Elkhorn scarfing

The one thing I love about creating & completing a Elkhorn design is having a mini photo-shoot afterwards. I don't know if the images are great and as always I'm lacking a model but I really enjoy taking them so I hope it shows...

I went out a couple of times last week both days being complete opposites. The first day was over cast with heavy clouds threatening, the water was a deep green and the rain came as warned bringing the shoot to an early finish. The next day was the complete opposite with the sun beaming down and endless inspiration distracting me. Here's a few Elkhorn scarves photographed, newies & oldies. Hope you like them. It's definitely feeling like scarf weather now!

We have a new season of Autumn Ruffle Scarves. Lots of earthy autumn colours and fun brights!
For once we have added these to our online store. If you can't find the right colour combo for you we are happy to create something in your colours. Just email us!

We recently sourced some beautiful organic cotton. It was so lovely to print on. Beautiful plum purple off-cuts worked so well added to our Ruffle Scarves. The Circle scarves below are a new addition. They are super easy to wear going straight over your head in one single loop... no fussing about. Double lined making them perfect for this time of year when it's just starting to get a little cooler. A touch of nautical roping features in sweet knots. Currently we have 4 colours, purple, Hawkesbury green, clay & poppy red all organic cotton!

Our Dahlia Wraps are still much loved. I don't think anyone can resist the super soft modal fabric.
Just to make the decision even harder we couldn't resist adding this amazing bright red wrap to our range. You wouldn't be missed wearing this!

As you can see I couldn't resist adding the extra elements that came across my path when photographing! Some of them are hard to avoid. It is truly inspiring down at the wharf! Can't wait to finish our new designs. I have a slightly different plan for the next shoot! xx

Elkhorn Collector Tanks

As Promised...
Phew! Finally Our 'Collector Tank Tops' photographed and up on our Etsy Online Store for your viewing/wearing pleasure! Just in time for Summer ;)
If you had a chance to come to our end of year(2011) markets you may of already stumbled across these... but for those who haven't here they are

 Floral Collector Tank - Natural with Pippie wrap scarf - taupe

 Pippie Collector Tank - Grey with Dahlia Wrap - Bright Red

Floral Collector Tank - Tangerine with Ruffle Scarf

 

 Floral Collector Tank - Sea Blue with Pippie Wrap - Gull Grey

Pippie Tank - Clay with Dahlia Kerchief - Tango

Aptly named the 'Collector Tank' from my love of gathering and beach combing every feather, shell and flower that was unlucky enough to cross my path. Thankfully I have managed to curb this habit and now follow the mantra 'take only pictures, leave only foot prints'!  Anyways.. I'm proud to say these tops are 100% Australia Made. The fabric was made and dyed in Sydney, sewn by a wonderfully skilled lady on the Central Coast and finished with a original Elkhorn design screen prints  in our studio! They were also made in a limited run making them truly unique and individual.
Well that's what I think anyway! Hope you like them x

Christmas Drinks

I finally got the chance to visit Sydney and start the first of my Christmas drinks. It was a bittersweet, farewell/catch up with my good friend Kirsty!  We had a long cruisy lunch at Manly Wine. It was hard to leave, such a gorgeously decorated bar with views of the ocean and Kirsty ;) I had to refrain myself from photographing all the interiors, so I just kept the photo's to my model friend, rocking a Elkhorn Scarf and our yummy Giggly Rose cocktails!
Kirky hope you have good travels home and a fantastic Italian Christmas! xx Miss you!
Only 4 days left of making and creating for Elkhorn, then back to Sydney for some more festive fun!
