Market 102: Young Designers Market - Southbank


Thank goodness this market wasn't held on Saturday...it was sweltering! Instead we had a weird mixture of sun, clouds, rains splotches and humidity - go Brisbane! Actually we had a gorgeous time at the Young Designers Market on Sunday: setting up and taking down seemed easier (and faster) and the best bit was all the great people we met (alot more than the last market)...some of you even admitted to reading the blog -which brought big smiles to our faces (shy cyber waves to you).

Sam's skateboard goodies attracted a lot of attention - the new stand shows the neckware and bangles off perfectly!

Ellie's friend Christy Sibley made these gorgeous owl softies - we thought they looked so snug in the basket and people kept walking by and giving them a squeeze...and strangely...smelling them - no seriously! It made me smile everytime it happened - and I thought it would be a great idea to have them stuffed with a bit of dried lavender and you could tuck them away in your fabric stash draws and shelving to repel those nasty fabric eating silverfish!
I'm also hoping the chickadees who had a tricky time choosing fabrics and patterns to go with a gorgeous quilt send us piccies of what the room looks like when they're done decorating!

We'll be at the Boutique Markets at Portside next Sunday - come say hi!
