Our Song

What could be better than Patti Smith belting out 'Because The Night' live...?  Sarah McLachlan playing the piano while Patti Smith belts out 'Because The Night' live...

Ten Things...

Playing 'Ten Things' about me, courteous of Pip...

1. I was born with dislocated hips and wore a brace.  My hips still hurt sometimes.  I sucked my thumb until I was 22 and then suddenly stopped.  I still have tiny well worn pieces of my sheepskin baby rug.
2. I am missing two teeth and had a large gap.  I had braces put on to close it in grade 3 and had them off in grade 6, when everyone else was just getting theirs!
3. I lost my first teddy in Kmart when I was little.  My parents got me a new one and I called it 'Belinda'.  I then called every doll/toy I owned 'Belinda'.  I hate the name 'Belinda'.
4. I have been interviewed for the 6 o'clock news.
5. I have no memory of certain times in my life.
6. I have been bitten on my big toe by an eel.  It drew blood.
7. I cannot drive.  I will never drive.  I am terrified of driving.
8. I am one of six children.  I have eleven nieces and nephews (and still counting).
9. I once was laughing at the fact that the Aussie actor, Beau Brady, had the same name as the guy on 'Days Of Our Lives' and how tragic I thought it was.  My mum then informed me that she got the idea for my name from a character on the show...
10. Today is the day I found out my Grandad had passed away.

Play too... if you dare!

Get In 'The Loop'

Image from here

I'm in 'The Loop', you should get in it too!!

If you're struggling to get your creative profile out there, take a look at The Loop. Friends Pip and Matt recently launched the creative network as a career network tool for creative professionals - kinda like a mash up between LinkedIn, Seek, Facebook and Vimeo. It's a place where creatives can promote themselves online by creating a free online profile; including portfolio, showreel and resume. "The aim of the site is to help connect creatives with one-another and with industry," says Pip. "With the eventual aim of bagging them that dream collaborator, job or client." We particularly like the fact you can send someone a handshake.

Finding Your Bliss...

Image from here

It has been said that in order to be happy, you need to find your bliss and make it your life's work.  Well this week I felt as though I had  literally stepped into a huge pool of bliss - and I was working in a real life job at the time!!  Ye-ha!

I have been extremely lucky this week to be working with the deliciously delightful Lauren Ferry from Herman Huckleferry and The Oddities Factory in Geelong.  This teeny tiny little shop is brimming with quirky little delights in every corner.  Lauren stocks devine creations from the likes of A Skulk Of Foxes, Victoria Mason and Ink and Spindle. 

Lauren also has her own fantasmical range of jewellery and accessories under the label Okt-ober dee  

I spent this week helping Lauren get some orders together to send off all over the country and also the assemblage of some of her amazing jewellery designs.

Not only did I get to do some amazing, fun, blissful work but I also got to do it while listening to some amazing stuff like this...

lovely.....

"Five Faves" Meme - by PIP form Meet Me At Mikes!

Today I am playing the "Five Faves" game courteously created by PIP from Meet Me At Mikes!  The idea is simple, list your five favourite things for the week.  I think you should play too, don't you?

So, after some careful consideration, here is the list of my "five faves"...

1.  The new cardi and shirt I bought off Ebay this week (oooh naughty!!).  The cardi even has a little owl on the back! *sigh*

2.  Pop-up wallets.  Lordy.... These pop-up wallets from Poketo make me swoon...yes they dooooo!

3.  Florals and Stripes.  These totally amazing 50's inspired Tea Dresses by sohomode will be the death of me...

4.  This Blog here who knew that vintage florals could be so flippin' awesome??!

5.  Hot Air Balloons.  I adore them, not sure why really..  There is a whimsical and fantastical feeling that seems to surround them... 

I especially adore these 3D retro cards by O-Check

So, that brings me to the end of my little list of favourite things for the week...  what about you?  What is your latest desire, want, need, delight, find, obession or indulgence? Do tell...
