Farmhouse or Seaside?

Where would you like to go? Undecided? Go to both - it’s easy with these stamp sets.

Ok, so maybe you don’t really want to sit at the kitchen table stamping and colouring in seaside and farmhouse scenes, but your children might, or your grandchildren? Or you might want to seal an envelope with a sailing boat, or put a few kanga’s on a card? Really, you can do whatever you like.

Each one of these stamps is locally designed and illustrated, then printed onto stamps and ‘rubberised’ (that was my word, not theirs). Timber is then locally sourced and prepared to mount the stamps onto and once this is done, the material for each bag are sourced, sewn and packed together with a gorgeous letterpress card to seal the deal. Thanks Two Degrees in Melbourne - what a champion effort, donchyathink? All local, all recycled, and totally ace and unique stamps.

Just call me the KKK

The Kris Kringle Krusader that is.

I know I know, you’ve got a budget of $20 to buy a kris kringle present for someone you barely know at work. You’ve emailed their co-worker - “yes, I guess they drink tea” they say, “No, I don’t know what their house looks like”, “I guess they’d like soap”?…. “um, have no ideas really, sorry”. When your colleagues let you down, I step in. Here i go.

Everything you see in these fabulously professional photos is $20 or less. No I’m not lying. $20 or less. Take your pick. Would Kevin in accounts like some tea? Sure he would! Perhaps Mabel from IT is into pottery - she’d love a little milk jug. And Brian from the mailroom - we hear he likes to bake shortbread and scones when he’s not sorting envelopes. Done!

And maybe you need a gift for your children’s flock of teachers? Add them to this list I tell you!

More amazing ideas to follow……

Sending the love

Whether we’re ready for it or not, Christmas is upon us. Yes it is. And it’s time to start sending your christmas love.

Come on, get out that list and start thinking of new and interesting ways to say Merry Christmas to your nearest and dearest. You could list every member of your family’s greatest achievements for the year, or make some of them up. Or tell your wacky aunt you hope she and her 12 cats are doing well this silly season. Or tell that long distant friend that you never see from one year to the next, that ‘we should catch up in the new year’. You know the drill…..

This lovely collection of Christmas cards might just help - Our lovely new range from our latest card crush, Elly Oak, as well as the clever Poppies for Grace gals. And the xmas tags are the best - 18 tags in a box (for only $25) - surely that will get you into the spirit!
