colour

i adore colour.

i love the way it picks up a space.  it changes the intensity of the atmosphere in a room.  

it affects mood.

it is such a trigger.

colour.  clever colour.

yesterday i went to a workshop run by a bunch of designers and stylists who know a whole lot about colour.

(the conclusion being, that i too, know a lot about colour.  a good end result, really).

the panel was

 mr. jason grant

the truly divine megan morton

greg natale

and belle magazine editor at large anne-maree sergeant.

powerful bunch of creatives.

gorgeous sunny yellow everywhere.


a great workshop.

for the love of yellow...oh..and shibori.

i had such a fun day yesterday.

i spent a couple of hours with the delightful pepa and karen from 

shibori.

they had only just moved into their new super-cool warehouse space and had kindly agreed to help me out on an upcoming project.

my buzz words were

yellow

dip dye

oh, and did i mention yellow?  lots of yellow.

so, much fun.

without giving too much away with my project,.

if this was my lounge room, i would be happy.

(they have been there for 3 days!!! mental)

yellow.  gorgeous, sunny yellow.

shibori headquarters.

i've said it before, and i'll say it again.  these girls are going to be huge.  they are that delightful mix of gorgeous personality and a bunch of talent.

shibori.  the new ikat.

get onto it.

here is a 'carrie' update.

i gave her a lick of paint yesterday.  (black fox - the same as the house)

did a spot'o'sign'painting.  (not giving up my day job)

and stained the deck,

planted some agapanthus,

styled her up a little.

and here you go!

i can see acreage somewhere with 20 or so vintage vans resting in the grass.  all of them painted and styled.

outdoor showers hanging from trees.

firepits.

bathtubs under the stars.

veggie patches.

chooks roaming.

who wants to stay in *my* caravan park for the christmas holidays!?
