Recently my family and I visited Brisbane's GOMA (Gallery of Modern Art) and checked out Cai Guo-Qiang's exhibit Falling Back To Earth. It totally blew my mind. I just hope my pictures do it some justice but if you ever get the chance to see his work, do it you won't be disappointed.
Also this last month I got my first sale on my etsy store. I was excited to get a custom order that was to be a present for someone else. It is nice to have someone like what you do and actually want to pay you for it!
I love to crochet but I have admit my skills are limited. I wanted to challenge myself to create anything other than a granny square! After admiring many mandala rugs on pinterest I found some great inspiration, and found the perfect pattern. But unfortunately the pattern did not work for me, so I am making do with the start from the pattern for around the first 3 rounds and then making up my own! So far it's looking good..will keep you updated!
Maria George! You get me every time with your gorgeous collars and embellishments. I just couldn't resist this cute lace collar which I got from Spotlight for only $6.50AUD. Sewing it onto a cheap t-shirt I got from Target, I have ended up with a one of a kind shirt for only $14.00AUD. I get a giddy when something I picture in minds eye actually turns out ok! :)
Mother's Day. We love a celebration in my family. Any chance we get we love to get together and share a meal. My sister and I took on the role of cooks this year (even though she is a mum herself) and let our mum take it easy for once. This is how my family celebrated the day for mums….
Mine was actually a Raspberry blissmas cake as I could not find any strawberry's in store at this time of year. I also made my sponge as the recipe states you can use a store bought one. My recipe for a Never fail sponge cake by one of my favourite CWA ladies Merle Parrish is here.
All the recipes were tried and tested and absolutely devoured by my family! We will be definitely making them again.
Food, craft, art and sewing some of my favourite things! I hope you have had a divine month and I promise it won't be so long between posts next time!
