Elaine pin

Graphic artist Georgia Perry's new 'Elaine pin' is killing me! The Celebrity Heads range also includes Oprah and Kanye, so it's pretty hard to choose a fave. I'm just having an 'Elaine moment' right now. See the rest here!

Cute Stuff #7

There's an awful lot of Christmassy cuteness out there at this time of year.

Like this cheery collection of tree ornaments by Alice Oehr and Rittle.

And these festive goodies from craft Queen Kitiya Palaskas.

Rittle artist Ellie King's new webshop Pieces 4 Places is full of covetable Christmas goodies, like this Jessilla Rogers Trophy Vessel, and Rittle soft sculpture.

The new wall ornaments from Beneath the Sun are just too cute for words.

Years ago I had a poster by New Zealand artist Tanja McMillan, aka Misery, but she's been off my radar for the past few years. Now after having kids she's created the Misery Guts line for 'Little Humans'. I'm loving these wall hangings - cute, with just a bit of an edge.

This is seven year old artist Yung Lenox, 'foremost doodler of rap' who is donating all sales from his 'Killa' print this year to the Seattle Children's Hospital Toy Program. I really love this idea. Despite having just posted a list of stuff that I wish I could own (I just really love stuff!), now that I'm a Mum I want to instil in Ray the importance of being generous and giving.

I was following the Facehunter instagram feed while he visited some of my favourite parts of New Zealand, and made them look even more insanely beautiful than I remember.

Also lately I've been:
Listening to the Miss Moss December music mix and loving the summer party vibes!
Watching High Maintenance. I love the format of this show.
Reading about Chris Pratt talking about his premature son. Having Ray early made me realise how common premature births are. It even happens to celebs!

Cute Stuff #6

Some new cute stuff I've been into lately.

The Seychelles dress by Twenty-seven Names …

and these similar dresses from Obus. What a rad summer uniform they would make.

This happy pillow from Gorman's Home Time range.

It's much too early to be talking about 2015 calendars, I know, but the Ask Alice Annual Charity Calendar is available for pre-order, and it's a beauty.

Hungry for That. I wish I could dive right into that bottom photo, mouth first.

I have been really into the new Jamie Oliver series, Comfort Food. That's him and Caitlin Moran ogling his toasted cheese sandwich, above, which was an amazing episode. The series, and cookbook is all about taking retro, run of the mill dishes and making them spectacularly, over the top. That cheese sandwich was so impressive.

Cute Stuff #5

A round up of cute stuff I've seen lately.

Alice Oehr's incredible illustration advertising this screening of one of my fave movies. She totally nailed Molly's awkward expression here!

Studio Home interview Potheads creator Kim Jaeger, and have a poke around her place. I'm really enjoying the artist profiles on this site, they really delve into people's backgrounds and how they got to where they are today.

Bill Murray alphabet by Adelaide Daniell

Dolly's Bust Magazine cover

Maria, of Schorlemaedchen has started a new cooking blog with her partner called Mostly Saturdays. I love her blog, and pretty much 'like' everything she posts on instagram. The new blog is still in it's early days and already I can't get enough.

Enemies Yay poster. This would look so awesome in Ray's room.

Cute Stuff #4

Since my last post I've been to New Zealand and back, and moved house. Busy times! I've also spotted these cute things from around the interwebs.

The Winter Harvest Quilt, from Gorman's homeware range. I thought it was cold in New Zealand, but I got back to a freezing Melbourne. Need this to snuggle up under.

I loved seeing all the new season Winter fashion in New Zealand. Since I'm at home a lot now I've been dressing even more for comfort. This trouser/trackpant hybrid from Huffer pleases me.

Weaving whizzes New Friends are making rugs now. Any one of these would be an excellent addition to our new place.

This Hummingbird cake by Julia Busuttil. I had Hummingbird cake at a book club get together a few years ago, and it was so delicious. This reminded me that I've always wanted to make one myself.

I need these sneakers with puppies on them from Keep shoes. Cat lovers, there's a version for you guys too.

Vudu Cafe in Queenstown has this stunner of a vintage photo on the wall, as seen on studiohomeonline. Ray's bedroom in our new place has a window that's been sealed up so I've been mulling over getting a large landscape printed to put in it. My first idea was a tropical beach scene, but now I'm thinking I could use one of the photos I took last week in Queenstown. Fingers crossed that when I get my film developed the pictures look even half as good as this one.

Small Wear

I've been following ALL Knitwear on instagram and squeeing over the custom baby clothes that have been posted from time to time. It seems I wasn't the only one because now the company is making small hats and booties available through their webshop. I know of one tiny cutie who would look pretty good wearing one of those baby hats!

Moo Moo Woof Woof

Moo Moo Woof Woof poster by Laura Carlin and Chie Miyazaki from finelittleday

This cute kids poster from Fine Little Day caught my eye. I'd love to try and do something similar for Ray's room.

Spring Things

It's not quite Spring time yet, but after an eyeful of all this colour you might feel like it is!

{Harvest Textiles Melting Icecream Tote}

{Gorman Pony Club Acid Dress}

{Handmade Love Ice Cream Pillowcase Set}

{Stampel Surf Spray Vessels}

{Emily Green Crispbread drop earrings}

{Gorman Ipanema Boot}

Yes please Baggu

I have a bit of a navy thing going on at the moment. It snuck up on me until I realised my wardrobe was so full of navy that I could outfit myself head to toe in it if I wanted. I'm also pretty big on polka dots right now, so when I saw these new navy dot print bags from baggu, well, you can imagine my excitement.

Precious Pouches

Seen on thedesignfiles, these tiny leather lockets by Jen Booth are a supercute way of keeping precious trinkets near. I'm thinking they would be the perfect thing for carrying crystals.

Get yours here!

I Love Tray

I'm in love… with a tray. The 'How Wonderful Life Is' tray to be exact! Made in Sweden and decorated with a hand drawn image by Hanna Melin. I spotted this beauty on Hello Polly and fell head over heels! I'm not sure if it was the "Your Song" lyrics that got me, or the thought of the tray laden with tea and cakes, or breakfast in bed. Anyway, I am smitten!
