Alexandra Standen Ceramics
A mantel or shelf always calls for at least one large object and I wonder if anyone wouldn’t love for it to be something from Sydney ceramics artist, Alexandra Standen. I admit that I have only just recently discovered her work, but it’s without saying that I’m completely smitten and her ceramics are on my radar to add to my collection.
Amber Armitage Collection
I always admire people that take the big leap and the step out into the world to pursue their creative endeavours. Amber Armitage is one of them. I’ve met Amber a few times in the industry and beside the fact she’s such an amazing person, I’ve enjoyed watching her put together a very cool collection of her work.
Mimi Jung Weavings
I’ve wanted a textile wall hanging for just about forever now. I feel like it is the one thing missing from my collection. I know that it will be a bit of an investment though and life’s little expenses pop up and you know how it is, it gets put off yet again. I’m almost considering taking it up myself. It would be such a lovely and rewarding craft to do but I do wonder if I’d be happy to hang it when I look at amazing works of art like that of Mimi Jung’s weavings. Beautiful aren’t they?
Katia Carletti Ceramics
Handmade. Ceramics. Planters. These three would have to be one of the biggest homeware movements going around at the moment wouldn’t you say? We can’t get enough; well I know I certainly can’t. I find myself constantly scouring the stores or online to find something beautiful and handmade that I can dream about adding to my collection. Today I’m shining the spotlight on some lovely ceramics that I’ve been admiring on Instagram made by Adelaide artist, Katia Carletti.
Monmouth Glass Studio
When we look at a beautiful artisan product, quite often we are unaware of the beauty that takes place as the makers create their craft. I had the chance to witness Isaac and Steve of Monmouth Glass Studio, in the act of blowing glass earlier this month and the experience has certainly left an impression. I’ve long admired blown glass, but I was quite taken back by the surreal experience of watching this ancient craft.
Amanda Dziedzic Handblown Glass
Just yesterday, I discovered glass artist, Amanda Dziedzic through her newly released collaboration with Gorman Hometime. I love how Kit Gorman works with talented local and international artists and this particular collection is the sweetest limited edition glass carafe and tumbler set, all hand blown. I would have loved to have shown them here but the images were a little too small. They’d make a such a gorgeous gift, so do pop over to take a look.

Oh I know. Plants, we just can’t get enough of them right now. Well I certainly can’t. This would have to be one of my favourite trends happening at the moment and I really hope that it sticks around for a long, long time.
