Ready To Roll.

After a lot of tossing and turning, setting up the stall in my mind whilst laying comfortably in my warm bed last night - I managed to get to sleep before 1am. Milestone!
Niche: All Wrapped Up starts today (in case you've been living under a rock!) and it is going to be fantastic.
Super duper.
Amazing.
Incredible.
And bursting at the seams with awesome talent!

See you there!

Time For Tea.

There isn't actually any time for a cuppa at the moment.
It is all systems a-go-go!

Niche: All Wrapped Up starts tomorrow - and boy oh boy, that has come around so quick.
I spent last night with Natalie at Lauren's place - Leaves & Stems - helping her out with some little jobs ready for her stall at the market too.
I have just finished some errands this morning, scoffed down some much needed sushi and wasabi mayo (my vice!) and am about to go help out Lauren again - I'm actually that organised this time around, that I can share my time with someone else - incredible!
I finished making the little Tea Party Cup Rings yesterday afternoon, they are oh so cute as well - I'm going to struggle to part with them all!

Dinner Is Served.

I have just finished making the Tea Party Rings for Niche: All Wrapped Up, these are pretty cute - I am quite tempted to keep one of each but... I shouldn't!
Can't believe that the market is this Friday - where has that time gone!
Hellooooooo market-goers!

Packaged Goodies.

Just thought I would share this photo of an order that I have just finished wrapping and packaging up.
I've got it all down to a fine art now, speedy too!

Picked By The People - Part Sixteen..

Another three truly beautiful Etsy Treasury lists featuring a piece of That Vintage.
The majority of Etsy users are based in the northern hemisphere, so the current trend and theme with treasuries is spring and new life; it is a nice reminder of the beauty that each season can create... as I write this, I am sipping a cup of piping hot tea with my cosy jumper on - Autumn is in full swing here in Tasmania!

I am truly tickled pink to be apart of the Lighter Shade of Pale treasury by lesalikes - it made me say out loud: "wow." - beautiful curating skills; I adore the carved dove!

Earth Hour Two Thousand and Eleven.

I couldn't wait.
I love it when this time of year rolls around.
Earth Hour.
It (officially) begins at 8:30pm tonight in Australia - but I started well before 7:30pm!
A tribute to all those little creatures with feathers and fur that inspire the That Vintage designs.
Do something good for the planet and switch all your lights off and even all of your televisions and your computer and everything else - pop your laptop on its own charge, crank your iPod/iPhone with its own speakers, for a full hour from 8:30pm... enjoy some quiet, calming candle light ...oh so heavenly!
Happy Earth Hour!

Caught in the Warpaint Undertow.

Music getting me through the busy time leading up to Niche: All Wrapped Up is none other than the gorgeous girls from WarPaint.
Favourite tracks on repeat are "Undertow" "Billie Holiday" and their beautiful cover of David Bowie's "Ashes to Ashes."
I can't seem to function in the "factory" without some tunes and WarPaint certainly gives me that productive kick in the ear drum.
