We are loving...our KeepCups in All Blog Posts, We are loving....
15 Apr 2012

Every now and then someone is clever enough to invent something that you can't believe no-one else thought of before. The KeepCup is one of those things for us.

Yes, we are loving our KeepCups.

These nifty little cups come along with us to all our markets and events and they never let us down.We miss them terribly if we forget to pack them up into our kit.

They are a little bit of comfort in sometimes unfamiliar environments. And while looking so gorgeous on our table, they also save us from throwing away a sleeve of disposable cups.

You can visit their web page here (http://www.keepcup.com.au/) and even design your own KeepCup. Lovely.

Wearing Six....to dinner in Wearing Six, All Blog Posts, Our Products
29 Mar 2012

This is a very quick post - running out to dinner with friends in 10 minutes.

I decided to wear my beautiful silk Stephanie Vandaros top. Check her out here - we found her at Mosman Markets and her designs are lovely. This top can be worn in a variety of ways and it feel gorgeous on.

But I felt like wearing something new from Six in a Row.

We have been working with a new design, which has been selling out at each event we have taken it to. It is a very long necklace made with our little "seed" beads in a range of delicious colour combinations. I made this charcoal and navy one to come out to dinner with me tonight. We haven't posted any photos of it until now, so we hope you like it.

Bon appetit!

Wearing Six @ Canberra Handmade Market in March in Markets and Events, Wearing Six, All Blog Posts, Our Products
22 Mar 2012

A little twist on our "Wearing Six" posts.

At our markets we like to change our beads through out the day to show our necklaces, bracelets and bangles in action. It is a little bit like channelling Diana Ross in concert, with more "wardrobe" changes than is completely necessary.

Here a series of photos we took at the recent Canberra Handmade Market in March.

We'll be back in Canberra for the Handmade Market on 9 and 10 June.

The Holy Family Art & Craft Show in Markets and Events, All Blog Posts
12 Mar 2012

It is easy for us to remember our anniversay - it coincides with the Holy Family Art & Craft Show. And we can't believe it is three years since we tentatively launched Six in a Row, hoping that they would like our creations.

Due to the amazing responce we got from the Holy Family and Lindfield community, we have kept going. We have loved growing Six from that very first day - it really is like our sixth child. We also shudder when we think about how many pieces of jewellery our hands have made since then!

This year the Holy Family Arts & Crafts Show will be held this weekend. Details for this fantastic fete are:

Date - Saturday 17 March
Time - 9.30am to 4.30pm
Where - Holy Family School. Cnr Pacific Hwy & Highfield Rd, Lindfield

If you're in the area, and in the market for a fun day out, we would love to see you.

We will also have a range of new styles and colours for our loyal customers.

Handmade Market Canberra - 10 & 11 March in Markets and Events, All Blog Posts
5 Mar 2012

Our first market for 2012 and we are off to Canberra this weekend.

Apart from the appeal of a couple of nights away in a lovely hotel, the main reason for our regular trips to Canberra is for the superb Handmade Canberra Market.

Lots of lovely new goodies will be coming with us.

Details for the weekend are:

When - 10am to 4pm, Saturday 10 & Sunday 11 March
Where - The National Convention Centre
Where to find Six in a Row - we will hopefully be located at the far end of the very left hand side aisle.
Things to know - free parking, free entry, over 150 stalls of beautiful handmade loveliness, and the market is all undercover - rain or shine or snow, we'll all be there.
Webpage - http://www.handmademarket.com.au/home.html

And click here to see the list of gorgeous designers who will be there. It looks particularly good!

Wearing Six in a Row last week - 3 March 2012 in Wearing Six, All Blog Posts
4 Mar 2012

Last week I remembered to take a few photographs of how we have been wearing our Six in a Row pieces.

There is aabsolutely no need to even say it, but just in case you thought we might have tickets on ourselves, we know we are not models. Despite this great disappointment(!), we like the idea of showing you what we are making and how we are wearing our Six pieces.

The intention is to pop up regular posts like this one - we hope it gives you some ideas.

Wednesday
Wearing two wooden necklaces at once. They were lovely to wear and we must make some more for the beautiful Canberra Handmade Market next weekend @ the National Convention Centre. We've sold out of stock!

Thursday
Our cloud pebble is a new addition to the Six in a Row family and it has proved to be so very versatile. It really does seem to go with almost everything.

Friday
The weather has been miserable and I had to pull out a warm top. Loved wearing a long navy opera length necklace with the navy knit.

Saturday
Felt like something pretty today, so I went for a combination of 3 "Seed" bead necklaces in white, cream and clear.

We are loving....our gumboots in All Blog Posts, We are loving....
3 Mar 2012

We've been thinking that we have had about enough of the bad news we read and hear everyday.

We can't stop it, but to redress the balance a little we thought we might start a blog thread about things that we are loving.

We will occasionally write about something beautiful we've seen or photographed, something delicious we've eaten or cooked, something we are using (or wishing we were using) that makes us smile, or something interesting we've read. Hopefully if you stumble across these blog posts from time to time, they might just add a little bit of positive to your day.

Today's first "We are loving..." post is brought to you by our trusty gumboots.

Not very glamorous, but our gumboots have been a necessity when we've had outdoor markets on soggy days.

Over the last couple of days we have had an extraordinary amount of rain and we have been so happy that we have those dependable gumboots to pull out of the wardrobe. They are brilliant and all our other shoes thank them for taking the pressure off them.

To all our friends in the country or effected by flooding rivers, we know gumboots are not enough, but we are hoping you are all OK, and staying safe and dry.

Markets dates for before Christmas 2011 in Markets and Events, All Blog Posts
21 Nov 2011

We were thrilled to just get a call from Mosman Council to confirm that we will have a place at both their December Market (Saturday 3 December, 8am to 3pm) and the Twilight Christmas Market (Thursday 15 December, 4.30pm to 9.30pm, or we can no longer see each other in the dark).

These two markets will give those Sydney customers who have been asking us when they can see Six in a Row before Christmas, opportunity to catch us before Christmas.

And with this great news, we thought it was a good time to confirm all our public dates for the rest of the year in both Sydney and Canberra.

Date	Event	Location
Friday 25 (evening) and Saturday 26 November	2011 Undercurrent Design Market	National Portait Gallery, Canberra
Thursday 1 December	Balgowlah North Public School Twilight Market	Balgowlah North
Saturday 3 December	Mosman Market	Mosman
Thursday 15 December	Mosman Twilight Christmas Market	Mosman
Saturday & Sunday, 17 & 18 December	Canberra Handmade Upmarket	Canberra Convention Centre

Enough typing for now - it's back to the beads for us. Hope to see you at one of these lovely events.
