Bitterblue

I was recently commissioned to make some button sets for the Melbourne based Bitterblue. I'm looking forward to seeing the buttons featured on this years range of Summer shirts. Check out Bitterblue's awesome range of shirts and winter jackets here or on Sundays at Rose St Artist's Market.

Market Preparations!

Whilst waiting rather impatiently for important supplies, I have been busy preparing all the 'bits and pieces' for the Finders Keepers Market. My Dad has kindly put together some new display stands for me - they are made from some cheap canvases and wooden lengths from Bunnings. I think they look really fresh and modern. Can't wait to try them out! I've also been cutting and stamping hundreds of business cards and packaging pieces... the joy! :)

I'm trying to be organised and not leave anything to the last minute. Is there any must do thing that you have on your market checklist? I'm bound to forget something!

What a Score!

I'm a metric girl through and through so when I purchased a listing on etsy for 3lbs 4oz of vintage fabric scraps, i was expecting a little bundle of pretty fabrics to arrive on my doorstep, not a big box of them! These beautiful vintage fabrics are all cut into strips for a quilting project that was never finished (actually parts of the quilt in progress also came in the box!) and they are perfect for buttons and earrings.

Expect to see lots of these beautiful prints arriving in the shop soon. :)

Button Love

I love seeing what people do with my buttons! These beautiful pages were made up by the talented Jess over at The Happy Srappy Place. Hop on over if you would like to see more of her creations. Jess is also the September guest designer on the Challenge Heaven blog, a great resource from scrapbookers!
