Linky love

Oh man, I feel like such a slack blogger lately. Here I am reading post after post by everyone else and I just have nothing. In fact I feel incredibly slack in all facets of my work lately. The weeks just seems to be rolling by, and at the end of the day its like: "what did I actually get done today?"

There's certainly stuff in the works though. Like a mysterious little collaboration I've got going with Lynn from Satsuma Press. It's VERY exciting, and quite imminent too. More to come soon!

Meanwhile, given I have nothing to show of my own today, it's time for some linky love!

Satsuma Press blog
As previously mentioned, this is Lynn's very new blog! Keep an eye on this one, I reckon there's going to be some good reads and very inspiring letterpress related stuff (if her first few posts are anything to go by!)


Milk & Cookies
A good uni buddy of mine, Tali. She's just started a post-grad animation course, and posts really cool illustrations in lots of different styles.



Kwoozy
The lovely Pei (Pei Pei?) who I got to meet in person at the Etsy meetup the other week! I really like her cute crafty stuff and felted toys :)



Hollabee
A Melbourne based 'Dutchy' who only recently started her craft blog but is already off to a flying start. Some lovely stuff coming out of this one :)



Blossom Creations
The lovely Erin, who kindly put together a little Japan travel guide for me (she lived there for 2.5 years). Anyway her blog is full of some very awesome stuff, and she recently released a range of patterned gift wrap and notebooks. Very cool!


And last but not least - another Etsy purchase! Man I love the impulse buying power of PayPal.


This is a crotcheted coral piece by Jess from jpolka.etsy.com. You can either buy the pattern or she can make them to order for a very reasonable price! I plan to put it in a shadow box frame like she has on her site.

Okay time to go attempt to be productive...

Talented Ladies

It's been awhile between posts and whilst I've been a busy bee there's nothing quite ready to show yet. So I'm just going to spread some linky love and profile two lovely ladies who are doing great things:

Nicole Lecht - Freshly Blended
Nicole's been a busy busy girl setting up her new website and shop for her handmade books - she's almost there and I'm very much looking forward to seeing the fruits of her labour. Here are some of the jotters she's been making. I have a couple at home and they're super handy for notes and sketches and (ashamedly) the occasional shopping list :)


What cute packaging!! I should tie up my fabric like that :)

Heather Moore - Skinny LaMinx
Heather is a whizz with the cutting knife - always making such gorgeous things such as the magnet below. I don't know how she does it without getting a sore wrist! She also makes gorgeous screen printed teatowels and whatnots - check out her etsy shop :)
