I am very Proud to have my first Post back at Kookie Kids being the 'Magical Shop' Called

The Pixie Collective is a New Concept Created by two Beautiful Fairies with a Magical idea, an idea I must admit I am very excited to be involved in. The Pixie Collective is a shop ran by designers who hand make and sell their own creations, as well as selling other artist work!!

From the moment you see this 'awesome' Mystical Tree' Painted on the Front of the Shop, well...you just know "your in for a treat'. A word of warning, "head down after payday, you simply can't walk out of this place without the urge to purchase your own handmade one of a kind piece" - yes, I'm not just saying that, I mean it, this shop has it all, from clothing, hats, wings, paintings, bags, men's, women and kids clothing, candles & soaps, Jewelry, belts, skirts, workshops, exhibition's ...huff, need I say more!

So, my fellow Kookies! if your located in Melbourne head over to:

374 Hight Street. Northcote. Victoria.

For Interstate and International kookies 'The Pixie Collective' will be 'ONLINE' soon! Yay!

Sending you many hoots!

WOW! I'm Back here Again!

Shop - Pretty things distract me!
I researched for months before I finally decided to take the plunge and have a go at making some 'hair clips' - within weeks I had orders coming in from friends and family and decided to give it a go - I met a friend who buys from me wholesale and it boosted my confidence levels so I decided to start a website:

All of my jewellery pieces are one off designs, although I can create similar pieces by using the same colours. I endeavour to constantly create new and exciting work and seem to be forever buying buttons. I feel that there is something really special about a handmade item, in the world of the consumer a unique and one off piece is treasured and valued, as it is something rare and often hard to come by.

I have been making things (I’ve been told) for much longer than I can even remember. Art is my passion and drawing, painting, printing, bookbinding, sculpture and working with textiles are what bring my life meaning. I grew up in a house with strangely bright colors on the walls and mystifying patterns in the Persian rugs on the floors. I have loved color and pattern ever since and they are themes that continue in my art.

My name is Cath and I have always enjoying being creative. Since having a child I have been even more inspired to create. From my small studio amongst the hills of the Bellinger Valley, Australia I sew - Happy pants- no zippers, no buttons, dresses and softies. I use recycled fabric from my neighbour Ian who is a furniture upholsterer and some vintage fabric I find on Etsy, plus wool felt, scraps of discarded clothes from friends wardrobes. Each softie comes with a unique story about its life.

Hi, thanks for visiting. My name is Angelene (Ange for short) and I am a bead and wire jewellery artist living and working in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. I am absolutely addicted to making jewellery - so much in fact that the only reason I sell my jewellery is to make more jewellery!! Each piece is individually loved, and I hate parting with them, however, the idea that someone else will love my pieces helps me to put them in the shop :-)

Little itty bitty is a busy mum, happily creating pretty little things for gorgeous little people!

My sweet little daughter (Ruby *heart*) is the inspiration behind many of my pieces! As a child I grew up surrounded by beautiful creations that my clever mum had made with love & care! Following in her creative footsteps wasn't something I'd considered until I had a little one of my own...it seems Ruby's arrival encouraged my creative side! (I actually read somewhere that sleep deprivation can do this!!).

Along with my new found creativity, I also seem to have developed a collecting disorder! I LOVE buttons, yummy fabrics, ribbon, paper, sequins, felt, beads....the list goes on!!

I've been making quilts for 10 years since I had my first baby with all the little pieces and perfect points.
I made them for everyone!
After having a couple more kids time became scarce for big quilts. The kids love things that you can make fast and has a fabric that they love. If you put their name on it somehow it really says you made something special and unique just for them.
All the gifts we gave became handmade.
I have sold a lot in Australia. Now I'm putting myself out there to mingle with other lovers of ETSY handmades!

Does it have an expiry date? The little ones tell the tale of their adventures at http://tummymountain.blogspot.com And other times they just write them on the walls. In crayon.

My Very Button

2008-11-25T07:15:00.007+11:00

I often find myself too obssesed with these little buttons which are covered by many different kinds of gorgeous fabrics. I love to make them into unique and practical accessories which will catch people's eyes.
Besides making all these cuties, I enjoy being a mother of 1 little boy aged 1.5 years old. He is my inspiration and also taken lots of my energy daily. He loves to watch me making all these cuties and always wanted to "help". :)
The journey of making buttons has just started but I believe there is a long way to go. I have already filled up my brain with all sorts of ideas of making them work for daily life. Believe me, I still have more to come.

I have many years of experience in the industry from Costume design to Fashion, Theatre, Film and TV to dressmaking. I worked in Europe and Asia where I experienced how the production of materials and clothing is constructed. It's a crazy process of machines!
I love to sew and create wonderful pieces while also love to see my clothing be appreciated by anyone who loves unique vintage style design.
I was taught traditional techniques in fashion production, which I still use in all areas of design, construction and pattern making. This fired my love of vintage fabrics, button and accessories, which I try to incorporate in what I make.

Turtle Dreams

2008-09-10T13:32:00.006+10:00

I came across glass art by accident, looking for something at my local arts centre. One term led to another and another..... By now things are emerging from the kiln which I'm pleased with. (even if they aren't always the things I imagined they might be). I love the way glass works; its unpredictability and its contradictory nature (fluid yet solid, strong yet brittle)
It can be used to create so many things: pendants, pictures, bowls, tiles, sculpture….. I live right beside a piece of Australian bush (tucked into suburbia) which is a wonderful source of inspiration. Dorothy-Jane - The turtle of Turtle Dreams.

Mockingbird Willow

2008-09-05T19:43:00.005+10:00

Mockingbird Willow came about when I started thinking of the relationship between art and psychology.The aim has been to create children's art with psychological depth. One way in which this is done, is by using quotes in my work to encourage children to think in different ways with the help of their parents. Quotes might be motivational, they may act as an introduction to some classic literature that children may read later in life. I hope my work can act as a catalyst for family discussion, to get kids thinking about what the art work means, and how it makes them feel.
I may be able to tailor work to you needs, please send me an email to discuss options with you. Meagan - email: mockingbirdwillow@live.com.
