Only 8 days to go!! And then it’s gone... So please do whatever you can to spread the word 🙏🏽 The more pledges that come through the more impact we can have✨ And to inspire you to nudge your friends and families (workmates can wait till Monday) I’ve got a very sweet sloth to giveaway. He’s absolutely lovely and brings a very calm energy to whatever your situation might be. He’s like a cup of chamomile tea...that you can hug 🤗 So anyone who can comment below and let me know that they’ve been the reason someone pledged TODAY goes in the running to win a sloth later tonight✨ Too easy! (Except of course if you’re like me and feel cringey asking friends to do stuff) 🥴

Watch how smart toddler instantly keeps that banana safe from big brother 😄😂 Did you know that each banana & tree rattle sold will have a tree planted in Cambodia? Such a lovely gift to give 🌱

If you leave Hope street, and walk down Separation street, you’ll find me at the bottom of Grieve street 💔Why oh why are break ups so damn hard? And what is it about weekends that make them so much harder? And when will these pesky tears stop? And why do they play Adele songs wherever I go? 💔 Is it ok if I just hide under my doona for the next six months?

So EVERY DAY until our crowdfunding campaign finishes March 1, I’m having a giveaway ✨😇✨ I’m just so keen to have you guys get free products instead of paying Facebook for ads 😎 But this only works if you guys participate and share and tag and comment and like and all that “engagement” stuff that the Facebook fairies seem to reward🙄 So today’s winner...is none other than the lovely Nerida McDonald who is matching her hubby’s wine budget on her magnetic monkey obsession...but can now finally add a Koko&Lala Koala to her Happily Made collection✨ Happy ear stroking!!!🥰

**Weekend Kickstarter Giveaway**
Nice IKEA dude: I’m either going to get this right or really offend you.
Me: you’re going to offend me.
NID: you’re Canadian.
Me: you’ve offended me.
NID: no no no...I’ll get it right.
Me: I charge a dollar for every wrong guess.
NID: you’re Californian.
Me: that’s a dollar.
NID: East coast?? Me: two dollars.
NID: what?? Mid west?? Me: three dollars.
NID: oh man, I’ll just hand you my card.
Me: I’ll be kind. I’m Swedish.
NID: no way!!! me: and Israeli.
NID: what? No!
me: I’d be very rich if I had started charging people much earlier in life.
NID: could be a good side gig.
me: except it’s torture for my kids. I sound weird in every country I’m in.
NID: at least they have an interesting mum.
me: they do, but there’s only so many times they want to hear my life story told to strangers.
NID: they’ll appreciate having an interesting mum when they’re older.
me: I hope so.
NID: you should write a book.
me: I have.
NID: you have? Really?? me: yep, in fact, it’s about to be republished in my name. Literally this week.
NID: told you you’re interesting!
me: you did.
NID: and you can pronounce all the IKEA names correctly!!!! 🇸🇪 All that to say that the Kickstarter weekend giveaway was inspired by tonight’s IKEA visit. Turns out they are selling these cardboard Easter eggs that my mum used to give to us when I was a kid in Sweden. They’re definitely not as cute looking and have zero magical vibes...but...I thought that I could add some Swedish lollies and three Easter Bunny monkeys and hopefully some magic appears. If you’re a super parent like my mum you can make a map or cryptic clue guide for your kids to find it. Or if your child is really young a long piece of yarn to follow until the egg is found 🧶 And of course you don’t need to have any kids to win this and just keep it for yourself 💛

I’ve got two of these sets to give away😇

All you need to do is tag a friend who you think would love some Easter Bunny monkeys and tell them about why our crowdfunding campaign is the sweetest thing on the internet right now...and one lucky person will be picked Sunday night 🐣 🐣 🐣 🐣

Thinking back to happier times with my Cambodian boyfriend. Why oh why did I leave him behind??? He was such a good listener. Quietly supportive. Photogenic. Magnetic personality. Soft to cuddle. Easy to get along with. Fun travel companion.... 💔

For the past month I’ve done everything I can (only restricted by a mini budget and moving house 🤦🏽‍♀️) to get as many like minded people on board our crowdfunding ride as possible. I’ve got ten days left. I’d love your help in spreading the word because this is such a rare opportunity for us to create a difference for marginalised women. If you have any suggestions on how to get the word out, please don’t hesitate to get in touch✨🙏🏽✨

Today is UN Day of Social Justice. There are so many things that I’m passionate about when it comes to social justice... and it’s just impossible for me to be a bystander. I could mention a lot of different stories that tug on my heart right now..but I’ve decided to dedicate this post to the one that is literally happening down the road from me right now. You see, in Preston, just one suburb away from me, there are about 40 men locked away in a hotel. Yep, you read that correctly. A hotel! They’ve not committed any crimes and they have not been told how long they will be locked away for. It’s completely inhumane and a guaranteed way to destroy someone’s spirit. I have no idea what can be done so our leaders will act with mercy and let these men out. Today @lidiathorpegunnaigunditj will be visiting one of the men and hopefully shine a light on a shameful chapter in Melbourne’s history. I made this banner four years ago and it came up as a Facebook memory today. I’m ashamed that it’s still relevant. If you have any suggestions on how we can help these men please comment below 🆘💔

Two years ago I was exploring the markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh looking for discarded fabrics to transform into treasures ❤️I’m so grateful that since then I’ve got the pocket bags being made that are using upcycled fabric. Less completely fine “stuff” ending up in landfill!!✨

There’s beauty everywhere 💛

All ready to share my story ✨💛✨ @busybirdpublishing

Instagram post 2247120142336997214_1944074602

Tonight when I share my story at @busybirdpublishing I will be keeping these women in my mind’s eye. They are the ones that keep me moving forward when I just want to stay home and curl up into a ball under my doona and evaporate. These women have an incredible skill and a dream to give their children a better future...what they need is someone to be the link to the customers in Australia (and around the globe) to buy their treasures. Somehow that person turned out to be me. Not exactly sure how that happened but here I am. Doing whatever I can to generate more jobs so more women can be trained and make an income from home. Your role in the equation is to either purchase their goods or spread the word to likeminded friends. Together we can make this happen 💥❤️💥 Find our more in our Kickstarter link 🌱
