Not raindrops on roses but dinosaurs on cosies. These are Ry of Handmade High Street's favourite things right now.

I was so excited when Liv rang to tell me she'd just discovered her Dinosaur Tea Cosies are featured on Handmade High Street's blog. Benjamin, Kath and Ry decided to do occasional posts of their own personal favourite things in their store. It seems Ry's nephew's obsession with dinsaurs has helped rekindle his love of prehistoric monsters. I think Liv's dinosaurs are pretty awsome too.

Donated this cute bag to Bollyfunk Dance Event to raise funds for Oxfam.



I had so much fun making this bag totally out of recycled materials (except the little clip for your keys). The flowers with vintage button centers were made out of the same material as the lining using an origami fold.

Check us out at Handmade High Street.

We're so excited to have scored a space at Annerley's coolest new store Handmade High Street. It's a special display marketplace for hand made artisans. I saw today on their Handmade High Street Blog that there's a Style Evening Thurs 23rd Feb at 6pm. With bubbly, nibbles and styling tips on offer I'm very tempted to zip up to Brisbane and make a night of it with Liv.
Liv made the rustic Roses Tea Cosy specially for our display.
