These gorgeous pics from Craft Victoria's shop 'Counter' popped into my inbox a week or two ago... of course I flagged them immediately, but then every second email in my inbox seems to have a red flag on it at the moment (true!) - so after a very hectic week in day-job land this quietly slipped off my radar and I very nearly forgot all about it! LUCKILY the ever-efficient Jenny Butler reminded me... sheesh WHAT would I do without her! Everyone needs a Jenny Butler in their lives. ( But you can't have mine. :)
ANYWAY. It is no secret that Jenny B and I are major Craft Victoria groupies.. they are such a super clever bunch and deliver much blog-able gorgeousness to my inbox each week! These lovely pics are from their recently released colour-themed Christmas catalogue - fabulous styling! If you pop over to see this e-catalogue on the Craft Vic website... amazingly you can CLICK each individual item in the photo to buy / learn more about each item! How hi-tech is THAT!? Jeepers creepers. We need that click technology over here at The Design Files!
You can buy all the lovely items photographed through the Craft Vic Counter Online Shop, or visit them in real life at 31 Flinders Lane [downstairs], in Melbourne, Monday to Saturday 10.00am - 5.00pm. Starting from next Friday December 3rd, Craft Vic also will start extended trading hours on Thursday and Friday evenings until 6pm, giving you an extra hour after work to pop in and visit! So many reasons to buy handmade this Christmas!
Thanks Craft Vic for the endless inspiration and thankyou Jenny B for keeping my brain in check :)
