If you read my little blurb over to the right, you’ll see I have too many ideas in my head. Sometimes this means to get one out quickly to make room for the others, I don’t always resolve every aspect fully, and when I come back to it later I’m not entirely happy with it. [...]
Sunday evening I went out with Yumi of ZilpahTartBags.com to shoot for her new catalogue. The sky threatened to rain and it was disappointing to not get a little more sun for the shots, but near the end it peeked out from behind the clouds and we got some nice photos. We went to the [...]
I have finally finished the website (lots of hard work and long hours, still a couple of little things I need to tweak design-wise but the content is all there *phew*) and created all the listings in the online store, and she’s all ready to go!
About Madly Deeply: Madly Deeply is a business that I have recently relaunched in 2009. I used to design, make and sell jewellery about 5 years ago under the name “Glam Jewellery”. The Glam label was popular among friends, family and online, but wound down and slowly came to a halt as I finished my University studies in Graphic Design and Education, and started my career as a Senior Secondary Teacher. Luckily I was wise enough to keep all my jewellery making supplies and am now relaunching the business under it’s new name, with 8 popular earring designs ready for retail and wholesale.

If you don’t already know me, then you also probably don’t know what I do, in life. You know, to earn a buck. I’m a teacher that looks like a student. I’m halfway through my second year of teaching college (in Canberra, Australia, that’s year 11 & 12. 16-18 year olds). I look about 17. [...]

Welcome to my little corner of the blogosphere. I'm Mikaela, I am female, 25, married, and busy by choice. I love life and have too many ideas in my head, and wish there were more hours in the day (I'm sure old people always said that when I was growing up). I live in and love Canberra, Australia (2 hours to beach or snow, what more could you ask for?). For more about who I am and what I do, go to the about page =)

We had giant hamburgers for dinner. Bun, tomato sauce, mustard, cheese, hot chilli meat pattie, more cheese, pineapple, beetroot, tomato, lettuce, avocado, bun. YUM. Giant! I had two. See my last post about always eating too much.
Yesterday I was in Coles and saw this yummo looking Italian bread which inspired me to make Bruschetta as an entreĆ© to dinner last night. I forgot to get Olive Oil when I was there so had to improvise with peanut oil, but it wasn’t too bad. I buttered the bread (no oil, remember?), spread [...]
This is a recipe I sort of made up about 4 years ago. I think it’s probably based on something I had once and I just tried to remember the ingredients when putting it together. I’ve got it down to a fine art now, everyone loves this salad. It goes perfectly with snags and steak [...]
Before going to the coast last week I made 2 ribbon organiser boxes. One turned out really well, the other not so much. Here is the latter, made from an old tissue box. The reason I don’t like the end result is because the tissue box was too flimsy to begin with, the walls went [...]
As promised, here are Girds’ and Harley’s new doggie beds! The reason I decided to make these is because their current beds are lumpy, big oofy pillows, with blankets on top. They take up far too much room in our bedroom, aren’t very portable, and are hard to wash. These beds, however, are the opposite [...]
Yesterday and today were spent putting my house back together, so I haven’t had a chance to complete the DIY projects I wanted to do today to show here. Hopefully I can finish the doggie beds tonight as well as at least start on my ribbon organiser… We’ll see how I go, I still have [...]
