An Inspiration

My friend Georgia from One Small Room was interviewed for the 'Black Book' section in the Sunday Mail's Home lift-out [13th Feb, 2011]. Georgia mentioned that she gains inspiration from me!
Thank you Sweetie!

light of hope exhibition

You are invited to LIGHT OF HOPE, a photographic exhibition and fundraising event designed to assist Mardi Zeunert's quest to raise awareness and financial support for Plan’s GirlsFund.

In May, my friend Mardi will embark on a trip of a lifetime with a group of 18 Australians, to trek through the Himalayas in Nepal and see first hand Plan’s work in the region.

Plan’s GirlsFund was established to directly help identify and respond to the barriers girls face in communities. They recognise that discrimination against girls and women is one of the main underlying causes of child poverty. Plan’s projects in health, education and microfinance ensure that girls aren’t left behind.

The exhibition LIGHT OF HOPE features the unique photographic light painting by my favourite photographer Denis Smith!  Based in Adelaide, Denis has taken traditional photography and added a new dimension with his light creations – a photographic experiment aptly named Ball of Light.

The event is taking place at the Messagemark Design Studio, so this is also your chance to see where all the Messagemark magic happens!

100% OF TICKET SALES WILL BE DONATED TO PLAN'S GIRLSFUND. DENIS WILL ALSO DONATE 100% OF MONEY RAISED FROM THE SALE OF OPEN EDITION PRINTS, AND 10% FROM THE SALE OF LIMITED EDITION PRINTS.

Grange Twilight Markets

My friend Simorne and I want to make the most of the balmy summer evenings so thought what better way than to have an evening market down at the beach.

The Grange Twilight Market is designed to showcase locally made products, food, art and craft, cultural groups and live music, with the beautifully upgraded Grange foreshore acting as the perfect backdrop.

This time I will be wearing two hats at the market - a stall holder and market organiser!

Hope to see you there, and please help spread the word!

WHEN: Sunday evenings 6th, 13th & 20th February.
TIME: 5pm - 9pm
WHERE: Grange Waterfront Precinct, Adelaide

School Holiday Shenanigans

 

I had my niece and nephew stay last week so I planned some activities to keep them entertained. First we made miniature cupcakes, very tasty and sweet. They probably look normal size in the photo, but they were quite small and you could easily fit the whole thing in your mouth at once.

Then we ventured down to the beach to build a lounge room setting out of sand. We had big plans, a 3 seater couch, two single armchairs, coffee table and tv all facing the water. 3 hours later we only had the 3 seater couch and coffee table. Man did I sleep well that night after shoveling all that sand!!
