A few bespoke leather & fabric combos that were ordered at M+S - Handmade design market feat. Australian made in Sydney.

Did you know that you are welcome to choose your own leather & fabric combo? Just $195 for this convertible design. I make it in around 1-2 weeks, then post it to anywhere in Australia.
Hit me up!

I cannot tell you happy I am after 13 years in a “make-do” studio situation to be finally getting my sealed backyard studio space.

How do you like my new glass frontage?

This means I can see outside into nature and still have climate control, no wildlife inside (except my magpie friends), less dust & debris and much better lighting!

Sheer curtains still to come, but for now, a big thanks to Jay Jay & James Harris for bringing the muscle and preparing the area for Arch Aluminium Windows & Doors

Might have to have an open studio??? 🤗

Thank you, Sydney!
As always, the M+S - Handmade design market feat. Australian made was a great success. It’s so great to meet new friends, and I loved seeing many of you return to the market, with the plan to update your handbag collection. If you’re a returning customer, that means you trust the quality…and that means absolutely everything ❤️
I always have the Friday morning to go and explore. This time I walked through the botanical gardens in the glorious 23c sunshine and visited the archibaldprize , scored myself some “Vincent Van Toes” from the gallery shop and later watched the sun set from my cracker of an Airbnb on the waterfront in Balmain.
Will I be back? yes , yes I will. Bloody love Sydney! 🙌🏻
