And we’re away!You saw the loom setup, next is the actual weaving process …I’m making a warp full of Liquorice Allsorts scarves, so it’s a lot of fun changing colours every now and then, and making colour decisions as I go. It’s a very ‘free and easy’ way to weave, and I’m loving it :DEvery Liquorice Allsort is one-of-a-kind, so you will never have the same one as anyone else!These are going to Fleurieu Arthouse, but I have created a ‘Made to Order’ listing, as I have had a few queries about this one … and they sold out pretty...

‘Dressing the loom’ before I can even start weaving!What does that mean? Well, it’s just putting the warp onto the loom.And when I say ‘putting’, I mean:- sleying the reed- threading the heddles- winding the warp onto the back beam- tying the front of the warp onto the front beam- tying up the treadlesAnd then away we go!

#sorrynotsorry On this warp: a birthday scarf for my stepdaughter Lily, and more scarves for my stockist The Jam Factory.This was my wild and crazy Friday night, haha!

OK, all this talk about Authentic Style … but where do I start?Let’s do a wardrobe audit!For the next week (or more), write down what you wear every single day.Include all accessories, jewellery, shoes, etc as well as clothing.You may be surprised what you reach for every single day, and what you ignore.Let me know in the comments what you are discovering!

Lily’s 16th birthday scarf!I asked Lily to choose a colour … and I was shocked that she chose hot pink! I mean, it IS fabulous (and one of my favourite colours), but it’s not normally a colour she gravitates towards.And doesn’t she look FABULOUS?You can find your own fabulousness on my website :)
