Handmade Nation

For as much time as I waste on social networking sites like facebook.com there is always those moments when they pay off. One of those times happened to be this week when I got a message from a lovely lady by the name of Pip. Pip not only owns a crafty boutique here in Melbourne called Meet Me at Mike's but is also the author of a book soon to be released by the same name!



I visited Pip and her guy Cam yesterday after my radio interview at 3RRR, it was a holiday here in Melbourne so the shop was closed.



in the studio!


Pip, Cam and I spent some time drinking tea and catching up about the city, the Australian craft scene and good spots to check out. Their space was so amazing and I could of kicked myself for only having my iphone to capture the afternoon. Their home/shop is worth some real documenting for sure!









I couldn't be more pleased with my new friends who I am meeting for dinner tonight and also getting up at the crack of dawn with on Sunday to go to a flea market. Dinner and flea markets are really in my top 5 favorite things ever. Yay facebook! Yay Australia!
