Things to look At Category
As we move into the new year and right into a new decade Ive found myself wandering the streets looking for flowers to pick, yes I said it flowers to pick from my own back garden. I took a trip to Norton St Grocer picked up some fresh artichokes and wafted over to the flower shop next door to buy some fresh leaves and funny little berries, mixed it all together and took out those dusty glass vases Ive been collecting for years and made my very own flower arrangement.
Going into 2011 The Style Tree will giving you lots of tips on up and coming style predictions, do it yourself extravaganza’s you can pull off in your own home, and my favourite thing.. all things food.
2011 will be all about recipes and ways you can decorate your home, office, desk and more.
Stay tuned as we move to our new office… yes I said it again – but this time to our very own Style Tree Studio. We are not moving far, just down three floors in the same building to a bigger space.
More news coming in 2011…
Have a great Holiday Break and we will see you in the new year – bigger and better than ever!!!
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. ♥
