A lovely week with the family in Cairns, Far North Queensland. Explored the city, floated down crystal clear rivers, snorkelled, visited markets, ate well and relaxed by the pool.

I haven’t been to Cairns since I was 19 and spent some happy time there in a low key hippy hostel.

It’s much more tourism focussed now, but still rough enough around the edges to not feel like a total tourist trap.

Great place to base a multigenerational group to explore the gorgeous surrounds. Weather was perfect, not too humid, not too hot🌴❤️

Change of plan. My textile project was getting lost as curtains, so I chopped them up and turned them into a wall hanging.

Kind of cute up here behind my Van Treight up-down table and FLER armchair.

‘The time I borrowed my friend’s shorts, went to Uluru, and met a seagull’.

Textile art as curtains? Why not, I say.

I call this one ‘The time I borrowed my friend’s shorts, went to Uluru, and met a seagull’.

I’ve been thinking a lot about memory of late, and photography. About how the moments people capture of you are rarely the ones that stay with you years later. I really did meet a seagull at Uluru, and I did borrow my friend’s shorts, and it’s these seemingly insignificant events that I find myself returning to and treasuring so much.

It’s all made of fabric scraps sewn onto a background of Muslin that I dyed a while ago in Annie Sloan Coco.

Thoughts??

I spent the day making some perfectly imperfect cakes for afternoon tea. What would we call them? Ugly cakes? Punk cakes? Wabi-sabi cakes? Whatever they are they taste divine and I had some fun :)

A very simple, rustic cast iron kettle from the mid Showa Period (1926–1989).

Although perhaps not as classically beautiful as the others I’ve photographed, I actually like this one the best. I just love the wabi sabi highly tactile, cratered surface that mimics natural weathered stone.

Relief-carved Japanese copper kettle most likely dating from the early Taisho Period (1912-1926) in front of my Scandinavian Pink painted backdrop.

You can just make out some of the gleaming copper peaking out of the blackened surface. ❤️
