Smile on Mondays..

Posted on 1:19 AM by fdgdfg
What a fabulous weekend it has been and now Monday has also come and gone and I am still beaming with joy! Sorry about my lack of a post last night, I was fabulously busy making a little custom order for the amazing BugandPop and a little commissioned tea cup artwork for a friend at work.

After a beautiful session of Yoga at Eleventh Street Yoga I'm all chilled out and very happy to be sharing the lovely moments of my weekend with you. My biggest accomplishment for the weekend was shifting my little cottage around to create an office space for my growing little business. The moments of sprawling all over the lounge room are now transformed into a beautiful space that my darling hubby helped me create. I'm so delighted that I now have a space to create as well as a lovely little office to pack up my goodies, write and design. It even has a chandelier!

My lovely office..

Desk complete with inspiration board and a cup holder that doubles perfectly to hold all my ribbon.

Close up of all my bit and pieces including my beautiful Hens Teeth journal, postcards from Marmee Craft and November Moon and one of my favourite creations, my tree house pin cushion.

In tray table with op shop fabric, vintage tin, garage sale tea cup and beautiful owl print, a gift from my sister.

I am loving so many things this week I just have to share them all with you!

My hubby's yummy Saturday morning pancakes.

My beautiful vintage find of the week - Italian leather gloves in their original box. How could I resist! Now I just have to wait for winter..

Finally..... My brooch back supplier called me with wonderful news, they arrived! Now I have over 200 brooch backs and many many new brooches to create.

Some very girly fabric I found in the depths of the Spotlight pile. Lovely fabric makes me smile.

My very favourite new friend Ruby.
We finally got our lovely parrot Mallee a big cage to spread his wings in, which also meant we could get him a girlfriend. Ruby is a very special Opaline Red Rump Parrot, although she is a little shy, I think she is already fond of her new boy.

I hope everyone has had a delightful start to the week. I'm off to curl up on the couch with my hubby and check out some of the lovely frocks and awards from the Oscars.

Much love and joyful moments of inspiration..

On the Eve of Christmas...

Posted on 12:12 AM by fdgdfg
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas, full of peace, love, joy and champagne!

I have had a fabulous day pottering around the antique stores in Paddington, Brisbane searching for some lovely vintage bits and pieces for my new pieces I'm currently dreaming up. Just thought I would share with you some of the beautiful things I found.

The best Antique store in Queensland!

Miss Posh Poodle- for everything vintage!

Beautiful embroided napkins, ribbon and stunning white gloves.

Thanks so much to the lovely Rebecca from Edward and Lilly for the wonderful feature of my fabric brooches on her blog. My signature brooches will be available almost as soon as I return from holidays on the 30th of December. I am currently taking orders so if you have a lovely quote or favourite book you would like on a brooch please email me at sophieisobeldesigns@hotmail.com

Well I'm off to have a lovely evening with my family, we are having dinner at Salon, a stunning restaurant at Teneriffe.

May you enjoy many Christmas carols, cards and cuddles!
