Well I made it!
After a gem-factory filled morning, I headed straight to the printers to collect my babies of heavy boxes of… Spoonful issue 4! YAY!!! After carting the heavy things in and out of the car, they are finally here, in my little office, waiting for little homes all over the world to house them & keep them warm!
Of course, the moment I was able to photograph them, the...
It’s been raining on & off in Sydney over the weekend, but we have been rewarded with some unbelievably beautiful rainbows… as Mr Visionary said - the world is so much better with rainbows in it ;) And a double one, now that’s something to behold…
The double rainbow seemed to set a theme for me, as since then things have come in doubles… two colours to choose...

I am off to sleep on my wandering elephant with blooms beneath his feet…

This picture took me straight back to being a little girl today… My mom would grow a huge patch of sweet peas in our garden every year, & we would run around them… pick them, smell them… and it is genuinely one of the most magical parts of my childhood memories… intwined as they are with sweet peas… of all colours and gentle soft scents…
happy thursday...
So I’ve been drawing, designing & fiddling with packaging design all afternoon for the gem drawing pins/thumb-tacks… what do you think? I can’t decide whether to group them in 3’s or 5’s or both… hmmmmmm…
Also, may I just say how visionary fresh figs are…? My lovely mom bought these, & they are literally lighting up our living room at the...

I feel so much has been said on the issue, but somehow not saying anything is completely wrong as I ADORE Japan, and everything Japanese, and of course our thoughts and care and support and love is definitely here to be given!!! I got all angry at Earth for creating such havoc… WHY JAPAN? WHY NEW ZEALAND, such peaceful friendly places...
Morning Sun by Harold Knight Hello! Monday again, come and gone for us in Oz - they always go so quickly! Ever since I started working for myself in a creative realm I have found them to be my favourite day! People go off to work and leave me in peace to enter into craft & creative heaven… sigh. it’s wondrous! (Plus I don’t have to ‘try it on’ or fit it into my...
image by peace & love I FINISHED SPOONFUL 4 - YAY!!!!! WHOOPEEEE YEEEHAAAA!!!! (hehe I’m excited)
and right now, GAH! I have a confession to make… a whinge actually - sorry, yes today is a whinge post because… I am still wedding dress shopping, and I don’t know… I mean, I make Spoonful right? …therefore, I love beautiful whimsical things and you would...
working lunch....
Okay so I confess, I didn’t get a chance to have coffee, (but thanks for comments, you guys are so right! hehe) I did think I’d treat myself to a haircut too when this is all over…it’s getting desperate here ;)
Anyhow, that is not yet unfortunately, and so: working lunch! I have discovered the WONDERS of using Tahini/Tahina as salad dressing… Mix with fresh lemon...

Greetings lovelies!! I am wrestling (it is a good word for the middle of the design process) with issue 4 of Spoonful, and hopefully all will be well :) But I just have to confess that right now - despite myself and despite loving what I do - I am sorely tempted to be whisked away by some magical travel machine to spend the day at the marvelous Bank Hall…
Discovered completely by accident...
by magsHendey Okay okay! So I might have baked and consumed terrifying amounts of lemon slice today (Shortbread crust, condensed milk & fresh lemon topping) so fine, my bum is bigger and it took time away from stressy spoonful…
but there is something about baking… something that was required to calm me a little… or maybe it was the sugar coma I was after… hehe either...

Hello lovelies!!! I am having a furiously busy monday trying to get Spoonful 4 together, and time, my goodness, time is literally whooshing past me - where does it all go? Mondays are always the quickest days don’t you think? PANIC!!
Anyhow, as I panic and paint & design, my little happy patio garden blooms peacefully & gratefully… thought you guys may enjoy a bloom or...
Have I ever dedicated a post to Mr Visionary? You know, just a post… for my mr. dedicated… I have a suspicion that this is my first.
To Mr Visionary… These roses smell so dreamy & lush, the romance has me high and floating around the living room.
A delicious experience…
