    As you know the Etsy colour searches don’t work at this end of the the colour (or should I say non-colour) spectrum. But the keyword search yielded many gorgeous results. Here’s what I found: TOP: Old New Again’s Handmade Hook Vase. I know it’s technically not my target colour but it was sitting on the…

    Things have been a little quiet on my blog front… apologies. I’ve been settling back into normal work hours, fighting a cold and trying to make a start on my first Uni assignment which is due in a couple of weeks. This semester I’m doing Digital Publishing and Typography and part of my first assignment…

    This is my contribution to Piper’s alphabet hop. In case you’re wondering Piper, from One Sydney Road has put together an alphabet hop and today is my turn as the proud owner of the letter M. The idea is you take your letter and go and photograph things that show your interpretation of that letter.…

    I love brown… all shades. It’s such a rich warm colour and it actually suits me. My Etsy colour search didn’t really work for me and neither did a keyword search for ‘sienna’. I guess it’s more associated with a name than a colour these days (wow I sound old). So my ‘brown’ search yielded…
