Introducing my limited edition "K2 Scarf" designed and handmade by 'me'!

The K2 Scarf is inspired by the swanky style of the mid-twentieth century with an added modern twist... a reversible design!

The new range features Adelaide designed fabrics from Surface Art Textile Design. Each scarf is delivered beautifully packaged in a square gift box, and also includes the extremely cute 'how to tie' instruction flyer! I found the K2 Scarf model on one of my vintage sewing patterns!

No cookie cutters here... each scarf is made in a limited run, be quick so you don't miss out!

Last weekend we started our Kitchen/Laundry renovation. The idea is to do the laundry first, and get it to a state where we can use it as a mini kitchen while the kitchen reno is in progress.

So far Denis removed all the cupboards, pulled off the tiles and wall paper. We then had plumbers move all the taps down below cupboard height. Next a plasterer popped by to re-plaster the wall and fill the odd crack.

Right, now we are at painting stage. Heading to the paint shop tonight to select the colours... Going for charcoal door, white window and trim, and Dulux Pale Tendrill Half for the walls.

The flat pack cupboards are waiting patiently in our garage to be assembled and installed hopefully this weekend. Yes if all goes to plan we are hoping to finish this product (except tiling) this weekend...Painting, new power points, cupboards installed, taps connected, new lighting and shelves etc.

VERY EXCITING. Will post more photos here when complete!

On the weekend Denis and I were delighted to visit the very first pop up "Breakfast Rave" held in the Barossa Valley. Organised by my dear friend Cherie, along a team of like minded foodies from the Barossa, the Rave is a spontaneous community event expected to pop up in various iconic Barossa locations.


Sunday's event was held at the Angaston Train Station. No longer in use, it was the perfect backdrop for this sustainable breakfast affair. I love the fact that a new breath of life was given to this old building even if only for a day!


We even got to take home an heirloom tomato plant in a compostable pot as a thank you for supporting the first event! Actually the whole event was compostable ... all cups, plates, forks, bin bags and food scraps were compostable and thrown straight into the Rave's compost! I'm impressed!


Breakfast was divine, Spanish style slow-cooked beans with free range poached eggs, grilled sourdough and a dollop of natural yoghurt - all for only $10. Oh yeah, top that with some coriander and chilli!

Finished with a gluten free chocolate brownie by Scullery Made Tea. YUMBO! And I must say, I think I had the best Mocha I've ever had from Barossa Coffee Roasters - a big call but it is true!
