Rosie, who runs the brand ‘rosieok’ crochets these little toys. They are bright, fun, and individual! The toys are large (around 20 cm in height for the standing toys), and even the smaller ones sit around 10 cm in height.

The best thing about these toys, and the brand, is the fact Rosie, a Newcastle girl, offers patterns of her toys in her shop. Too much fun, we get to make (or try to make) her awesome crocheted toys!

The Pendant Factory is a husband and wife team who make pendants. The pendants are scrabble tiles, which have been re-covered with a graphic. Each pendant measures around 18mm x 20m and come in a ton of fun, funky patterns, as well as worded pendants and picture ones.

Just as a reminder to the fact it’s homemade, the original scrabble tile is visible from the back. The pendants look amazing, and show that homemade original ideas, are ten times better than mass produced necklaces.

Carol, who is a Melbourne based crafter, makes these adorable pouches. They are mini box shaped pouches, the newer ones have an attached keyring as an improvement, and there are so many different fabric choices. The quality standard is very high, and the look of the style is very professional. Pink Pig, the brand label, also has numerous other bag styles, which are as high quality and professional looking. Check out Carol’s Flickr, which has a collection dedicated to her homemade brand label, Pink Pig.

AMAZING PLUSHIES! mylittleoogabooga! creates these little toys herself from Sydney. These lil ones, which are part of her Classic OogaBooga range, are around 20cm in height and similar length in width, and just to show how homemade they are, have felt hearts on their bottom. Not only are these plushies for kids at heart, there are also some made especially lil hands, meaning no buttons. Surprising to see plushies homemade for kid toys! These range is truly amazing.

I sketch out the scene as it occurs then paint with gouache, watercolours, pencils and inks until I feel that I have done “the little ones” justice….. I hold up the beautiful thick 310gsm paper to the light and stroke the watercolour textured paper with my rough thumb. The paper is of the highest quality, acid free archival paper….
