eyebrows & eyeballs

Also instead of baking on the weekend (as mentioned in the post below) I embroidering 16 sets of eyebrows, 42 eyeballs and 5 pairs of glasses! While doing so I revisited some of the fantastic short videos from here. I am now dreaming of creating puppets. Anyone know somewhere in Melbourne that does so?

etsy seven



It's time for Etsy 7, I think. This week is a little different to the usual findings as I have themed it around a specific item — Vintage Cookie Jars. I started searching for them over the weekend instead of actually baking anything. The cookie jar I grew up with looked nothing like these wonderful character filled jars and exactly like this! Do you remember your childhood cookie jar?

A very cute looking book, with what appears to be a Cat Rabbit critter on the cover.

vintage tractors

A couple of weekends ago my dad and his mates went on a vintage tractor ride. There were twelve tractors in total all pre dating 1975. 

These pictures make me miss this part of the country a little. Life seems slower here. The earth is a lovely rusty shade of red. The local pub is nicknamed 'church'. The land is flat and you can see for miles. Before rain the air smells amazing and the stars in the nights sky shine ever so brightly.

yesterday

In the studio yesterday. It was cold and rainy outside. A good day for staying in and knitting beards!
