Pretty cool Yeah??

Inspiration

2011-07-20T17:39:00.000-07:00

I would like to share some of the stuff that inspires me !

I am obsessed with retro wall paper . Whenever I see a fabric that is similar to retro wallpaper I have to grab it . I am particularly inspired by the movie "A clockwork orange" and the wallpaper that can be found all over the main character's house here a a few examples .............

The living room ! Wow so funky . Pink on one side , blue swirls on the other and a glimse of the kitchen ( Bright checkered squares !)

A close up of the blue swirly paper

The most unusual kitchen I have ever seen !
Oh! This is the best 3d wallpaper wow !

This isn't from the movie but I absolutley love this ! ( The furniture aswell!)

I also Love op art and optical illusions . Mostly black and white but there are also quite a few coloured ones that are cool!

Cute alien puppets !

2011-06-26T22:52:00.000-07:00

Have a look at Fugu Fashion's alien puppets which are available from the online shop or from the olive tree market in newcastle this weekend .I have been busy making lots of new ones so there will be heaps of them at the market . Each one is handmade and handpainted and every one has a different face .

( The ones below are available from the online shop )

This is Squeeb - He has three big eyes so his vision is remarkable . He also has beautiful pink lips

This is spoto - He is grey with blue spots

This is herbert - He is grey with one eye

This is OMG - He is facinated by the world around him .

Fugu Fashion at the markets

2010-12-18T16:20:00.001-08:00

To be honest Yesterday's market was definitely one of the windest markets I have ever been to . I'm not a weather expert but i'm thinking there were up to 50km/h winds .

My day was pretty good though despite the extreme weather and a few minor hic ups .

Random fugu fact #1

2010-12-13T16:23:00.001-08:00

I have an unusual obsession with fugu fish ! I just loooooovveeeeeeee them !
They are so cute when they puff up and bob around in the water :):)
I have decided to share my love for these incredible creatures and let you konw a few random facts about them . Stay tuned to find out some truly facinating facts :)

Random Fugu Fact #1

Fugu can be lethally poisonous when eaten due to its tetrodotoxin, therefore has to be carefully prepared to remove toxic parts and to avoid contaminating the meat .
But honestly who would want to eat such a cute little thing like this ?

Busy !
