BrisStyle indie Designer Market

Hey there! Oh golly, my last post was April. Sorry it's been so long, but I've been busy studying and stuff.

Yesterday I attended the BrisStyle indie Designer Markets at Hamilton. Not as a stallholder, more a shopper and helper for the BrisStyle stand and music roadie for my Dad and Aidan.

Here are some photos from the day.

 Beautiful St Augustine's Church - 

home to the BrisStyle markets.

 Jetta's Nest make super duper cute 

kidswear for little monsters.

 Inside the hall was super busy.

My brother Aidan (left) and Dave adding a few tunes too. 

Loved their cover of Toxic by Britney Spears.

 My little score today from Bespoke, Little Deer Creations, 

Tree Tomato, SharlznDollz, and Green Me Up Granny.

I also bought this beautiful artwork for my parents by 

Chrissy Foreman Cranitch - 'Storms Bring Rainbows'.

Did you go? If you missed it, they'll be on again Friday 24th August in King George Square. Maybe I'll see you there.

Rain, rain, go away....

Yes, it's raining in Brisbane.  A lot.

Rainy markets are quite scary sometimes, especially when you're not prepared (like us). So I'm making a checklist of things we MUST do and pack before the next market. And what's the first thing on that list? Marquee weights!!   Don't want my marquee going up again, no sir-ee. How freakin' scary!!

Oh well, all you can do is laugh at the end of the day. Thank you everyone that helped us out on Saturday at the BrisStyle Indie Designer's Market. The speedy race with all our stock into the hall kitchen was brilliant, and nothing got damaged which is pretty awesome too!  Fingers crossed the weather clears and brings on a dazzling night for the BrisStyle Indie Twilight Market in King George Square, Brisbane - 17 December.  Very much looking forward to it.

Friday I'm in Love

Spring has sprung, and we're super duper excited to be at the BrisStyle Indie Designer Markets tomorrow.

One of the BrisStylers, Lemon Ink, will be there with some funky messenger style bags like this one. They're handmade from recycled materials that could have ended up as landfill, such as seatbelt straps and advertising billboards.

I love this one the most - the ACE Maxi Messenger bag.  I'm sure lots of 

dads would love it this Father's Day too.

You'll find Lemon Ink, Wicked Child Designs and many other BrisStylers tomorrow at the BrisStyle market. We'll be at St Augustine's Church Hall and grounds at Racecourse Road, Hamilton, from 9am till 2pm.  And not only will you get to do some fantastic shopping, but you can also get a '2 for 1' movie pass to the new award winning indie film, 'The Kids are Alright' starring Annette Benning and Mark Ruffalo. You'll also get a bonus pass for every ticket you purchase in the big BrisStyle raffle so you can take the whole family along!  Visit the Promo table to enter, and let them know how you found out about  the market to get your free '2 for 1' ticket.

Well, I better get back to packing the car.  Teneale x
