courtney & matthew

Ta-dah!...save the date...tick....and now Courtney & Matthew's pretty pretty invitation pack...tick! We totes love this letterpress design (if we do say so ourselves...!) with it's subtle blind debossing, hand stamped tag and hand-drawn map. Their wedding is to be held back in their native South Africa on a picturesque farm...a perfect stationery match we think with it's earthy tones and natural stocks. Keep your eyes peeled for their wedding pics in a few months time!

kelly & gareth

How sweet it is indeed! Congratulations to Kelly & Gareth on their stunning candy coloured wedding! Beautiful scenery, beautiful flowers and beautiful people. We loved working on their custom designed stationery which included a little stitched booklet invitation with maps, directions and accommodation, menus, table numbers and various signage. Wishing you all the best guys! Love Lula & Bella x

bizarre bazaar

I was off to met the girls for a cheeky Thursday night vino when I stumbled across bizarre bazaar!! Nestled in the cozy Angel Place laneway just off George, this twilight fashion market oozes atmosphere. It's hosted by the creative nuts at A Series of Fortunate Events on the last Thursday of every second month....you with me?! Absolutely love the suspended bird cages (of which there were hundreds) and the models striking their pose at every corner! A few of my favs were Generalao, Doury, Lonely Kids Club and Veblen's Vice. Well worth a visit!

Say hello to our new friend and talented artist Fiona Verity,  you can see more of her work at fionaverity.blogspot.com.au. Working in intaglio print and watercolour we love her fresh, vibrant take on a very traditional printing method.

easels on the esplanade & manly artist market

A bit of rain and wind but all was not lost - we thawed ourselves out in the sun and enjoyed prime waterfront views,  thank you to Manly council for organising such a fab event! So great to have an opportunity to showcase local talent, such creativity on our doorstep. Some of our favourites on the day were live illustrations from Nicky Crowley (check out her blog Forestonia) and George Hambov (check out his site here) also have a look at the beautiful print work of Manly artist/illustrator and teacher Fiona Verity.
