I’ve been very remiss about posting some costumes I’ve made for this seasons comp. Here are some. More to come.

Senior Jazz (quad)- Brittney Spears costumes. This routine is a mashup of a few Brittney songs, so the girls are all different versions! Fun.

Senior Jazz (trio) - Zoot Suit
This is routine is one that has been in the rotation for a while, but we have it new life with new costumes. Last years costumes were a little clunky, but these look way better. The pants are store bought, but I made the headbands out of the legs that needed shortening. White holo tops absolutely sparkle!

Senior Song and Dance - Revolting Children
Found some fabulous flannel tartan for cheap and ran up skirts and pinafores for these kids. Popped on some white shirts, a couple of green vests and my old school blazer (school no more 😢) and they totally look like school kids.

My son (far left) and his uni cohorts performed today in their class rendition of “Metamorphoses”. It was about the gods of Olympus. They have improved so much since I saw the last performance.

I made their cast tshirts!

Hi all. Now things have settled down with the fires and the kids are back at school, I am ready to launch into work!

I have a few jobs lined up already, so get in contact if you need any promotional items done for your club, business or personal.

Apologies if anyone has been trying to get in touch with me over the past couple of weeks. For those unsure of my location, I am just out of Colac and just north of the Otway Fires. Whilst being a dairy farmer, I am also in the CFA and have been out on fire line a little. Our home farm is safe enough, but pur farm on Gellibrand is potentially in the line of fire depending on wind direction. We evacuated all our stock from there 2 days ago.

My hubby is the area Group Officer and has been out on fire or ICC most days (and also the floods the other week at Wye River), so I am back filling a few of his jobs on farm.

To say we’ve been busy is an understatement. Plus this heat 🥵

Anyway, apologies if I havent returned any messages. Please feel free to send me an email at [email protected] to make sure your query doesn’t get lost in messenger.

Final stages of my clearance sale. All stainless steel blanks are at RIDICULOUSLY low prices.

Items are comparable with big label drinkware such as Yeti or Rambler. But for a fraction of price!!!

Use as is, or buy to decorate.

Once gone, they will not be back. Website in picture.

So I spent the past week in Rutherglen learning and refining a couple of new techniques for making tutus. This one isn’t quite finished, but will be on stage at a few solo comps this year!!

Finished version to come.

Thanks to Melissa Jacka for her invaluable advice and guidance.

Happy New Year to all my customers, supporters and friends. I thank you all for any orders you have placed and the business you give to me. I truly appreciate it.

2026 will see me continue on with personalising various items but there will also be some changes. I will announce these as things come online and other services disappear.

As I have been promoting lately, I will be ceasing the supply of stainless steel blanks, so these are on sale for 40-50% off RRP. These are same standard as yeti, rambler etc tumblers. They are just “naked”. Get in while stocks last (there are drink bottles suitable for school available).

Wishing all my customers and supporters a very merry Christmas.

Thankyou to everyone that purchased from me - big or small - this year. It was an extremely difficult and stressful year for us here on the farm due to 2 years of drought, so your purchases really did make all the difference!

My wish for you all is to have a fun festive season with family and friends, recharging batteries for 2026.

For those still purchasing stainless steel blanks, my clearance sale continues until stocks run out. So continue to grab a bargain.

Hi all.

As some of you will be aware, I am selling off all my stainless steel blanks as my business os moving in a different direction. I am offering all remaining stainless steel drink ware at hugely reduced prices. Between 40 and 50% off RRP. Some styles have sold out, but I do have a few styles that have plenty available.

These would make excellent stocking stuffers. These items are comparable with famous brands (eg Yeti, Freskco etc) as they are insulated and doubled walled, but at this moment, cost a FRACTION of the price.

All items are being advertised as blank stainless steel and are available for immediate delivery or postage. If, however, you would like yours decorated (resin with ink and/or glitter, and personalised) please contact me directly. Delivery for these, however, will be post Christmas.

(Pictures are sample of what I have...more styles on my website)
