Shadows...

I haven't spotted a shadow for a while. Here's one I found earlier. Well, last week. 

I took this photo in Ngong Ping, near the Po Lin Monastery in Hong Kong. People put incense in these. It smells nice. If you want to see more of our trip feel free to flick through our Flickr site. It's slowly progressing.

Josh Thomas

When Tim and I went to Melbourne last month, we went saw Josh Thomas do stand up at the Lithuanian Club. He did an awesome show as always, but he didn't have time for autographs at the end. I was kinda down after that, as through the show I'd been tossing up whether or not I ask for an autograph or not. I'd never done this before, and it felt kind of a weird thing to do. And then after deciding I would, I didn't get to. The next day Tim and I went shopping at Rose St Markets and Brunswick St shops, and Tim spotted Josh going into a shop ahead of us. It was now or never - eek. Like a stalker, I followed him and got a cute autograph. Oh and on the night of the show I got this shadow shot on the ceiling of the club.

Back to Brisvegas

Am hitting the sack early tonight as we've just got back this afternoon from Melbourne and we're pretty pooped. So I'll keep this post short and sweet with some random snaps from our travels last week. First up is our shadow shot this week. If you want to do a shadow shot, head over to Tracy's blog Hey Harriet.

Sea birds at The Nobbies on Phillip Island.

At Yarra River in Melbourne.

Me on super huge purse in Melbourne.

Rose St Markets

Crazy dude at the Rose St Markets (Grant ?). He smelt of whiskey, and he was happy.

The lovely Anna Blandford, half the team of Able and Game (Gareth does Sunday market) at Rose St Market, Melbourne.

I found Meet Me at Mike's, but they closed early to party. I totally understand. It was a Saturday after all.

Holidays

My husband and I will be heading to Melbourne this week on holiday. The shop will stay open for people to wander through, but anything purchased will be sent Monday 12th October. I haven't been in blogland for a bit (apologies everyone) and thought I'd return with a shadow shot of my nephew at soccer. Looking forward to some market shopping and sight seeing in the next few days. Happy weekend everyone. xo Teneale

Short and sweet

We visited Nook last night

And came home with some goodies

One goodie being this 'fit as a fiddle' brooch for my violinist husband Tim

Tim did the Bridge to Brisbane this morning with his grandmother Birdie

He had a well deserved nap in the park

And so did Birdie

I found another birdie in the park. She shall be my shadow shot today. Visit the BrisStyle blog this week to see yours truly. I'll have a giveaway too :o

Good night xo

4ZZZ Radiothon

Wicked Child Designs made an appearance at the 4ZZZ Radiothon market on Saturday. The lovely Tess Curran, feature writer for Peppermint Magazine, fell in love with Kevin Rudd. May they spend the rest of their lives discussing the big challenges confronting Australia. I also found Holly and her cute store Pannikin at the market. I love her little animal necklaces and owl brooches. Katie from Miss Kitty Boo Boo also marketeered with her gorgeous hair clips, head bands and clothing. I couldn't resist a pair of Katie's lady beetle clips. I know a cute little girl that will love these for xmas. I also bought a 'sew cool' badge to replace one that had a mishap in my dryer... This is my shadow shot for this week, taken outside the 4ZZZ carpark. Want to do a shadow shot ? Get to Hey Harriett now. Right now. xo Teneale

Thirty

I haven't blogged for a whole week, so this could be a long one.... First of all, I'd like to post some photos from the Ekka last Sunday, starting with this weeks shadow shot of my brother. I also turned 30 this week, and partied with friends and family on Oxford St, Bulimba. I was very spoilt, and also surprised with a couple of secret BrisStyler gifts. Here I am showing off what BrisStyler Helen from Ruby 2 GoGo dropped off in my letterbox. I received a pair of black button earrings (hard to see with my new do), black new moon soda pop cuff, and a black Scooter Girl necklet. Oh and there was yummy organic milk chocolate too, but it didn't last long enough for a photo - oops. My very own My Little Sunshine bag with matching purse from Nosovich. I can't believe my husband hid this in his dresser for a month without me knowing (plus he now has his own account on Etsy lol). My mum found this book for me. I had mentioned this book to her a few months ago, totally not expecting it. So cool, looking forward to making the quilt. And the scrabble pouch. And the... Sorry had to stop myself there. This was one of the less secret presents I received from my family (I picked it out). A huge upgrade to my previous machine. Thank you xoxoxo Thank you everyone for your lovely gifts and birthday wishes this week. I truly loved feeling a bit special. Want to see Wicked Child Designs in person? Come see me at the 4zzz market next Saturday 22nd August (in the 4zzz carpark, Fortitude Valley) , from 10am-4pm. We will also be at the YDM at Southbank on September 6th. xoxo Teneale

Morningside Festival 2009

Tim and I have just arrived home after marketeering at the Morningside Festival, and I am ready to hit the wall.... I don't know why but I never seem to sleep before a market. All the excitement, the 'oooh are they going to like this, maybe i should do this instead...' thoughts wrecking your head, and then your alarm goes off. Argh!!! But before I head to la la land, I'm going to post some piccies up (and a shadow somewhere in amongst it). Here are a few shots of our stall today. And here is the lovely Helen from Ruby 2 GoGo with her awesome stall. Last but not least is my shadow shot taken today. This poor clown couldn't get very far on her bike without being interrupted by her mobile. Happy Shadow Shot Sunday everyone. Check out Tracey's blog Hey Harriet to find out what all this 'Shadow Shot' business is all about. xo Teneale zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

My Dad the Super Hero

Last Sunday my husband and I went to the Gold Coast to see my dad run the Gold Coast Marathon. I caught him flying along near the finish. We needed some energy food to keep us focused. Tiny Teddies work a treat. And a tree looked a little too inviting not to climb.

My shadow shot this sunday is the red man at the beginning of this post. Well done Dad, and the rest of the Red Man Runners, on your huge marathon run. If you would like to join in the SSS fun, go see Hey Harriet. xo Teneale

Shadow Shot Sunday #12

Let's go shopping... at Hyperdome... No we're not going to the hyperdome, or any shopping centre for that matter. Instead, we headed to the BrisStyle Indie Designer Markets in Hamilton this weekend, and it was so much fun !! An early start is difficult in Winter, but you just have to remind yourself - there's air con in the car, there's air con in the car... Here's our stall, which got a little crowded at times (this was my one opportunity to take a photo which showed the signage). Megan from Nosovich shared the stall with us, and exhibited some of her gorgeous bags and purses. Great designs, and the best quality in workmanship. This is one of her bags, My Little Sunshine, that I personally adore (again big fan of yellow:). It will be going on my birthday wishlist... Oh and today is Sunday, so for Shadow Shot Sunday my pic is the shopping trolley at the start of this post. It was taken yesterday and quickly filled with my purchases at the market. My purchases were my first copy of Peppermint magazine (yay finally found you !), a button from Red Seed Studio (recycled from a skateboard, how rad !) and a stationery set from Twinkle Star Art. Oh and of course I couldn't pass up a cupcake from Tabitha's Place (it was morning tea time, and they were $2. Need I say more ?) Have a great Sunday everyone, and if you would like to join in the SSS fun head to Hey Harriet's blog. And if you would love to know what BrisStyle is all about head to their blog too. xo Teneale
