cute & colourful...


These cute felt & fabric creations are the work of my Mum & sister Kathryn, to sell on their 'Hollipotamus' stall at the markets we attend (the name is inspired by our favourite cutie-pie). Their range of toys, brooches, clips & assorted other creations is ever expanding & I think all the things they are making are utterly adorable (possibly slightly biased, but I mean, just look at them!).

So anyway, just felt like having a some light-heartedness & colour on the blog (these little creatures make me smile). Also rather pleased with how the photos turned out, so kind of showing off a little, lol.

*working on having a proper web presence for Hollipotamus, but for now you can contact them via the shop facebook page.

five things | Miss Holly


1. She is more or less convinced that the only possible place to sleep during the day is on someone's lap - which is super sweet, but kinda makes it hard to get much done.

2. When she's playing the build up to her pouncing is super cute - she waits, gets ready, waits, gets readier & then bam! whatever toy she's after is in trouble.

3. She had a lovely time exploring when we took her with us to Bundaleer Forest, a little unsure at first, but she soon got over that. (also, she is, I swear, wearing her harness & lead, it just doesn't look like it in the photo).

4. Ants fascinate her - she'll spend ages sniffing, following & trying to catch them.

5. In the evening, after a good play, she will curl up on someone's lap until bed time. Usually it's whoever grabs her, but sometimes she'll decide on someone & refuse to settle until she gets the lap she wants - it's uber cute :)

You can find plenty more cute Holly-ness over on her tumblr.

good golly, miss Holly


Just wanted to introduce you to our newest family member - the gorgeous bundle of cute that is Holly.

She's a seven month old moodle (maltese x poodle), who we collected on Sunday & she's very sweet, cuddly & affectionate - I think she'd spend pretty much her whole day curled up on a lap if we let her :)


full credit for the title goes to Kathryn :)

in a spin...


Earlier this month I was thrilled & honoured to find out that I'd won the 'Undiscovered Treasure' category in the 2012 DUST (Down Under Street Team) awards!


& what has a cute pincushion to do with this you ask? Well, not only did I get a huge thrill, I got a prize too!

This delightful mini pincushion, made by the lovely Shelley from Spincushions.


It's so gorgeous & beautifully made. My sister even tried to steal it after I got her to hold it for the photo.


& there are lots more lovely ones in the Spincushions etsy shop, like the sunflower below:
