©Kara Rosenlund Yesterday was a public holiday here in Brisbane and to be honest it is taking me a little while to get back up to speed (hence my late post!). Anyway, I spent the day with Timothy O at a near by beach (aka mudflat, it is Brisbane after all) collecting sea shells while […]

©Kara Rosenlund Thank you to all of you who came by ‘Travelling Wares’ at the Jan Power’s Farmers Market on the weekend! It was such a great day seeing you all out and about in the sunshine! Here are a couple of recent children’s finds! A pair of French nursery slippers in elephant grey and […]

Hope to see you tomorrow! I have spent the day preparing and pricing stock and I must say that I really think I have out done myself this time – I can measure this by how much I actually want to keep and NOT sell! Hahaha! Just finished packing the ute, plus the inside of […]

©Kara Rosenlund Hold on to your seats! Look at what I have found! Its called Food Connect and it is great! A seasonal fruit and vegetable co-op based in Salisbury (there is also one in Sydney for you Sydney siders), where South East Queensland farmers bring in their stunning produce and it gets distributed into […]

©Kara Rosenlund Here is another sneak peek of the gorgeous bits that have arrived for this weeks market! Just arrived, a large French ‘eau de vie’ bottle. I have a couple of these around the house. They are hard to come buy and are very heavy. I love thick old glass that catches sunlight, very […]

©Kara Rosenlund You know when you see something and you just have to have it; you have an immediate strong reaction, where all the pulses in your body are pulsing to the same beat – thats what happened when I saw this bag at our last Travelling Wares Market, casually strolling by our caravan on […]

©Kara Rosenlund Well here you have it, the gorgeous Blue and White sneak peek. We have pieces from all over the globe including Denmark, Italy and England. Vibrant and fresh, blue and white is so completely timeless. **Note Timothy O’s heirloom tomatoes in the second shot, we are having our own little tomato feast at […]

That’s right folks, we are going to be at the Powerhouse Markets this Saturday, bright and early! I have had a lot of beautiful things arriving through the doors here since the last market. As I mentioned last week lots of blue and white, lots of all white (of course), a few smaller pieces of […]

©Kara Rosenlund Just a quick post to say hope you all have a fantastic weekend! I have a busy one planned, with an exciting themed event I’m styling on Saturday. I’ll have to share that with you next week! I found this skull yesterday – what do you think? I love animal bones, skulls, antlers, […]

©Kara Rosenlund Ta Dah…….. Happy Birthday Timothy O!!! Even at 30 years of age you are still getting bikes for your birthday… well, not any sort of bike…. a Tokyo Bike! As you can see I have taken a couple of sneaky shots of the ***new bike***, which I cleverly hid in Frankie – Timothy […]

©Kara Rosenlund I was out and about sourcing yesterday for a shoot when to my pure joy I came across these… Original 1968 Swags from the Vietnam War – never used! I was squealing about all over the place when I saw them; I bought a few as I think they have many different uses. […]

©All Images Kara Rosenlund Here you have it… finally the kitchen is finished…. a few of you have asked me while doing Travelling Wares at the market whether I use and decorate with similar objects to what I sell. As you can see the answer is a firm yes! I love combining the old with […]
