Hello, its been a while since my last post.  Just so you know, I have something bigger & better in the works so I'm saving up my posts for this special something.  Cant wait to share it with you.  I'll still be posting here but not as frequently.  Watch this space.. or rather, keep up to date on twitter https://twitter.com/designlaneway where I'll be announcing my news there in about 4 weeks. Squeal! xx

They dont call it Incredible India for nothing.  Here is just a tiny glimpse of my journey to India.  The first 3 pics are obvious.. the Taj Mahal!  I've always dreamt of going & it really is just magical in person (even in 46 degree heat!)  Pic 4 is of Central Terminus in Mumbai.  The architecture is mix of gothic colonial, Hindi & Muslim.  Just amazing. The next two are of some beautiful doors & archways I came across.  India has just gorgeous antique doors & I love the way they design an archway.  Always such a entrance. The postcard & kitsch Bollywood poster I bought from Bombay Electric in Mumbai.  A really cool fashion & design store next to the Taj Palace hotel in Mumbai.  The last 2 pics are of the Hotel Oberoi Amarvilas. A flawless hotel with a mix of colonial & Indian design.  The view from our hotel room was the Taj Mahal.. not a bad view to wake up to!  I had an awesome time India. One I'll cherish forever. xx

Finders Keepers market = YAY!!!  I get so excited when this bi-annual market of crafty delights is on. This time they moved the market to Redfern Technology Park to fit approx 3 times as many stalls. Win! I was like a kid in a candy store!  I didn't know where to start, I was giddy with excitement.  To say I was impressed is an under statement. So many different creative ventures offering such unique & original designs.  I only managed to get 3 pics & then my battery died (tisk tisk), but here they are. Pic 1. Posy anyone?  How can you resist!  The Sweet Little Posy Shop. Pic 2. Love these fun & coloured cards from AHD Paper Co. Pic 3. I bought the mint coloured one porcelain dish. Sweet!  Check out the Finders Keepers site for all the Designers, Stores & Galleries - http://www.thefinderskeepers.com/

Yesterday I popped in to the Museum of Contemporary Art retail store down at Circular Quay.  They have some wonderful books on art & design.. plus some great home wares.  I bought these two Tom Dixon copper bowls & this Pantone Book.  Cant wait to get stuck in & flip through the pages.
