A few months ago The DAN300 Group moved into some pretty amazing new offices, and for me it was a nice change. We are in a group office with a few other companies and it does make for a lot of fun most of the time. ♥

David Hardwick of Harwick & Cesko sits down my end of the office and we often find ourselves in political, creative and a good portion of the time hilarious conversations. Alot of the time we discuss what we do for a living and every day I get to look at beautiful framed artworks…. Stunning detailed paper cut framed artworks. With a gorgeous collection of around 8 designs visit www.hardwickandcesko.com.au for the full stockist list or to purchase oneline. ♥
