marilyn FOUNDER

This season I am so thrilled with the fashion and whimsy feel that I have decided to do a real spring clean of my wardrobe, that means no more ‘one day will be skinny like when I was twelve clothes’, no more fat clothes and no more ‘maybe it will come in back in fashion one day’ draws. Instead I am going to say good bye entirely to all of it and start with a fresh new wardrobe.

“My favourite flower is a Gerbera”

Spring is by far the best season of the year, although it has been a tad chiller this year, the winter warmers have stayed out a month longer then what i would’ve liked. The beautiful blooming flowers, baby animals, gardening, planting and most of all sunny days, the re-introduction of tees, skirts and thongs. Welcoming all the new into your world.

lulu FASHIONISTA

An amazing fashion filled, fun and fantastic year, Italy’s fashion shows, history, art and culture and then more recently LA where the world’s most fashion forward trendsetters reside, and Las Vegas the city that never sleeps. The fashion industry is one that will forever evolve and change and I am continuously grateful for every opportunity.

“My favourite flower is a Hibiscus”

ana MARKETING

A successful, eventful and bountiful year filled with new opportunities and many new starts. Love the diversity, exploring marketing opportunities for Oranges and Lemons Boutique. Fashion for kids continues to intrigue me, so much more fun than adult fashion for me.

The moment winter turns to spring, a surge of excitement begins. The anticipation of fabulous weather later days, summer fruits, good old fashioned Aussie BBQ , holidays and of course the hope of new things to come.

It’s beginning to sound alot like Christmas lyrics begin to circle my mind, shop windows and colors brighten streets everywhere. Christmas Decorations draped over our city centers, the seasons are changing the thoughts of cold slowly disappear from our thoughts and the sunshine warms begins to warm our hearts minds and bodies.

The reflections, unexpected changes and lost or found dreams of the past year settle in our minds. Mostly this time of year is a time of joy, frantic Christmas lists and dinners to consider the festive season has begun and we hope to start a little part of it right here.

Enjoy our amazing fashion label stories it’s always nice to hear a little bit about where the labels you love your kids to wear came from. Our seasons choice of colors and tones are not to be missed!

Happy Shopping!

At PAPER WINGS, their focus is on enhancing the lives of children by creating products that positively influence the way they look, feel, play and experience their environment. All pieces are designed to be ‘every day favourites’ - lovingly worn out rather than outgrown.

Jason Gibaud and Michelle Fallon provide the artistic vision and technical expertise behind our unique company.

The inherent beauty and function of PAPER WINGS collections reflects Jason and Michelle’s success in costume design, feature film production and their combined experience in architecture & interior design.

The joy of raising their own children, Vevette, Esther and little Kitty is key to the practicality, comfort and great fun inherent in all PAPER WINGS and LITTLE WINGS products.

The breathtaking rural setting of our design studio in Northern New South Wales, Australia, is also a great source of inspiration.

PAPER WINGS design influences are wonderfully eclectic, with strong links to historical shapes, traditional crafts, and to both vintage and contemporary graphics. With a professional background in internationally acclaimed feature films such as Moulin Rouge, Star Wars and Peter Pan, and many theatre and television productions, Jason and Michelle have evolved a fresh and unusual approach to range development.

All collections are individually manufactured and most importantly, hand finished with the greatest care. PAPER WINGS is committed to providing premium quality products, and utilizing the finest natural fibres.

PAPER WINGS celebrates the freedom of being children, looking like children and - most importantly - feeling like children.

A CREATIVE MIX OF PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE IDEAS IN CHILDREN’S PRODUCT DESIGN.

Chalk n Cheese began in 2005 after director Tracy Eastwood returned from designing in the UK. Tracy felt that children’s wear all looked the same and wanted to introduce a more unique style, inspired by European fashion.

Instead of pink hearts and butterflies, the brand reflects the ‘wonder years’. Days of growing up, when TV was a treat and playing hide and seek were the ‘norm’. Summer days running through sprinklers, playing cricket in the drive, lemonade icy poles and cheezles perched on every finger. Growing up is fun, colourful, and full of memories. Chalk n Cheese brings those memories flooding back.

The fabrics are truly individual with simple styling that will last the seasons to come. The signature A Line dress evokes memories of dresses our Mothers made us. Worn in summer with bare feet or in winter with tights and a long sleeve! The fabrics and styling isn’t tizzy or over embellished. Let children be children with clothes that look smart and fashionable. Clothes that can go into a washing machine and come out looking brand new! Our customers continually let us know how happy they are with the quality.

Proudly manufacturing in Melbourne, we support the local trade and Australian made is very important to us.

Let chalk n cheese be your child’s favourite outfit.

CHALK N CHEESE OFFERS A BEAUTIFUL RANGE OF CHILDRENS WEAR FOR YOUR LITTLE ONES. BOUTIQUE CLOTHING FOR BOYS AND GIRLS, FROM NEWBORN TO 8 YEARS OLD. EXPERIENCE THE FREE SPIRITED RANGE OF CHILDREN’S CLOTHING FOR YOURSELF.

Colors and numbersAn elementary guide to numerology and colour therapy.

“Colours and numbers have a lot of significance for us. We each have our own personal number vibrations and personal colour vibrations. Some of these numbers, such as our date of birth, are permanent. We also have temporary personal colours that change with the calendar. By consciously surrounding ourselves with our personal colours, we become more in tune with the cosmic forces.

Colours and numbers are useful to our lives and attitudes. They may form a basis for our affirmations and declarations about us, which is exactly the purpose of this book.“May every Colours & Numbers day be a joyous one for you?”

I hope that 2013 will be an exciting, joyous, healthy, prosperous, and soul-satisfying year for you as 2012.

Here are five awesome New Year’s quotes that will hopefully inspire and make 2013 your best year ever!

01. “We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year’s Day.” ~ Edith Lovejoy Pierce

02. “The Old Year has gone. Let the dead past bury its own dead. The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time. All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!” ~ Edward Payson Powell

03. “Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.” ~ Hal Borland

04. “Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.” ~ Benjamin Franklin

05. “Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past.” ~ Henry Ward Beecher

2013 year of the snake

let this new year be one filled with great prosperity, success and freedom

2013 is the Year of the Snake and it begins on February 10, 2013. The Snake is the sixth sign of the 12 animal signs in the Chinese Zodiac. The snake is the enigmatic, intuitive, introspective, refined and collected of the Animals Signs. Ancient Chinese wisdom says a Snake in the house is a good omen because it means that your family will not starve. People born in the Year of the Snake are keen and cunning, quite intelligent and wise. They are great mediators and good at doing business. Therefore, you should have good luck if you were born in the Year of the Snake.

begin to appreciate the way life has unfolded to bring you to this moment. And you begin to appreciate your gifts, as well as the gifts of others, that make the world such a remarkable place. Writing in your journal can help you appreciate the connection between all the different

aspects of your life.

04 Deeper awareness

Once you begin to notice and appreciate the world around you, your awareness of life deepens. You become more mindful about what you say and what you do, and more aware of the feelings of those around you – friends and family – and how your words and actions have the power to draw you closer to them or push them further away. You become aware of the choices that you’ve made in your life. As your awareness deepens, you’ll begin to recognize deeper connections between people and things, as well as the flow of energy linking us to one another.

05 Gratitude

With this deeper sense of awareness comes gratitude for each moment. The more time that you devote to keeping your journal, the more your senses will expand into the world. You’ll be able to see, hear, taste, smell, and feel things that you might have missed if you were still rushing through life. As your senses expand, you’ll begin to notice more and more things to appreciate, which leads to a

greater sense of gratitude.

If you think you have too little time or are convinced you must finish a certain task before you begin keeping a journal, perhaps you’ll consider these five blessings and

ask yourself if you can afford to live without them.

Why not make time now and begin?

Blessings-of-Keeping-a-Journal.html

the 5 blessings of keeping a journalBY BRUCE BLACK

If you’re like most people today, you have little time to spare, and the idea of setting aside a few extra minutes to keep a daily journal sounds like just another way of squandering away precious moments of your day.

But when you set aside a few moments – even if it’s only five minutes before breakfast – to keep a daily journal, you may discover that not only does time seem to slow down, but your view of the world (and of yourself) comes into sharper focus.

Here’s a short list of five benefits that you’ll discover as soon as you start keeping your journal:

01. Slowing down

The moment you open your journal and begin writing, you’ll find that taking time to reflect on what you do during your day will help you slow down. Instead of rushing from task to task, trying to cram a list of activities into a short time, you can step outside the pressure of deadlines and multitasking, and simply enjoy the moment. Once you slow down long enough to write in your journal, you can take pleasure in the way your thoughts unfold. You can hear what you’re thinking. You can see the people and the scenery around you more clearly.

02. Noticing the world

Writing in your journal helps you notice things that you may have overlooked in the rush to get things done. You’ll start to notice what you may have missed or overlooked while you were speeding past. Your journal helps shift your perspective. It’s like the difference between traveling across country by foot instead of by plane. When you slow down, you begin to notice the world and can take in a lot more of life.

03. Appreciating life.

In the process of slowing down and noticing the world, you come to appreciate the beauty in your own world, the people who give your life its richness and texture, and the work that allows you to find meaning in your life. You

Eggshell FlowerpotsYoung gardeners can use eggshells as pots to start seeds and coffee-stirrer tags to foretell what will pop up where. Plant seeds according to package instructions, and nestle planters in an egg carton on a sunny windowsill, where they can be watered easily. The first leaves to sprout will be the cotyledons or seed leaves, which supply nutrients to the young plant until the first true leaves (resembling those of the parent plant) appear. When plants have grown to about 3 inches and have at least two sets of true leaves, they are ready to be transplanted to the garden. (Remove them from the eggshells first.)

Bottle TerrariumsTerrariums are easy to assemble and don’t require much maintence. Let kids choose their favorite succulents, then place the terrarium in a spot where everyone can enjoy it.

Sprinkle an inch of cactus soil in a clean glass bottle. Divide the succulents into single-stem plantlets, each with roots. Using chopsticks, place the plantlets in the bottle one at a time. Use the chopsticks again to nestle each plantlet into the soil. Once the plants are situated, keep them indoors and out of direct sunlight. These desert plants require only a drop of water every two weeks or so.

Snow GlobesThe shimmering magic of snowfall is always transfixing, whether it’s outside your window or inside this classic toy. Homemade globes let you create a wintry scene straight out of your own imagination.

Almost any jar works for this project: Baby-food, pimiento, and olive jars are good choices. Look for plastic or ceramic figurines (metal ones are prone to rust) at flea markets and hobby or model-railroad shops. Synthetic evergreen tips are available at many floral-supply stores.

If the jar lids are not in seasonal colors already, paint them with oil-based enamel paint. Sand the inside of the lid until the surface is rough. With clear-drying epoxy, adhere the figurine to the inside of the lid, and let the epoxy dry.

Fill the jar almost to the top with distilled water; add a pinch of glitter and a dash of glycerin (available at drugstores) to keep the glitter from falling too quickly. Don’t add too much, or the glitter will stick to the bottom of the jar when it’s flipped. Screw on the lid tightly, being careful not to dislodge the figurine. Turn the jar over and back again -- and let it snow.

Snowflake LightsCreate an idealized winter wonderland indoors using snowflake-like bouquet holders and a string of holiday lights. To make one of these garlands, slide a store-bought paper bouquet holder over each bulb. Hang the “snowflakes” inside a doorway or a window, and then plug in the lights.

Festive EnvelopesKids can make handmade envelopes from magazine pages or leftover wrapping paper.

Unfold a regular envelope to use as a template. Choose patterned paper larger than the envelope (or stick mismatched pieces together with glue). Trace the envelope onto the paper, cut out along lines, fold (using the envelope as a guide), and secure with glue stick. If mailing, add a label.

CLASSIC ABC BLOCKSWhen teaching your child how to read, write, sort, and just have fun, nothing beats simplicity. This set of 28 blocks is crafted from sustainable Michigan basswood, then embossed and printed with a colorful range of non-toxic inks. Each block tells a story, and since there are several sides to any story, you’ll find a variety of animals, numbers, math symbols, and four full alphabets.

44 MM CUBESAGES 2+$69.95

ITALIAN ABC BLOCKSThe international language of romance is the foundation for a block set your child will love. Our 28 block Italian language set features letters, numbers, and animal pictures. Say ciao to a set of blocks made from sustainable Michigan basswood that can be loved for generations to come.

44 MM CUBESAGES 2+$69.95

NURSERY RHYME 28 BLOCK SETHickory, dickory, block. This 28 block Nursery Rhyme set is attractive, educational and fun, and makes a great baby shower or birthday gift. Each block is embossed with two silhouette images from Mother Goose stories, with the nursery rhyme text on the other four sides. Mother Goose isn’t our only muse, however. Each block is made from sustainable Michigan Basswood, which is also good for Mother Earth.

Uncle Goose sometimes feels like that eccentric yet eloquent friend of yours that seems to have stepped out of an O. Henry short story from the late 19th century. After all, ours is a company that stepped back over one hundred years in time to hand-manufacture classic wood alphabet blocks in an era of computer games and digital toys.

We labor over our products with the work ethic and artistry of midwestern elves from the 1800’s. Other than Santa, very few people you know personally still hand manufacture wood toys. We seem to be pressing against an invisible boundary that lies between what is possible and what is practical.

As modern business people, we realize that hand-manufacturing toy blocks is seen as an unlikely and maybe even unfashionable thing to do. It’s passé. It’s

outmoded. It’s out of step with our fast-paced, high-tech world. But as artists, not creating blocks seems completely unreasonable... and maybe even dangerous.

We can’t even imagine living in a world without alphabet blocks. If Uncle Goose didn’t bother to craft them, this iconic toy might very well become extinct.

We simply couldn’t stand to live in that world. Blocks inspire. In particular, our blocks are fascinating to those who long to feel inspired by sensual participation in the physical realm.

We’re really in love with learning, design, and creativity. And we love blocks. So this is what we do, and how we approach our craft. It’s simple, creative, old-fashioned, and maybe a little quirky; but that’s the essence of Uncle Goose Toys.

wraps & decoration inspiration We here at oranges and lemons are always on the hunt for great blogs and inspirational women to share there stories and boy did we uncover a gold mine!! Whilst getting lost amongst all the inspiration on pinterest we stumbled across the Creative mint! What an absolutely beautiful inspirational blog. We hadd to share these beautiful images to get you inspired, creative and crafty for the coming holiday period.

About Leslie from the Creative MintHi - my name is Leslie and I recently moved from Los Angeles to Vancouver Island, Canada where I grew up. I started my blog, A Creative Mint, to share and store my little projects and photographs. I am interested in all aspects of design, from collage and watercolors to architecture and cooking!

I have both a degree in Architecture and Interior Design. However, I never really practiced either. Immediately after finishing school I had the opportunity to team up with a manufacturing and distributing company. In collaboration with them I developed, designed and did packaging direction for lots of products sold in many of the major retailers in North America.

I loved my job but the deadlines, days of travel around the country and long trips to Asia did not fit with my idea of family life. When I had my first child five years ago I stepped away. I still consult from time to time but most of my days are occupied with my little kids or dreaming about what I can do here for you... little projects that I want to share.

Spice BiscuitsMakes 12

Prep: 15 minutes | Cook: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

+ 2 tbs treacle

+ 75g unsalted butter

+ 250g plain flour

+ 1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda

+ 1 tsp ground cinnamon

+ 1/2 tsp ground ginger

+ 50g caster sugar

+ 1 egg, beaten

+ 20ml (1 tbs) milk

1. Preheat oven to 170°C.

2. Melt treacle and butter in a small saucepan. Sift flour, soda, cinnamon and ginger in a bowl.

3. Add a good pinch of salt and a grinding of black pepper. Stir in sugar and the treacle mixture, then add the egg and beat until combined.

4. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll out on a lightly floured surface and use decorative cutters (we used star shapes) to cut shapes from the pastry.

5. Place on a greased baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool. (To use biscuits as a gift decoration, use a wooden skewer to make a hole in each biscuit before baking.

6. As soon as the biscuits come out of the oven re-open where the indent for the hole is by again using the skewer.)

7. When cool, thread ribbon through hole and use to decorate gifts.

“Sometimes you get discouraged

Because I am so small,

And always leave my fingerprints

On furniture and walls.

But everyday I’m growing,

I’ll be grown up someday,

And all these tiny handprints

Will simply fade away.

So here’s a handprint

Just so you can recall,

Exactly how my fingers looked

When I was very small.”

“the greatest gift that

could ever be,

is the love my mummy gives to

me”

Page 95: Purple Orange Edition 3

my handprint

This is my hand.

My hand will do

A thousand loving things for you

And you will remember

When I am tall...

That once my hand

Was just this small.
