in the news.


i got a call today from isobel, one of the girls who started suitcase rummage. I've been asked to take part in a photoshoot for city news with 3 or so other rummagers. I'm very excited as i believe this rummage will be the best so far and i have so many delightful treats for sale. You'll be seeing two (both with satin interiors) of the three suitcases i have planned for displaying on the 6th. Looking forward to seeing many of you there. Much rummage love. (suitcase from natural home's etsy)

rummage round 2.

what a beautiful brisbane mother's day. weather was lovely and we had quite the crowd rummage through our treasures. shared the day with my bestie sarah and it was perfect. sushi and starbucks kept us fed and watered and the retro fabrics were a real hit. It's going to be a monthly thing now, so you'll definately catch me at the next one with more vintage deliciousness. here are some pics from the day. hope your sunday was just as gorgeous.
