It's been a great first month here on Magic Bean and we're very much looking forward to the next. February will be jam packed with goodies including an 'In Season' feature for late summer, loads of 'Must Do' events and more 'To Market.
We'll have some new features including a tutorial and our 'To the Grocer' and 'Eat Out' columns focusing on some hotspots around Melbourne.
We'll be sharing a whole bunch of wonderful work from artists, designers and crafters from all over, with particular emphasis on home grown talent. We want to focus on unearthing creative talent from Australia and will be posting a call out for submissions early in the month.
The month that has been:
- 'In Season' feature for mid summer including a closer look at the humble zucchini along with a recipe for a scrumptious zucchini cake
- A few must-do events around Melbourne (Rooftop Cinema, Joseph Beuys & Rudolf Steiner at the NGV, Rythm of Africa) and the rest of the globe.
- Our 'To Market' feature on the old Queen Vic
- Our 'To the Grocer' feature on the hidden treasure of China Town, Wing Cheong
- A trip to the local coffee-and-a-good-book haunt, The Journal
- A look at creative how-to books in our 'Book Worm' column
- Work from amazing folk including Diem Chau (carved crayons), Night Owl (eco-friendly cards), Lorena Barrezueta (outstanding ceramics), Reya (hand-felted crafts) and veteran ceramist Gwyn Hanssen Pigott
- A handmade gift guide in celebration of Chinese New Year and the Year of the Rat featuring work from many an Etsy seller
