dealing with generalised anxiety and depression for many years but a few months ago I found out I was also suffering with social anxiety. I’ve never been into partying a lot (well, besides my early 20s and…
With chronic bitchface.
What are friends for if they won’t pose in silly photos with you? Zoe and I decided to do an impromptu photo shoot showing off our incredible modeling skills. I suggested to Nick that he mimic skeezebag Terry Richardson’s style of photo taking but he was very uncomfortable with that considering that Richardson is awful…
Where clouds were born.
Today we went for a drive through Mt Nebo and surrounding mountainous regions and took some photos. If you like mysterious mountain bushland saturated with clouds and spider webs, you’re gonna love this post. I am a huge fan of mountains and we are having so much rain at the moment so our trip was…
Low brow, low committment.
Every time I drive over the Story Bridge I feel warm and fuzzy. There’s been no time to finish drawings for me :( Except when I get new inks and I spend a bunch of time playing with them! The card I made for my sister’s birthday… I’ve been infected with the hipster isosceles and…
Vitamin D
Nick took me down to the coast today. Snapper Rocks is one of my favourite places although we were technically at Duranbah Beach. Some of the graffiti on the rocks is decades old… it makes me wonder if people like Cheryl and John are the sort who wag their fingers at young kids today and…
Comfort in beauty and memory.
Hello fabulous necklace and attractive person! Ever since I figured out how to design stuff for acrylic I’ve been really interested in what other people have been making with it and I really like this idea of several plates that fit together. I’d love to have access to the kind of equipment that would let…
My Saturday featuring The Finders Keepers market.
Coffee is the best way to get a Natalie to start the day! We had our Saturday morning all planned out, we were going to check out the new Coorparoo Markets and then move on to Finders Keepers but parking at the rejuvenated old Myer Coorparoo building AND breakfast in our tummies were seriously lacking,…
