I'm a sucker for a good window display, while walking down Brunswick street late one evening i was drawn to this beautiful burst of colour hanging in the window of a stationery store. I love that it's got some much going on in one small space, I just had to share!
Well it has been a crazy few weeks, with graduating and starting a new job but I am super excited for what the future holds and thats why i thought these lovely calander post cards would be a nice little treat for myself to celebrate new beginings and the new year ahead. They feature a collection of beautiful prints by Catherine Campbell, who I mentioned in my very first post. I can't wait untill they arrive in the post!
I got got up at the crack of dawn on Sunday and headed off on the train, i wanted to get the most out of my day in the city, and i did just that. I managed to see the Miff60 at Acmi which was excellent!
I then popped across to the carpark to check out the Design Market, which was buzzing with people. There were so many great stalls it took quite a while to get round to all of them but it was well worth it. I picked up a baby size keep cup and some lovely stationary from the note maker pop up shop. I decided i had time for another market and jumped on a tram to the North Melbourne Markets. More great stalls, lots of vintage, i fell in love with a little carousel necklace and bought some Letter Flags to make "millie" bunting.
Later that day i met up with my lovely cousin for some pre-gig dumplings and a photo booth stop off. Then onto the highlight of the day, Seeker Lover Keeper at the Thornbury Theatre, which is such an exquisite old building. The gig was amazing, three Australian Lovelies singing their hearts out. All in all it was a great, fun filled day.
I love love love these recycled cardboard stationery organisers from french online store adonde which come in in my favourite colour, grey. I spend way to much money on stationery and as tempting as these are, they will have to wait and be put on my wish list.
I just love this idea! A box of greeting cards for every occasion, this brown box from Kate Spade contains 15 cards and envelopes in a range of colours each with a quirky greeting on the front. I love sending cards and letters to my friends and family and these would be perfect for just that.
I went for a wander down to Salt Marsh yesterday and found they stocked some of the Poppies for Grace range of stationary. I have been looking for some nice writing paper for a while now and when i saw this set i couldn't resist. I also picked up some "this book belongs to" stickers which will come in handy will all the new books i've been given lately.
I recently bought this beautiful old typewriter from an antique store in Warrnambool, I've only used it a couple of times since i bought it but i think it will be nice to use when writing letters. Something a little different and special.
I love the sound of the keys bashing away.
