Featured on WHATDesigners.com

My Madame Butterfly necklace was recently featured in the WHATDesigners.com mini guide for long layering necklaces!

Watch this space for more press - I was recently interviewed in Hong Kong's The List magazine and have not gotten around to scanning the interview to post up on my blog. I wholeheartedly appreciate all this attention and compliments that I receive from customers, bloggers, media, etc - it is the compliments and encouragement that really contribute to driving me on to create and design on a daily basis...however hard it is when coupled with a full time job.

Save the dates (if you're in Hong Kong!):

7th/8th November: Soho Street Festival, 12-9pm, Soho (Elgin, Wellington, Peel, Staunton Streets), Central.

28th/29th November: Random Art Workshop Christmas Fair (details at the RAW website http://www.randomartworkshop.com)

Sunday morning surprise!

It's definitely Spring here. I'm sneezing and I can't stop.
I'm a massive ball of snot.

That said, I woke up to a lovely surprise!

The Australian Bush Fire Appeal

Tragedy has struck Australia is the form of one of the most devastating bush fires in the country's history.



Hailing from Sydney, I am relieved that NSW has escaped the brunt of the fires, but am still shocked and saddened by the vast devastation and the death toll of 170 + (and still increasing). Homes have been burnt to the ground and townships completely wiped out.



A group of Aussies on Etsy have set up the following Etsy store called OzBushFireAppeal, where donated items from fellow Etsy sellers will be sold and all proceeds to be sent to the Australian Red Cross:

Please check this store out!



Alternatively, please contact Emma at OzBushFireAppeal to makea donation...or donate directly to the Australian Red Cross!
