Two gorgeous pillow cases from Sunday Morning Designs, each featuring an illustration by Dylan Martorell, screen printed by hand in brown.
On the first pillow case, a night owl is kept company by the moon and two cute mice. The owl's feathers have transformed into intricate patterns which are almost mesmerising. The forest details on the second pillow case echo the circular patterns within the owl's feathers, with large round blossoms or leaf clusters dispersed through shapley trunks and branches.
The two images complement each other beautifully, and the pillow cases are made from pale cream coloured 100% baby combed cotton which is super soft. (The fabric is a knit rather than a weave - making it even softer.)
N.B. Pillows not included.

Wattage:
Electric Firefly recommend a maximum of 60 watts or an Energy-Saving compact fluorescent lamp. (A stronger globe won't melt or burn your shade, but they use a lot more electricity, and may cause the material to become brittle over time.)

Mainichi has handmade this "Tanoshii" necklace from hand dyed yellow repurposed bamboo beads. The beads have been threaded onto white Japanese braided cord and tied to a length of yellow leather thonging. The overall shape and contrasting textures of this necklace look fantastic, and these fresh, summery colours really give your skintone a lift!
Size:
Approx. 14cm wide (5.5")
Approx. 11cm high (4.3")
Approx. 102cm long (3'4.2") leather strand
The last photo shows the same design modelled in green.
Mainichi pieces have been handmade by Melbourne-based designer Dearne Herrenberg. The materials used often inform the design and also
reflect the philosophy behind the name (Mainichi translates from Japanese as "everyday").
Mainichi design inverts the concept of precious jewellery. There are no precious metals or jewels in these pieces, instead, unexpected, ordinary and everyday materials become pieces of wearable art.
