Christmas flea & a new venture...


My cushions...
 


 Black & Spiro Christmas Flea in action... {Image via Anna Spiro instagram}
 
On Saturday just gone, Anna Spiro held another one of her fabulous flea markets at her store {Black & Spiro}. It was a Christmas flea and had a number of Brisbane artists displaying their wares & beautiful things they had made. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to launch some of my own products which included cushions and tablecloths. I have had these in the pipeline for so long & it was a fabulous opportunity to have them displayed amongst so many other beatiful things.
 
The cushions & tablecloths were all made by me. There were cushions made from a vintage tropical toile fabric, hand block printed with the word "love" in fluoro pink and also orange. They were a hit {thank you so much to everyone who purchased one} & the fabric is stunning. There is only a small amount of fabric left so I will be working out today how many cushions are left for those who have placed orders!!! The other cushions were a cute pink/white stripe & orange/white stripe with hand sewn pom poms in the shape of a heart. I am a little obsessed with love hearts {as you may have gathered from many of my earlier posts} so this series of cushions I called 'Spread the Love'.... Just in time for Christmas.

 The tablecloths are a large patchwork design made from a mixture of bright & colourful florals, stripes, spots etc. They would look fabulous on a Christmas table or outside for a garden BBQ.

Thanks so much to Anna & the girls for a great day and to all of you who came along & supported!!!

There will be many changes happening in the new year both on the blog & with my new venture so stay tuned!!! There will be more beautiful wares coming in the new year so I will keep you all posted.


If you would like any more information on the cushions or tablecloths, or if you would like information on custom pieces, please email me here.

It's great to be back....

  1. Well done on your success! Your cushions are beautiful and I'm not surprised they were so popular. I was admiring them on instagram. I'd have loved to drop by but Hobart is so far away!

  2. Hi Kelly,
    I was so disappointed I couldn't make the flea.
    Your cushions were what I had my eye on from what I saw on instragram!
    They are really fabulous!
