Lisa's Butterflies

You probably know by now that I love screen-printing in layers but I also love custom orders. So when the lovely Lisa Lange approached me with the request for a new corporate skirt, I immediately thought of printing the Butterflies over my Nature Will Prevail text print. The idea incorporates Lisa's branding of the Orange Monarch Butterfly but with a fresher approach than simply printing on orange fabric. This design was printed on white linen.

Lisa and I met at a women's networking function a couple of years ago and have been great friends ever since. We try to meet up for a monthly breakfast and one of our favourite spots is the Wicked Sisters Cafe at Hawthorne in Brisbane. I thoroughly recommend the vanilla porridge if you visit.



And what could be better than combining business with pleasure to personally delivering the goods to the happy customer?

Lisa's business Beautiful Baskets delivers gift baskets for all occasions. Each basket is personally put together by Lisa with hand-selected items and an emphasis on Australian-made. I love this Rise and Shine basket with morning tea delights. Lisa will also customise gift baskets for you and deliver Australia wide.

The Nature Will Prevail text design is now available in our on-line store in 3 colourways; olive, black or chocolate print. Choose from hemp/organic cotton or organic cotton.
