Mermaids & Things

Remember Zilasaule? It was love at first sight, if you recall.

I'm still following their blog and really find their work inspiring.

Fun, fresh and original, just look at their latest plush and puppets.

I can't wait to see what they come up with next!

Happy Colour My Monday!

A Modern Menagerie

 

 I joined etsy recently and I'm really enjoying it.

I've always used this site as an online resource, and thought I knew it pretty well... 

until I looked a little closer.

Every day I'm amazed by the sheer number of talented artists, makers and designers out there.

Thanks for the modern nursery art inspiration:
