What a beautiful summer New Zealand has been experiencing these past few weeks! I don’t think I’ve had this kind of heat and clear blue skies in years – and am loving it!
One of the great things about living in Auckland compared to Wellington is that people love to wear colour – it reminds me of when I moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles. You go from an all black wardrobe to an assortment of brights and patterns - something this designer loves! One can’t help but feel vibrant and happy when surrounded by brights!
A lot of new things have been buzzing in the studio this past week! We released our latest addition to the shop: baking decorations! Here you can find cake and cupcake toppers in all our designs. And don’t forget, just like with any of our work – have something in mind but don’t see it online – let us know and we can custom make it!
We’re also working furisouly away getting ready for the New Zealand Gift and Homeware Fair - our first trade show! Not to mention working on two new products to be released soon and a few markets coming up as well! All to be released in detail soon..!
Now enough talking and onto link sharing:
1. Vibrant streamers and pom poms light up this barn in a heart felt Main wedding.
2. Loving the typography treatment on this poster by Luke Williams.
3. Gluten free has never looked so good - beautiful packaging by Nancy Hope.
4. In love with this hand painted flower garland cake topper - what attention to detail!
5. We found this shop earlier this week on Etsy and fell in LOVE – everything is just amazing!
6. Rhubarb Ice Cream with Oatmeal Shortbread, don’t mind if we do.
7. J.Crew has come out with a new line of boat shoes - I’ll take one in every colour and pattern please.
I hope you all have a great weekend and stay tuned for more announcements and February’s wallpapers! x

Well, we did it everyone – a big high five for surviving the first week back to work after the holidays! I’m not sure about you, but man was that challenging….email correspondance slow with some people still being away, work slowly trickling, the weather teasing – but we did it! And for those of you still not back yet, well we’ll just call you lucky ducks.
This Sunday, I’m having a birthday – a biggy actually! No big plans have been made for the weekend. My partner and I are going to dinner on Saturday night but apart from that I look forward to sunshine, coffee, wine, and relaxation. With that in mind – I came up with this week’s roundup! I hope you do enjoy and have a fantastic weekend as well. x
1. Lovely Baby’s Breath typeface formed with Gypsophila/Baby’s Breath. The meaning of Gypsophila is to miss, to adore, and to give. Gypsophila often serves a supporting role, but its existence is significant.
2. I sure wouldn’t mind spending most of my birthday weekend under this marvelous tree!
3. Loving this coffee branding by Alex Westgate for the Coffee Shop.
4. Yup, this cute kitty has the right idea!
5. Crumble has always had a soft spot in my heart - rhubarb mulberry crumble you say? Now that sounds like a must!

7. And what’s a birthday without balloons!?
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and good luck easing back into work life! x
Happy Friday everyone – how lovely is it that the sun is shining, it’s so much nicer than cold rain! I’m beyond excited and so flattered to be able to share this stunning styled shoot with you, I love that gold is so popular at the moment, it’s just so pretty and works so beautifully with lovely soft pastels! How absolutely stunning is the soft table setting styled by the enormously talented All the Frills, you would feel oh so special dining at that table then getting to enjoy a few sweet treats from the dessert table by Bluebells Cakery before smashing the living day lights out of gilded piñata - it sounds like the perfect party!! This beautiful shoot was perfectly organised and photographed by the wonderfully talented Ellie from Jel Photography – she also made a little time lapse of the day, it’s so fantastic you have to watch it! I hope everyone has an exciting weekend planned, I’d love to hear what your up to – I’m hosting a delicious baking class tomorrow, then lunching with friends on Sunday – I can’t wait. x
