Love & Clutter...


I love this little yellow weathered & loved
stool, playfully holding the 'Love & Clutter'
store cards.
 A great store find in Hobart [Tasmania] Love & Clutter I stumbled upon on Murray Street whilst en-route to brunch on holiday... This lovely store has an eclectic mix of [new] hand-made locally crafted items and re-purposed pieces, along side local designers, Ruby Victoria Letterpress, Notions lovely fashion accessories and Little Black Crows very cute little stuffed bunnies and other creatures. Those who know me & follow this blog would understand, naturally I was instantly drawn to their window display with their typographic '&' character on their store cards, timber characters and store bags. The I dug a little deeper and found that my talented blog friend Narelle who runs & owns 'Ruby Victoria Letterpress' is behind the 'Love & Clutter' logo card 'commission! Well done! So if you're visiting Hobart be sure to check out 'Love & Clutter' located 31 Murray Street, Hobart Tasmania. Enjoy. S x

I'm back from our first family holiday away - Isabelle did so well being pulled from pillar to post and on a jet plane - from Sydney to Hobart to Cradle Mountain [Tasmania] and back again. She had her first 'real' snow at Mt Wellington  Cradle Mountain, and her first bustling markets experience at the fabulous Salamanca Markets, Salamanca [Hobart]. It was at Salamanca where I came across so many wonderful local craftspeople. One in particular caught my eye...the very talented and friendly Narelle [Badalassi] who runs and owns 'Ruby Victoria Letter Press & Printmaking'. I have always loved letterpress and printmaking was one of my favourite prac-studios at uni. Here are a few pics I took of Narelle's amazing stand at the Salamanca Markets. I fell in love with all of it - especially the Babushka [tea towel], the owl book marks, and the letter press note cards 'Hugs & XX's'! I'm sure you'll find your favourites too! S xxx
