Friday, I love you


Just got home from a shoot, and now to race down and watch the Canucks in game 5. Please play better tonight boys. For you hockey fans out there, below is a snap of Roberto Luongo and Simon Gagne at a bar after the World Jr.'s wrapped up in Winnipeg. It was 1999 and they were only 18. Even though Canada had to settle for silver (Russia won that year) Luongo played way better than he has, of late. ;)


Have a great weekend everyone! Back soon!

A Day on Earth


I found my personal mecca the other day. We went to beautiful Daylesford, about 90 minutes out of Melbourne, and checked out Shed 4 - A Day on Earth. I think I heard angels singing. This shop (it's actually a huge warehouse) is owned by
David Bromley, a fabulous British born (raised in Australia) artist. He really is one of my favourites. 

The warehouse was full of vintage crates, old worker's lockers, David's art, pottery and even a couple of Japanese coin operated kiddie rides. Absolute heaven. So sad to leave it all behind.

A fabulous box table featuring art by David Bromley, coin operated kiddie ride, and the chair that I can't get out of my mind. Love that colour.

Vintage paddles adorned with Bromley faces (my friend, Nikki, would love these), the backside of a plate, and a quartet of illuminated children. My husband plans on purchasing the blue girl. We adored her. Wouldn't she make a fabulous "greeter" in a front hall?

The last few days have been incredible. The air is so clean and fresh here in Kyneton, and the smell of gum trees is amazing. Ahh, Australia.
