Secret Wars, Sydney




The 21 year old's boyfriend is a street artist called 'Sprinkles'. 

So I went along to take a look at the semi final on 15 June.  In an hour and a half, these guys had to fill a large blank space, engage the audience and outdraw the competition.  This was no easy feat. The pressure was on.

The vibe was good, the music was good, there was a camera crew but most of all, the art was just excellent. I have so much respect for these guys.

Here's more on youtube.

bags with pom poms and tikis




I'm getting into the groove with these bags: pom poms and plastic tikis for that slightly kooky and out there touch....

Aussie destination bags

So here we have thre 'Aussie destinations' bags.  Made from souvenir teatowels, recycled fabric and recycled banner vinyl (that's what makes the bags sturdy and able to sit upright), with silver metal gromits and shoulder straps so they can double as a tote or a messenger bag.

I wish I'd seen these up in Cairns....
