Unfortunately due to some unexpected circumstances, I won't be able to attend my usual monthly spot at NSOFM in June. Here's where you'll be able to catch me next...

June 27th is a huge double-header.. We start the
day at the always incredible ! Head on down to Felons Barrel Hall to support over 70 local artists showcasing an outstanding array of bespoke and mindfully made items.

Then we're skedaddling straight over to
for their Winter Solstice
Festival, a truly special community event where you can celebrate the changing of seasons with a night of music, markets, bonfire and festivities.

July 12th you'l find us back at our usual monthly spot at , Brisbane's only fully organic market, where you can pick up the best tasting fruit and veg while browsing some
incredible eco- friendly makers.

Then on July 26th you'll find me at the Winter Design Market, where you can immerse yourself in a lively day of discovery, celebrating the creativity of talented local artists and makers. Held in the GOMA Forecourt with all stalls undercover, it’s a warm and welcoming Winter outing for the whole family.

📢 Dog Leads and Dog Collars are now up on the website!!

[It only took me 6 months to finally get them on there 🙈... I'll count it as a win!]

I've lost count of how often I've been asked for these, and they're now officially heeeeeere!

These babies are fully upcycled - crafted from the sheaths of retired climbing ropes, with all fittings taken from old dog leads, collars and harnesses collected in my dog lead recycling program at RSPCA Dakabin.

Built from old gear. Ready for new adventures. Check them out, and tell me what you think!

Saying I loved this custom order is SUCH an understatement! 🤩

The brief was for a pannier bag that she could easily take off and use as a cross body bag when she parked up the bike. She picked the colours to use, and trusted my process from there.

[Couldn't wait for proper pics to post this, so you get some quick shots of it popped on the back of my mate's bike.]

As with all my products, this baby is fully upcycled! A summary of materials used...

🛶 Front buckle/strap are from an old life jacket
🪖 Back buckles are from old climbing helmets
🧗‍♀️ Body of bag, shoulder strap, side buckles, and elastic stay are all from old climbing harnesses
➰️ Trim is the sheath of an old climbing rope

Really love how this one came together ❤️

Got a custom project in mind? Hit me up!

Just 3 sleeps to go until the Sustainable BNE Festival !

This free dog-friendly event is jam packed with things to do and see... Grab some free native plants, check out the work of some amazing community groups, attend some incredible workshops and demonstrations all designed to make sustainable living practical, affordable and achievable... then go grab a bite to eat along Feast Street with some of Brisbane's favourite food trucks.

There's also a huge line up of eco-activities to keep the kids entertained.

Don't forget to come support some incredible local makers at the BrisStyle Markets in the Sustainable Shopping Zone. That's where you'll find us and our upcycled goodies - think belts, bags, homewares and dog accessories, all created from retired climbing gear.

And that's only scratching the surface - you don't want to miss this...

Did you know this week is Australian Made Week??

I'm proud to be part of a movement of 850+ verified artisans standing together to bring the spotlight on handmade.

For me, handmade means doing things slowly and with intention. It means passion over perfection. A deep respect for the materials I use, and profound joy in the process of transforming them.

Does handmade matter to you? If so, tag your favourite Australian handmade artisan - I'd love a chance to discover someone new!

I've been hard at work knotting up a bunch of macrame plant hangers! These babies have been created from the inner core of retired rock climbing ropes, which I've hand dyed into a range of awesome colours.

A perfect gift for any plant lover! 🪴🌈
