www.cowboysandcupcakes.com is almost here!

Well it is almost here!

My website for all things gorgeous for kids and babies & their spaces is coming to fruition. Tomorrow the talents at Website Blue are starting to complete the website complete with shopping Cart. It should be finished in about 3 weeks time. Soon you will be able to search high and low for lots of great interior and gift ideas for the special little people in your life.

The range of Australian made and designed products will include:

Hand-painted ceramics, personalised or not. Plates in 3 sizes, square and Round, 2 handled cups, egg cups, cup and saucer sets, door plaques in 2 sizes as well as wall plaques, pendants, Christmas Decorations, teacher plates, serviette rings plus much more.

Invitations and thank-yous in packs of 15 (with envelopes) as well as high tea, baby shower and christening and baptism or naming day invitations and thank-yous. These are all ready for you to fill in the details or for an editing charge we can personalise each and every invitation. If you like we can design an invitation exclusively for your special occasion or person.

Greeting cards in all sorts of designs for all sorts of occasions, cute little bears hanging around numbers for boys and girls from 0-9, fairies and princesses, pirates and footballers as well as some general designs.

There is a superb collection of hand-painted drawer knobs, 44 designs thus far to chose from. All Australian made and individually hand-painted with the cutest images, from cowboys to princesses to neutral shades and tones for the nursery of the surprise baby (Where Mum and Dad want to keep the gender of the baby a surprise Shhhh!) Hobknobs can also be painted to co-ordinate with your decor.

I am constantly looking for inspiration and get quite excited when I get a special request. I love working to achieve something unique and individual and hope that the client gets a kick out of having a one of a kind gift made just for them.

Please contact me if you have any questions or suggestions.

Kindest Regards

The egg has hatched yay!

And here he is! A little playmate for our Easter chick.

The Easter Bilby is on its way!

This little chick is wondering what came first? She is hoping that soon her egg will hatch and give her a little playmate...who knows, maybe a little brother to play with.

This is one of my illustrations I produced for my greeting card range. Of which you will be able to see soon on my website... www.cowboysandcupcakes.com (coming real soon to the net near you)

More Photos of drawer knobs...

Arrrrr me hearties! A small sample of the boys drawer knobs.

Welcome to the world of Cowboys & Cupcakes!

Hello from Sunny (most of the time) Brisbane.

My name is Angela and I am a craftsperson! So what does that mean? I paint! I paint anything and everything!

I began painting over 3 years ago when I was pregnant with my youngest child, Cooper, now 3.4. I wanted/needed a creative outlet different to what I had been doing...ceramics (read pottery). I started painting personalised canvases for friends children and to my delight they were very well received...mostly by the parents, why didnt I give toys for their birthdays like everyone else did!...I know they will appreciate my gift when they get older!? Anyway, I thought I had something unique happening not to mention how much I loved this new expression of my inablity to sit still doing not much at all. In 2006 I met Ashlea from Bunnycup Embroidery. I now design for Bunnycup's online embroidery website where you can buy downloadable software and stitch or applique some gorgeous designs onto clothing, quilts towels etc., http://www.bunnycup.com/ We have been collaborating for the past 8 months and often share the highs and lows of working from home and being Mum's to very busy children! Ashlea has 2 children and I have 3, Cooper 3, Nic 17 and Sophie 19.

I have also worked with Alyssa from lyssymay http://www.lyssymay.com/ creating some gorgeous greeting cards depicting what she does best...handmade handbags that are more than just a vehicle for your wallet and mobile phone, they are a work of art...wearable art!

I have been playing with an idea for the past 2 years and finally
this week it came to fruition. Hand painted drawer knobs...see I
told you I'd paint anything. Here is a photo of some of the
designs...what do you think?
