BrisStyle Weekly Round Up


Word is spreading quickly about the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market including a special feature on MixTape blog this week. Thanks for your support Justine and for all the Brisbanites out there be sure to mark 4 July in your diary and we'll see you at St Augustine's Church Hall, Racecourse Road, Hamilton for a huge day of shopping!

BrisStyle was the featured etsy team this week on The Australian Etsy Blog. Pop over to read a fabulous interview with Chris and featured wares from Little Chrissy, Beckybean, edward and lilly, PretaPawte, Hey Harriet and Hot Fudge.


Liesa from The Handmade Expo has taken the retail plunge and is opening Handmade Heaven, a shop selling handmade items in Ipswich. Handmade Heaven can be found at Shop #11, The Old Flour Mill, 231 Brisbane Street, Ipswich.

Handmade Heaven will be stocking the wares of BrisStylettes Christine from whynotstreet and Miriam from Bubbachenille.


Pedrosprout's Ruby Red Dottie Baby Booties were featured in Etsy's Eco friendly gift guide this week. Not only are Pedrosprout booties super cute but they're also made from Kunin Eco-fi felt, a high quality polyester fibre made from 100% certified recycled plastic bottles. You've gotta love retail therapy that's good for the environment!


Edward and Lilly was featured in Sarah's Favourites this week on the new Sewn website.

Hi, I love Handmade Heaven - I'd love to do that someday! And to get involved.

Bec, wanted to let you know that two pairs of my earrings are being given away on this blog (http://stephchows.blogspot.com/2009/06/epheriell-giveaway.html) if you want to include that next week.
