The Finders Keepers: Brisbane {spring/summer 2013}

Gift wrap by bespoke letterpress. Tassel Necklace by Crayon Chick. Vegetable Stickers by the Surfing Sloth.

On the weekend I ventured to The Finders Keepers market in Brisbane, held at the historic Old Museum in Herston. This market has always been a favourite of mine so it was lovely to be able to experience its sights and sounds once again, whilst ticking a few items off of my Christmas shopping list.
 

{christmas gifts I bought}

• The most beautiful double sided gift wrap I have ever seen from bespoke letterpress. 
• A lovely blue tassel chain necklace from Crayon Chick. Blake has it easy this Christmas as I bought this for him to give to me, bad I know!
• A pair of jade green Geometric Hexagon Earrings from core jewellery. The cushions at this stall were quite amazing also.
• Some sweet bird stickers from Skeleton Leaf florist. A stall full of lovely fresh flowers wrapped in brown paper packaging is my idea of perfection!
• An art print from Studio Cockatoo - it was love at first sight when I saw this stall. You should really check out their online store. This cockatoo art print is a favourite.
• Quirky vegetable stickers from Surfing Sloth.

{things I loved}

• The riot of colour in the form of mexican embroidered dresses at little tienda.
• The crafty supplies at The Spring Shop. Hello fluoro pink ink!
• The ladies bow ties at marcello neckwear. I know someone who would love one of these, it's on my list for their birthday next year.
• The vintage inspired fashions at alice nightingale.
• The beautiful homewares at maker & merchant.
• Everything at the Emily Green stall. How could you not love these Hobe's or this amazing watercolour cloud print.
• The beautifully crafted clothing at Kindling. Read all about their lovely clothing here.

This market never fails to inspire me, seeing all of these creative people chasing their dreams is second to none.

Did you get a chance to visit The Finders Keepers market on the weekend? If so, what did you buy or love?

Happy days to you!
