secret life of indigo inspirations....my week

Life in the Indigo World is a little busy at the moment....well I guess it always is but at the moment it just seems a little crazier than usual. With the colder weather in this part of the world comes the higher demand for my hand painted wool...I am supplying craft groups and a few shops as well as my own two shops....so fitting in the painting process (and setting, rinsing and drying) is taking over my life just a little. 

I love the outcome and I love receiving the photos of products made and I love the 'oohs and ahhs' when people see it for the first time.

Here are some of my photos from my week....

hand painted rainbow 16ply

my new shop display getting a makeover

My yummy new bike (you will really get sick of seeing it) and my new Indigo sign

the view from my computer chair in my office

I am loving sky and cloud pics and loved the shoes over the wire installation

my new seedlings that have since been transplanted into their real home in the vege garden

more balls of wool before being sent off to a new home

and yet more....

Would really love to hear from you...how was your week? Crafty or domestic?

instagram love.....

I was reading a post by Sarah over at A Beach Cottage Blog the other day and she had recently spent the day switched off...unplugged...no social media for the day. No computer, so no blogging, no Facebook and no Twitter. She was wondering how she would go....if she would go through hideous withdrawals from the medium that she loves.

And guess what she missed the most??? Yep INSTAGRAM.!!! 

I totally get that!!!

 I love that little app that comes everywhere with me. I love the groovy filters and I love the old fashioned square photos. 

I love that it is creative, fun and easy to use!!!

You can find me at 'indigoinspirations' on Instagram if you haven't already.

Would love to see you over there....

Are you an Instagram addict too?

have you missed me???

I have been absent from Blogland for a couple of weeks....it is not like me. Since I started my blog back in July last year I made a commitment to myself and my readers to post 2 or 3 times a week. Sometimes this has been easy and sometimes I have had to push myself, but I have achieved it none the less.

My sister came down suddenly very ill, so I headed down south to Newcastle. I was very lucky that my good friend Sheri lives there and I was welcome to stay as long as I needed.

My sister is now (almost) miraculously better and I can settle back into my busyness and business.

Of course I did some sightseeing and found some great places with my iPhone and Instagram in hand.

make space is a wonderful little co-op type shop just like out art depot 55 here in Mullum.

always love some street art...

and I love this photo from my cousins back verandah...looking down to the ocean.

It is good to be back.....would love to hear from you.
