Silly Self Portraits

I felt so silly today.

I opened up all the windows of my tiny flat, grabbed my camera and started... posing in front of it. I mean, I love facebook and taking photos but I don't like being the subject of the photos.

I kept on peeking out the window to make sure that none of my neighbours catch me in the act. I am NOT doing something illegal, immoral or obscene but I felt incredibly silly.

Despite all these challenges, I thought my pretty necklaces deserve to get a proper "neck" photo shoot.

I hope the sacrifice was worth it!

Market Saturday and Beach Sunday

Weekends are always too short. The weather's absolutely gorgeous and there's so much happening at this time of the year. I also had a chance to upload some of my first items on my etsy shop! Hooray! Please check them out, they feature some sparkling hair pieces, necklaces and earrings. It's at http://ahhbmall.etsy.com/

Finders Keepers Market Saturday

When I told Mr A. that we are visiting a market call "Finders Keepers" he asked if everything there will be free. I wish! There were so many indie designers with beautiful things, jewellery, dresses and paper craft, gloriously displayed inside Carriageworks. Definitely lots of eye candy.

Although, I'm not sure what's going on but it seems that there's an overwhelming number of designs out there featuring Russian dolls, owls and sparrow motifs. It's bewildering how fashion dictates the trends of indie artists too.

Beached on Sunday

Yay, my first beach day this summer... glorious!

New Start

It's the first day of summer and I hung a spanking new banner on to my etsy page! So there's alot of exciting stuff to look forward to. The etsy page is scarily empty but I'll get on to loading items soon.

Talk about empty, I bought a Christmas tree on the weekend and it's naked pines are staring back at me. I've got to get on to making the ornaments before Christmas comes and goes.

And also on the topic of naked Christmas trees, check these fellas out. They are taking the minimalist idea all the way to the holiday seasons! (picture below from http://possibilitree.com )
