Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

Yes, we are most definitely big fans of Bethamy Linton and her work. Mitchell & Dent spent a delightful day out at yesterday’s Wedding Upmarket right next door to Bethamy, chitchatting away, sharing cupcakes, gazing at glorious views, oh – and showing our wares to peeps planning weddings. Bethamy is a fourth generation silversmith who has a studio in the Swan Valley and while all of her work is something special, we were blown away by her silver and lace fans (boom tish).

This is Maisie. She is a bicycle (well, duh). More than that, she is a bicycle made from bamboo. Yes. Bamboo. Not just for pandas. She was made by Mik in Melbourne who is exploring renewable, beautiful, functional alternatives to your bike-building norm. You can even see how she is faring 1500km on. Quite the little bamboo beauty, is Maisie. We like her.

The mesdames are constantly drawn to pretty shiny things and you can’t get much prettier and shinier than the wonderful work by Confetti System in Brooklyn. You’ll be delighted to know you can get a little dose of their goodness from Third Drawer Down in Melbourne.

Aaah, Very Purple Person, I get it. These ridiculously adorable cotton dresses that you make have something very important in common. They’re all ideal for the silly season, when a seventeen rumball dessert course is nothing out of the ordinary. You let our ballooning bellies be beautifully disguised. How sweet of you.

For crafty folks who are nifty with a needle, you might get a little thrill out of Ume Craft‘s shop of patterns for felt plush. In the shape of foods. How funny is felt food? That, and William Shatner singing Cee Lo Green’s ‘Fuck You’.

Pip Lincolne from Meet Me at Mike’s is super ace. When Miss Gem and the mesdames rocked up on her doorstep unannounced, instead of telling us to sod off, she invited us in for tea and brownies and a sneaky peak at Project Yellow Box. That kind of kindness deserves to be paid back in kind, so we heartily recommend you visit the Meet Me at Mike’s shop in Brunswick Street, Fitzroy in Melbourne. Or Pip’s blog if you haven’t stumbled across it already (and if you haven’t, where have you been hiding yourself?!). We also love her first book of crafty projects (pictured above) and are excited to hear that her second book Sew La Tea Do is not far away.
