A wooly window.

One of our absolute favourite things about our shop are the enormous front windows and one of our favourite things to do on a quiet afternoon is to potter about putting in new window displays.

Kyla is a little obsessed with yarn bombing at the moment so we thought we'd herald in the cold weather with a yarn bombed window.

We gathered Nanna blankets from the local op shops and were gifted lots of lovely bits and pieces by our crafty friends which we sewed together to make a huge wooly curtain for our big window.

We decorated the lamp, and one of our old chairs with some French knitting and more Nanna blankets. Plus we've showcased some of the beautiful wooly wares we have in store (check out this amazing hand loomed poncho by Dash Robin).
We also uncovered lots of little hats in the stash from Kate so now the shop critters are nice and cosy too.
And for our small window we constructed a wee Gnome hideaway, complete with snow capped mountains.
What fireside crafts are you planning to keep you cosy this winter?

Sunday session

A lovely way to spend a Sunday at the shop - hanging out with interesting peeps and screen printing.

Images from 1 year (almost)

It is almost a year since we formed the crazy idea that we could open a shop filled with all the amazing things we loved and made! Our official first birthday is a little further off but to celebrate Bec and I becoming rockin' business partners I thought I would share some of my favourite images of the shop over the past year...it's been a fantastically wild time and we are so excited for the next one...heaps more big things to come.
