'Owl' bookmark by Ruby Victoria Letterpress & Printmaking |
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

For more of Narelle's work be sure to either visit her at the Salamanca Markets, Hobart Tasmania held on Saturdays or visit her blog HERE, and her Etsy.com store HERE.
A BIG Thanks to Narelle for a lovely chat whilst I was visiting her beautiful stand & town, and for allowing me to take images of her gorgeous work at the markets. S xx
