It was only a few short months ago that I was pouring my heart and soul into the .store and I've almost nearly forgotten just how rewarding that experience was. Being able to form an idea in your mind, source the materials, begin building and then see it come to life is supremely satisfying. Now my attention has turned to taking the store online, which is another huge undertaking. Wish me luck.

As a small business owner, you have to assume many roles

Today I became a photographer to shoot some new stuff that we have going on at the .store

What's it's for? You will soon find out 🍂

Many thanks to for assisting.

Partially built over a waterfall, Fallingwater is a house designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935 in southwest Pennsylvania's Laurel Highlands. As the seasons change and the environment adapts, it stays as a constant in the beautiful landscape.

In just over 2 weeks time, the .store will be hosting some of the most talented ceramicists in Melbourne. I feel so honoured to be on board with this amazing event. The shelves will be brimming with ceramic treasure for every budget - from jewellery to tableware, sculptural art and objects – all created by hand using traditional and not-so-traditional techniques. Open 7-9 May at 149 Nicholson St, East Brunswick.

During one of my Maintenance visits, I was gently tending to some plants when a lovely lady came up behind me. She told me how the plants in the space bring her so much happiness and that it has inspired her to buy plants for her home. I could see in her eyes and by the tone in her voice that she was generally humbled by being in their presence. Small moments like these remind me why I was first drawn to plants and how powerful they can be. Nature is in all of us and it can't hurt to embrace it from time to time 🍂

Last years autumn window installation is bringing back fond memories of musky smelling leaf litter and damp, cool soil 🍂

A moment of ease.
