Sneak Peak - Zana Products

Guess what, such exciting news, my mom and I are launching a home decor line through Etsy! I have been playing around with Etsy for some time now and been selling some vinyls and prints. Its such a rad platform to build an online store with a real identity. Plus you can avoid dealing directly face to face with customers as well as not having the overheads of a real store. Not to mention the global audience.


We are starting off with cute minimalist typographic and some other design throw cushions. We are also going to offer prints of these designs for your home! So exciting right? We hope to one day create jobs for African woman who have families to support, that has been my mom's dream for many years and we are taking this on together!


My mom has been in the print industry for years and she is such a light when it comes to how to make / print things, or even what materials to use. She seems to know everything and have an endless bag of tricks.
Check out the sneaky peak of our products below. Zana Products will be launching later today.

A flat update from Hazlemere


left: little dangly thing I made out of drift wood and glass and some brown rope.
right: two posters taken from the Design Times newspaper that I bought at the Design Indaba. Very cool and inspirational newspapers full of cool shit to say the least. Plus they make your walls look nice when you done reading them!


A vintage racket (top) from the milnerton market a few moons ago and (bottom) my baby tree on my balcony. I just wrote on his black plastic pot with some chalk! Pretty cute and easy- give your plants a voice (- haha THE lamest thing ive ever said, I know) but still, do it!

The Goddess Guide



My lovely friend Britney shared this with me and I was so excited to share it on! Since we where in primary school we have both LOVED finding bits and bobs and filling our "homework" diary with dreams and creative doodles about fashion, bffs, boys, life and love. Check out the work by Gisèle Scanlon we created a gorgeous series of books called "The Goddess Guide" that tells fashion, food and beauty through various creative forms.
