Just in case you've forgotten, here's where I'll be tomorrow night (Friday)...

Come along and say hi, have some yummy food, listen to some music and of course, get your Christmas shopping started...

Trick or Treat....

Now that my girls are older I can't really get away with not doing Trick or Treat with them because they know what goes on... Anyway, luckily the kids over the back put a note in every one's letterboxes around the neighbourhood to leave your outdoor light on if you want kids to knock so that makes it much easier.

Here's my witch, devil fairy and dragon ready to go.... scary aren't they???


and the good thing was, we already had all three costumes in the dress-up box.

Happy Halloween everyone...

Coming up to a VERY busy week....

Starting Sunday I have three markets in one week.... eeeek !! Not sure what I was thinking but I've been crazy busy trying to have enough stock of everything. No doubt I'll still be going nuts sewing, glueing and crafting next week but hopefully it won't be too bad.

So here's the rundown and I hope to see some of you at one of the markets...

Sunday 1st November - Mathilda's Market
Brisbane City Hall, King George Square (between Adelaide & Ann Streets), Brisbane City
9am to 1pm


Friday 6th November - C & K Salisbury Kindergarten Market Night
135 Lillian Avenue, Salisbury
7pm to 9pm


Sunday 8th November - Boutique Markets
Portside Wharf, Hercules Street, Hamilton
8am to 1pm



P.S. I've also got two markets in December but I'll fill you in on those details a little closer to the time and then I'm doing nooooo markets in January !!!

Fabulous Photographer spots Little Diva Designs....

I received a lovely email last week from Rachel Richter telling me that she'd been browsing the Mathilda's Markets website and clicked through to my site. She said one of the dresses looked very familiar and when she looked back at a photo shoot she'd done she was sure it was a Little Diva Designs dress:

It sure is and doesn't little Chloe look just divine! What a beautiful little girl and what gorgeous photography.

I looked further at Rachel's blog and her photos are so beautiful. Rachel is a photographer based on Brisbane's southside and has been photographing families and children for six years.

Click here to see more photos of Chloe and also here for the website of Rachel Richter Photography.

Thank you Rachel and Chloe's mum for letting me post this photo on my blog and thanks to Rachel for emailing me...

P.S. The citrus fabric is running out and has been discontinued so click here if you want to buy one of your own...

This is one market you don't want to miss...

Mathilda's Market is coming to Brisbane again and Little Diva Designs will be there this time.

These markets are becoming very popular and well known for gorgeous, unique and mostly handcrafted goods for kids. It's on Sunday 1st November from 9am to 1pm and from what I've heard, you should get in early!!


What a fabulous way to stock up on Christmas Goodies for the kids, nieces, nephews, grandkids etc...


You'll find Mathilda's Market at Brisbane City Hall, between Adelaide and Ann Streets, King George Square, Brisbane City and entry is free. Click here to see which amazing stallholders will be there.
