introducing...


THE cutest opshop in town. my bestie volunteered for a few hours today, helping tidy and sort through all the donations. She worked with jill, who was a lovely older lady from the UK who has been helping out at stevo's since it opened late last year. I came away with bags of goodies and even though four thousand has talked about it already, i still think they need more of us stopping by. If only for the cute cardigans and lovely ladies behind the counter. Let me know what you think if you visit. Corner of cavendish and chatsworth roads, coorparoo. I'm smitten.

oppies, besties, sushi, donuts.


coorparoo, norman park & bulimba oppies, bless.
ceramic s&p shakers, pot holders, handmade mushroom, and dinner plates galore.

gorgeous old photos that i'll frame and a lovely pillowcase for moi.


gorgeous curtains for the studio. $6 for the pair. yum.
