My Top Five

I recently joined a new group, BrisStyle, so today I have decided to do a spotlight on Handmade in Brisbane! All the fabulous items below are made by Brisbane locals. Make sure you also check out the BrisStyle Blog - and if you're a local, they're holding a market this Saturday, at Hamilton Town Hall.


Twinkle Star Art - Personalised portrait



Wicked Child Designs - Dame Edna



Pedrosprout - Neon Blue Dotty Baby Booties



Sharlzndollz - Babushka Doll




Knitwish - Montague Mouse


If you'd like to submit a spotlight on local sellers in your home town, I would LOVE to hear from you!

Thursday's Finds

Kylie from Avonlea Design makes the loveliest applique bibs.
She says of this one: It is handcrafted with care, made from quality soft white flannelette and the back is made from fleece for extra absorbency.


A pretty bird is appliquéd onto the front, and it is bound using Joel Dewberry designer fabrics. So stylish - it would be perfect as a special bib to take out.


These beautiful All About Heidi pre-walker shoes are from Sally at Fairy Kisses boutique. They are are crafted from a single piece of leather! They have a velcro tab, and can also be adjusted for width by loosening the leather ties on the heels and toes. And my favourite colour too.

Week 2 - Monday's Finds

Rachel from Knitwish sells these cuties in her etsy store (along with some adorable knitted toys!).
These lovely hand knitted baby booties in two shades of blue have matching pearlised buttons and crossover straps for that vintage look. Perfect for keeping little toes warm!
They would make a gorgeous baby shower or welcome to the world gift for a new baby.



Tammy found this Batik Kimono Top and Pants set at etsy's Ogekko store.
The top is made from an authentic indonesian batik matched with a dark green quilter's cotton.
The batik top is bound around the edges (not sleeves) with the dark green fabric and ties on the inside (with white ribbon) and on the outside.

The pants are a wide-legged, cropped style with an elasticised waist and co-ordinating batik borders around the hems.

Great finds, thank you!

Wednesday's Finds

Just in time! I've had a busy day, along with a horrid flu, but we have our entries for Wednesday.
Both of today's items were found by Sarah, who doesn't have a blog for us to link too just yet.

These adorable embroidered felt baby shoes are another etsy find, from the Embroidery Baby shop.
They are simply stunning, in bright red felt with yellow embroidery, they certainly would be, as claimed in the store, for the baby who's not afraid of standing out from the footwear crowd!

Sarah also found us this very sweet Baby Girl Cross Over Set - Jacket and Pants, from ShipShap, on Made It. Made from 100% cotton interlock, it would be a perfect gift for a newborn.

Let me know what you think of our entries so far, I'd love to hear from you!
