Today we were in the paper! The Bendigo Advertiser ran a lovely full page article all about our contributions to Handmade Christmas. This is the second time we’ve popped up in the Addy (here is the first), but it’s still strange seeing our faces and words in a real life newspaper. We feel so lucky to have so much support from our local community.
We hope you are having a lovely weekend and aren’t getting too frazzled with Christmas preperations. We’re almost there now!
As if making an appearance in the local paper and Peppermint wasn’t exciting enough, now our little blog has popped up in not one, but two more lovely magazines!
Right now we are super duper chuffed to be featured in both Cloth Magazine and Bespoke Zine! House of Humble appeared in Cloth’s latest blog round up, and in issue 6 of Bespoke there is a gigantic interview with us, over five pages! We are so honoured to be included in both of these amazing publications. Honestly, it make us quite giddy with glee!
April 18 will mark our first blog birthday and we can’t quite believe how far this little online space has come in just one short year. If you could have told us last April that in a year’s time we’d be featured in magazines, we never would have believed you. Thank you so much Cloth and Bespoke, but most of all, thank you for reading, supporting us and helping us to make this blog the place it is. We are so grateful for our tiny corner of the internet and the wonderful community of people who visit us here.
We hope you are having a spiffy week! We are both sending lots of good, happy, nice thoughts your way!
I have been reading Peppermint magazine for a couple of years now and it’s one of my absolute favourites, so you can probably imagine how excited I am over the fact that there are two pieces by me in the current issue! For issue 13 I wrote a little article about some of the lovely places to shop, eat and visit in Bendigo, and put together a DIY for a super simple succulent terrarium. Yay!
And here I am! Listed as a contributer on page 10.
I worked in magazine publishing for a little while after I finished my journalism degree so have had my work featured in a bunch of different places in the past, but to contribute to one of my very favourite magazines was a real honour. If you haven’t already checked out Peppermint and you are interested in organic, recycled, sustainable, fair trade, vintage and local stuff, go now! I think you’ll love it.
(Maybe, if you squint your eyes really tight, you can read this?)
Last week lovely Lauren Mitchell from the Bendigo Advertiser contacted us about a feature on local bloggers that she was writing. The piece ran in the paper yesterday, and along with interviews with I heart Bendigo and The Tea Children, featured a bunch of really kind words about our little blog!
We kind of feel like this officially makes us locals, which fills our hearts with warmth and fuzziness.
We hope you’re all having a jolly good weekend and the coming week is ultra spiffy for you!
