Nature Rebranded Designs

I thought it was about time I showed you this term's work. You can see more of my uni work here.

My shoe designs this term have been based around the idea of rebranding nature - taking a natural object and making it man made. This term has been really exciting. We got to make our first ever shoe!

As you can see my final shoe was heavily inspired by rock formations. The idea was to create a man made rock formation as the platform, but to cover it in one solid colour to contrast with the natural texture of the platform.

Here's the mood board and designs for my final shoe, I'll be posting pictures of the shoe next week.

I am so excited to bring you this giveaway today! I've been a fan of Wita Puspita's work for a while now, you may remember me featuring her Maneki Neko greetings card on my Lucky Cat Etsy Love post a while ago.

I'm not gonna lie, I've been thinking of excuses to buy this amazing Cat Burger card ever since I saw it. All of her products are lovingly designed from her own home in Canberra, Australia, and they are printed from a local printing shop in Australia. 



This giveaway is for $30 worth of custom portrait, and Wita will even send you a printed version of your portrait in the post.

Etsy Love - Frozen

I've been itching to blog about frozen for a while now, and what better way to do it than make an Etsy treasury?
I am officially OBSESSED with this film, not only is it full of awesome messages, but it's also really funny and has a great soundtrack. I don't think we've gone a day without singing "Let it Go" or "Do ya wanna build a snowmaaaan?" in this house since watching the film. I'll also happily admit to watching it three times within one week.
