Looking for something to do in Brisbane this weekend?

Well then I have just the thing for you! Yeah I know, you've done everything and been everywhere. Well I can tell you about something thats never been on before!

A special store event at Brisbane Pop Culture!

If you havent been to the store yet, then you are seriously missing out. The artwork on the building exterior alone will have you staring in amazement for a good 15 minutes, and then when you get inside you'll probably spend twice as long staring in amazement at their awesome range of products. 

I'll be there in the carpark selling a sweet selection of my hand-made goodness. But there will also be a Delorean, the epic time travelling automobile from the Back to The Future films!

Given we've been stung recently by a market that didnt go ahead, it would be great to see as many people down there on the day to support local Brissy businesses. Brisbane Pop Culture are even doing a 'Free with Purchase' offer when you spend $50 or more in store.

Remember to RSVP and share with your friends!

Panic Stations!

Its one week to Greazefest and two weeks to Rockabilly Riot and as such I have hit panic stations!

I have also developed the sick, probably due to lack of sunlight, stress and not enough sleep. 

Yes, I hear you say "Calm down Sheina, everything will work out fine" and whilst I'm confident everything will work out fine on the day, I'm a manic worry-wart, and completely unable to calm myself down. 

I have a very high expectation of myself and my work. And I wouldn't feel right standing there next Saturday morning and thinking, "If I had just pushed myself a bit more, I could have made 10 more of this or 10 more of that"

I also set myself the mammoth task of not only over-hauling and re-designing every element of my jewellery line but I also (rather ambitiously) began designing and making proto-types on a completely new range. I came to the realisation at 1am this morning after a quick evaluation that the range will not be entirely ready for debut at Greazefest like I had hoped but I will have some of it ready. You've probably seen the teaser roller doors on my website. 

And no, I'm not gonna tell you exactly what it is just yet. I think its such a great idea for a line I'm scared shit-less someone will pinch the idea and concept. But all will be revealed in good time. ;)

At the moment I'm taking comfort in the fact that there are lots of other equally stressed and tired people prepping for Greazefest too, and I'm not alone. 

So, get your glad rags out Brisbane people. NEXT WEEKEND, I shall see you there. 

August Market Dates!

August is shaping up to be a huge month for me in terms of BIG markets. 

First up: We are doing Greazefest again. I had such a great time last year I absolutely had to go again. Big update to this years event is that it runs for TWO DAYS (Saturday 3/8 and Sunday 4/8) which means I will be one hell of an exhausted creeper that Sunday night!

For full event details see the Greazefest website: http://www.greazefest.com/

For full event details see the Rockabilly Riot website: http://www.rockabillyriot2013.com/

THEN the following weekend I have another huge 2 day event at Rockabilly Riot at the Brisbane Convention Centre, which is shaping up to be a massive event with some great exhibitors on board and some huge bands coming to play. 

So essentially I will not be sleeping for the last two weeks of July and first two weeks of August trying to cook up enough stock to cover these two great events. 

I am hyper excited though its going to be great fun. 

If anyone in Australia wanted an excuse to travel to Brisbane, First two weeks of August would deifnitely be the time to do it!
