Friday, October 16, 2009

My poor blog has been greatly neglected of late. I have a trip to Brisbane to catch up with my sister in a week's time, so I've been getting organised for that. But, as always seems to happen, ideas & inspiration strike at the most unexpected times. And I can't ignore that rush!!

I was looking at Mandy's blog, and felt inspired by her gorgeous coin purse project. Now, this is no straight-forward inspiration. I can't sew. I haven't sewn since Year 7 Home Economics class (ahem... 17 years ago!)

But, not one to shy away from a challenge, I figured I'd give it a go. Well, I am hooked. Fun & simple, this sort of sewing was designed for someone like me :)

Then the idea grew... and grew... and grew. I am still working on the finer details, but all will be revealed soon.

Celebrate... with a SALE

There is lots to celebrate here this weekend. Daylight Savings kicks off tomorrow night (yay for longer days!), it's a holiday long weekend and the NRL football grand final takes place on Sunday evening (and my team are playing - woot!)

So, what better way to celebrate than with a sale?

Vanilla Pixie is offering 30% off EVERYTHING - yes, you read that right - in store (postage excluded). I will refund via PayPal, or simply wait for a revised invoice. Easy!

I will be adding lots of new stock over the weekend, so keep checking back. Perhaps this is the perfect time to pick up some Christmas gifts...

Wishlist Wednesday

Hooray, my hair is finally long enough to actually do something with it. It's been a long time coming though. I shaved it all off for the Leukaemia Foundation's Shave for a Cure in March 2008!

So, I've had plenty of time to browse Etsy for some fabulous hair accessories. These are some of my faves...
