Melbourne Museum Market & free shipping

I do not do many markets these days, but am super excited to announce that Spin Spin will be making one festive season appearance - at Melbourne Museum on Sunday 17 December for the fab MakeIt Collective's Christmas Market. 

AND WHAT'S THIS I SAY ABOUT FREE SHIPPING?

As a bonus for local peeps, I've got a special market + free shipping deal. If you want to buy something online now and can get to the market on 17/12 to pick the goodies up, use the code MARKETPICKUP and you'll get free shipping. This is a super good deal for anyone wanting to buy ceramics and other bulky items and save on shipping. Note that the offer is open until Friday 15/12 and obviously you need to be able to get to the market on Sunday 17/12*! The market is on from 10:00-4:30 in Nicholson Street Carlton. More details here and the Facebook event details are here.

You're welcome :)

* If you buy something using the code and then don't pick up the items at the market on 17/12, I'll invoice you for shipping and send the parcel via Australia Post once payment's cleared. 

Dots and flowers

The making of new continues! So some more new things have been posted in the shop, including Dots Mugs (to go with the dotty milk jugs) and a new print called Slow Down, which is A4/8x10" and is printed on textured canvas paper. Happy Friday to you.

Summer in November

I'm doing a bunch of screenprinting today, to ward off Monday-itis and get some orders sorted out. The ink colours I'm using are very pastel and I just realised it's kind of summer here in Melbourne, though it feels like we got no spring. Oh well, at least that means endless salads, like the beetroot and cabbage slaw I had for lunch (and yes, I get to keep the reject plates - this one's got a hairline crack in it, what a shame!)

I'm thinking of using the paper I rest my squeegee on between prints (bottom photo) to wrap some orders - I usually throw that paper out but today the mess of ink and patterns looked pretty cool. Watch this space.

Shop update update

I'm posting shop updates each day this week. Mainly because there are so many new things and dealing with them all at once would do my head in! Here's a sample of what's gone up so far - lots of ceramics...

Happy Thursday.

Good one Australia! #ssm #marriageequality #yes

New things

Just a quick post to share some new things I've been working on! The brand new tea towel, Fishes, is my first proper two-colour screen printed design and I'm so happy with it (and not just because I'm a Piscean). It's based on drawings I did earlier this year and certainly has a Scandi vibe and printed on 100% pure white European line. A limited number are now available in my shop and the Etsy shop.

Also new is an art print called Fish, which features more hand drawn...fish! It's printed onto the most lovely textured paper and fits A4/8x10" frames. It's in both this shop and Etsy too.

There will be shop updates each day this week, so keep an eye out for more new things. These one-off plates will be online tomorrow!

Oh, and in non-Spin Spin news, I've started *another* Instagram account, this time in my own name. So if you want to see what else I take photos of (mainly houses that are falling apart, sausage dogs, old buildings, old signage and plants) go forth and follow.
