Spell and her fiance Dougall tripped off to Bali again – this time for a frangipani-laced wedding (not theirs! A friend’s) Of course amongst all the massages, nasi goreng and cocktails she managed to shoot some atmospheric inspiration shots for me to share on the blog.
Anyone who’s been to Bali knows that you have to sift through many a piece of junk to find the goodies – but when you find the hidden treasures boy oh boy do you hit pay-dirt!

I remember when I was there in May I was trying to find a vintage table-runner in street stall and I spotted a grubby old leather bag hidden on a shelf behind a curtain. I asked the lady if I could please see it – and she exclaimed, totally embarrassed “Oh no! Very old! And dirty!” But I insisted and it turned out to be a collection of 4 ancient hand crafted kilim & leather bags. Of course I snapped them up and shipped them back to sell in our shop! Here’s a pic of one of them:

From Moon to Moon
But all treasure hunting and texturized-inspiration aside (aparently texturized isn’t a word but I think it should be) – I’m delighted to finally have Spell back home at Spell HQ – and so happy to have my gorgeous nephew back in my arms!

Also pictured is one of the vintage Kilim Leather Bags (I have 2 left), please email me if you’d like to buy one and I can arrange a quote and sizing info etc. xx

  2. Can't wait for the Turquoise Suede Tassel Bag, it caught my eye as I was reading the post, and thought to myself I wonder where they got that from ! I love everything Spell sells, I just did a post on guys. Currently saving to buy a bag/bracelet from you guys (Uni student on a budget haha) Keep the great designs coming ladies !
    P.S. Go Aussies ! haha

  7. I love Bali. Wish I was as close to it as you guys are, i'd be popping over all the time! These are wonderful shots again. Spell has an amazing tan and body! She looks fantastic! Little bobs is so cute aswell!

  17. this is one utterly amazing post! I've stumbled quite a few different posts from people's time in Bali and so far it looks like one magical place and also one big treasure hunt! love each and every photo :)

    That bag you picked up is beautiful – it's funny how something can be regarded as an OMG HEART ATTACK item or “oh no, this really shouldn't be out on display” piece.

    great post as always

  25. This is an awesome post ladies! I am an avid lover of Bali myself; in fact I love Indonesia so much I continue to study the language, the culture and the history as part of my uni degree! (back at school in my 30's!!!) It's such a magical and mystical place……keep up the lovely posts! Loving the Indo pics!! :)

  27. Wow, just got back from Indo and got the serious post trip blues – then saw your pic of uluwatu and instantly brightened up – such a magical place – started saving already for my next trip!!!!
