Gypsy Caravan

Lately my mum has been revisiting the idea of having a gypsy caravan as a studio to do her watercolour paintings. Hopefully this doesn't mean she will pack her suitcase and run off to Romania! But it makes me think how we all have a dream lifestyle or place. Mine would be a tiny cottage in a meadow boarding a fairytale forest or a teepee on a deserted, tropical island. How about an amazing treehouse or an old barn? What would yours be?

Type-tastic!

There are some fantastic typography designs out at the moment. My favourite is this print by Old Tom Foolery. It's simple, clever and quirky!

Here are a few others that I could definitely make room for in my house.

1. Kew tea towel by Poulier+Poulier, 2. Eyechart cushion by Auntie Cookie, 3. Come In and Go Away doormat by SUCK UK 4. Vintage Letterpress wood numbers 0-9 by Turners Collectibles 5. Ampersand cushion by Auntie Cookie, 6. Hardwork - Optical Test Chart tea towel by Poulier+Poulier

These are a hoot!

I know owls have been around a while now but that's for good reason, they are so darn cute and great to use as a design element. I spotted these little cuties at The Works (a shop associated with Bed, Bath N' Table) in Hawthorn and just had to have them both. They are made by Morgan & Finch.
