Who said kids’ brands have to be bright? 🌿

We all know I’m a sucker for colour. The brighter the better usually. 😂

But when I’m creating a brand, it’s not actually about my favourite colours (or yours, for that matter). It’s about finding the colours, fonts, imagery and overall feel that make sense for the business.

Little Wildlings is a perfect example.

They’re an outdoor early learning centre with a big focus on nature, outdoor play and exploration... so a rainbow-bright palette just wouldn’t have felt right.

This is a brand that’s all about getting muddy, exploring nature and giving kids the space to just be kids. So instead, we went earthy, warm and natural.

It’s still playful and still very much a kids’ brand. It just feels like THEM.

And that’s really the point.

A kids’ brand should feel like the business behind it. Sometimes bright and colourful is exactly right (and you KNOW I’m always here for that 😂), but sometimes the brand calls for something completely different.

The fun bit is figuring out what fits yours.

So if you have a kids’ brand and you’re not quite sure what that looks like yet, come say hi. I’d love to help you figure it out. 🤎

Something a little fitting for the first day of spring 🌸🐝

I don’t often get the chance (or the time) to enter design competitions, but I managed to sneak in a few hours over the weekend to put together an entry for the Beechworth Honey comp.

The theme was Bees, Flowers & Food... so obviously I was very happy to oblige 😂

Fingers crossed! 🤞🍯

Always LOVE working with Bandicute (handmade educational toys and children’s clothing) 😊🎄❤️

We’ve been creating Aussie Christmas together for a few years now, so the challenge is always coming up with something that feels completely different from the year before.

After throwing a few ideas around, we landed on wombats and Chrissy by the Sea was born.

Bandicute’s 2026 Family Christmas range launches TOMORROW, so if you’re a family Christmas outfit kinda person, head over to Bandicute (handmade educational toys and children’s clothing) for a peek.

Thanks for having me back for another Christmas, Bandicute. Always a fun one! ☀️🎄

Ever wondered why people are finding your business… but not choosing you?

I’ve put together a 2-minute quiz to help you figure out what might be getting in the way.

⭐️ Maybe your brand isn’t building enough trust.
⭐️ Maybe things feel a little inconsistent.
⭐️ Or maybe you’ve simply outgrown the brand you started with.

This quiz will point you in the right direction, with some practical tips on what you can do next.

Classical music + A cheeky bin chicken.
Not exactly the pairing you’d expect. 😬

When Brisbane Arts Diary approached me, they wanted a brand that celebrated classical music, theatre and the arts.....but they also wanted it to feel welcoming, approachable and unmistakably Brisbane.
The challenge wasn’t designing an ibis.
It was making sure the ibis didn’t make the brand feel silly.

The answer wasn’t to choose between sophisticated or playful.

It was finding the balance between the two.
A strong brand isn’t built by following the stereotypes of your industry. It’s built by understanding how you want people to feel when they discover you.

In this case, that meant creating a visual identity that feels artistic and credible, while still having enough personality to make people smile.
Because sometimes the most memorable brands are the ones that break expectations.

I’d love to know...
What’s an industry that you think could use a little more personality?

Can you guess these two iconic Queensland locations? 👀

Unless you work in design, you’ve probably never come across the term “environmental graphics”.

It’s basically a fancy name for graphics and illustrations designed for physical spaces.

Think murals, wall graphics, signage and illustrations that help transform offices, schools, hospitals and other workplaces into spaces that tell a story.

These two are part of a collection of 13 large-scale illustrations I created for the meeting rooms of a Brisbane corporate office.

I’ve just added the full project to my website if you’d like to take a look.

Not every business needs a new logo.
Sometimes they need a stronger brand around the one they already have.

🌸 That’s exactly what this project was about.

SYDNEY FLORIST • SYDNEY FLOWER DELIVERY • FIVE GENERATIONS 💐 already had a strong, recognisable logo. My role wasn’t to reinvent it… it was to build a complete visual identity around it, giving the business a consistent look and feel across every customer touchpoint.

From social media and email marketing to custom icons, illustrations and patterns, every piece was designed to make their marketing easier, more consistent and instantly recognisable.

Running a business is basically one big series of decisions.

👉What to post
👉Who to reply to
👉What to prioritise
👉What to have for dinner🤷‍♀️

The last thing you need is to be making the same branding decisions every single day too.

Every time you create a flyer, social post, email or brochure, are you asking yourself...

Which font? Which colours? Which logo? Which graphic? Does this even look right? 🤔

That’s exactly what a good brand is designed to help with.

When your colours, fonts, graphics and templates have already been thoughtfully put together, marketing becomes sooooo much easier.

Less second-guessing.
Less starting from scratch.
More consistency.
More confidence.

Because you’ve got better things to do!
