Five things


Vintage clothing: skirts, dresses, pants, blouses and jackets. I love it all. Particularly the 1950's. There is a real trend at the moment for vintage clothing. My first ever purchase of a vintage clothing item was when I was 14 = from the 'flea market' underground on Swanston street in Melbourne. Since then I have loved nothing more than finding treasures in op shops and vintage stores.


Elk Accessories - One of my favourite jewellery lines. I have several pieces of their range. We have visited the Preston store many times and love the boutique feel of the place.


Coffee - skinny latte to be exact. At least one a day when I am at work. It has to be good coffee at exactly the right temperature. If it's not coffee then it has to be really nice strong tea.


Bright, funky fabrics, all are amazing and fun to work with when you are making toys and dolls for little ones. I would love to go on a fabric buying trip one day. I also love beautiful upholstery fabrics.


Funky hair - if you have hair then why not be creative with it, I say. When I get the chance I try to style my hair in my favourite pin curl fringe and victory rolls. It was a lot easier when my hair was long, but now I pop a bandana on and curl my fringe up to create a bit of a funky 50's style hair style.
