GOOD MORNING! Today it's time for another fantabulous design files giveaway! These beauties are the creation of one very clever Madeleine Stamer of Little Circus Design!
Madeleine is a talented Melbourne artist, illustrator and super busy working Mum of gorgeous kids Minnie and Ada! (Madeleine and family also live in a beautiful apartment which you have all admired over here!). Madeleine's illustrations are incredible. Her style is just so different from anything else out there in commercial illustration land, referencing a huge variety of influences including Mexicana, traditional folk art, street art and graffiti.
Madeleine has turned some her beautiful birdie illustrations into stunning hanging mobiles... and you can now also buy individual hanging birdies too (especially for grown-ups!). I love the shadows they cast... so pretty, and guaranteed to make you smile! The single 'Big Bird' mobiles come in 9 bright colours - Red, orange, yellow, purple, lilac, blue, lime, black and white! Each bird measures 26 x 35cm, and is valued at $85.00.
Madeleine has offered one of her beautiful single Big Bird mobiles as a giveaway for one lucky Design Files reader - and, excitingly, the winner gets to choose their fave colour! (for a good look at all the colours, pop over to Maddi's online store!).
To enter the giveaway - you know the drill! Please leave a comment here before midnight tonight Melbourne time, ensuring you include your favourite birdie colour, and your email in the email field so I can contact the lucky winner! A winner will be selected at random and contacted by email tomorrow. If you subscribe to these posts by email, please don't reply to your email, instead pop over to thedesignfiles.net to leave your comment!
*Update - WOW huge response to this one, thanks guys! The giveaway is now closed - the winner has now been drawn and contacted by email. The winning comment was #155, congratulations Jane!
