Better Scale

Heres a better photo showing Brett putting the chandelier up. This is the first layer.

Gorgeous Chandelier

I've finally managed to get a photo of this beautiful
chandelier that my husband Brett made. He was commissioned to design and make it for a new shop in Greytown. This photo does not really show the scale very well but it is rather large and incredibly heavy. The glass dangles are the insulators off power lines. Isn't Brett clever!

Dummy

Today a dummy arrived at our house! Pefect for displaying my longer necklaces. However it needs a bit of work............a heavier base, a new covering fabric and a change of colour. Watch this space!

Spring greens

In the last week or so the weather has taken a turn for the better. Spring has sprung! Everything in our garden has started to bud. This is a photo of some magnolia leaves. Just look how many greens there are in the one photo.

Red

Look what happens when you group objects in the same colour tones.

Frocks on Hangers

These frocks on hangers were part of a large order that went to a shop in Queenstown. Its really great being able to use lots of colour and pattern in whatever way I fancy.

Art form of Nature

I was looking through some holiday snaps the other day (to remind myself of Summer!) and came across this one of a shark egg. Apparently the shark winds the casing into the sand with the eggs hidden in the folds. This was found on Arrawarra beach just north of Coffs Harbour in Australia. My son Mitchell spotted it amongst the flotsam and jetsam on the beach. I think its a beautiful little art form of nature.
