Office Space Pretties

Yes, I know. I'm not an artist. Or a stylist or in any creative industry. But what I wouldn't give for an arty office like this one. I'm sure the tech company I work at would get behind this, right?!

Behind the scenes at the Melbourne Museum

I was lucky enough to hang out behind the scenes at the Melbourne Museum recently and amongst other things, I saw an amazing collection of eggs. This drawer was my favourite - it's of Cuckoo eggs in other nests - sneaky, eh? You can also see the beautiful copperplate handwriting next to each clutch (the nest it was found in) of eggs. I had such a good time that I think I may have missed my calling:  museum curatorship seems to involve classifications, neatness and order. Oh. And lots of dead animals, which could prove to be a dealbreaker...

Photographs by me.

Vladimir Markin Jewellery

Love love love the idea of putting hanging washing on the line on a necklace - including socks, underwear and t-shirts! Vladimir Markin's designs are probably not for everyone but I think they're super cute.

Plants Plants Plants

In exciting news, we've found a new apartment to rent! Promise to show pictures soon, but I'm so relieved: the house hunting was getting me down and now I get to day dream about how to decorate it. One thing I would like is plants. Lots of plants. And hopefully, I will not kill them. 

Images here and here.

Framed Maps on Walls

Could there be a more orderly or more delightful post for a Monday morning? Enjoy these maps.

Craftydermy

Just adore these examples of Craftydermy from an exhibition in the UK. A perfectly vegetarian acceptable form of animal art ;)

Comfy Corners

The combinations of these little drawers and maps is awesome. Just plain old awesome. (And that brown satchel below isn't half shabby, either).

Kosney Wall Units

Just adore these wall units. Sensationally cute and super practical. I am lucky Kosney doesn't ship to Australia...

Ephemera Packs - back in the shop!

After a very long hiatus, I've opened up my little Etsy shop. Yes, I know it's been months and months, but here they are: colour-coded backs of stationery, cards, papers, stickers, stamps - these are great if you like writing mail or decorating presents or little cards and labels. They are a paper-lover's dream. (And they ship free in Australia!)
