Honest conversations make better brands 🌿

These are some of the questions I’ve had over the years… and the unfiltered answers.

I’m an open book- so ask away! Are there any questions you’ve always wanted to ask about working with a graphic designer?

I’ve been involved in many discussions about AI and its use in business of late, and don’t get me wrong, it can be very valuable! But let’s see how it stacks up against a graphic designer…

AI might be fast, convenient and cheap, but it can’t replace:

Human intuition
Originality
Strategy + Intention
Taste + Refinement
Soul!

{P.S it also won’t generate all of the correct logo files for you, or tell you how to use them!}

I spoke with two business owners this week who had invested thousands into their website builds… but had no idea how to make even the smallest change.

They couldn’t update a photo.
They couldn’t change their opening hours.

And that’s a problem.

Your website should belong to you. Not just legally, but practically.

You should feel confident making simple updates if you want to. Adding a new service. Updating your pricing. Adding photos to a gallery. Fulfilling orders and changing inventory.

Not every business owner wants to manage their own site, and that’s completely fine. But you should have the option. You should understand your platform. You should have access. You should feel empowered.

The right platform isn’t the fanciest one. It’s the one that suits you.
Your skills. Your confidence. Your capacity. Your business.

Because a good website isn’t just beautiful. It’s usable. And it puts you in the driver’s seat.



Bird & Branch websites are designed to be both beautiful and approachable, so you always feel in control of your own brand.

The chose Squarespace for their website platform. Easy to create new products, manage orders and make simple changes, but powerful with in-built SEO and email functionality.

If your current website feels confusing, locked down, or intimidating, it might not be the right foundation for your next season of growth, so let’s chat!

Queensland’s Darling Downs has a brand new florist, just in time for Valentines Day!

Welcome to The Little Flower Shop, a boutique florist nestled in the heart of Allora, Queensland, created for people who love meaningful flowers, thoughtful gifting, and supporting local.

I had the privilege of creating this gorgeous little brand, taking inspiration from the flower stalls of Pairs, with a fresh modern twist.

Servicing an often forgotten area of the Darling Downs, is about connection. To people. To moments. To community. You’ll find a warm welcome, thoughtful service, and flowers made with heart every time you walk through the door or place an order online.

Because beautiful flowers shouldn’t be a luxury reserved for big cities. They belong in small towns too.

They’re still taking orders for Valentines Day, so check out their website (made by yours truly) or pop into their lovely store! 🌹

You don’t need to reinvent the wheel every time you create something for your business.

If every new post is a different trending Canva template, and you change your fonts like millennials changed their ringtones, listen up!

Creating from scratch every time you post, pitch or present isn’t just exhausting, it’s quietly eating your time and brain space.

Instead, invest in high-quality, on-brand templates. You’ll create faster, feel more confident, and build powerful brand recognition through consistency.

Because when your audience recognises your work before they even see your logo, that’s when trust kicks in… and trust is where the magic happens ✨

I’m not usually one for choosing a word of the year, but this year moved at the speed of a freight train and before I climb back on for 2026, I felt a strong pull to pause and set a few intentions for how I’d actually like the year to feel.
Spoiler: significantly less chaotic.

So when the lovely Jodi from invited me along to her very first Vision Board workshop, I didn’t hesitate.

From the moment you stepped into her beautiful space, everything felt considered and calm. A delicious cocktail on arrival, tables layered with magazines, papers and quotes, gentle guidance throughout and the most incredible canapés appearing at all the right moments. It was an evening of intention, connection and quiet reflection… the good kind that stays with you.

I can’t recommend these workshops enough. Whether you’re dreaming up a future home, mapping out your year ahead, or simply giving yourself permission to create, it’s a really special experience to do solo or alongside friends.

Go and give a follow. Jodi has January dates open, and if you’ve been craving a reset, this is a beautiful place to start.

And my word for next year?

Space.

For breathing.
For the things that light me up.
And for doing absolutely nothing at all.

Bird & Branch Design is officially signing off for the year.
Thank you for trusting me with your stories, ideas and brands in 2025. I’m so grateful for every project, conversation and collaboration this year.

I’ll be taking a short Christmas break and will be back from January 5th, recharged, inspired and ready to create! I hope everyone has a safe, restful and joyous holiday season.

This year, not only did I get to witness my favourite animal up close and personal in the wild, but I got to incorporate one into a brand as well! 😍

Together with the amazing Clare from I had the absolute pleasure of working with Annalise to rebrand, re-name (and reveal) The Educator’s Burrow.

Annalise’s business (formerly known as Teach with Annalise) began as a side hustle built around little people (and certain lockdowns of 2020). She came to us wanting to transition from her DIY, informal “cutesy” brand, to a more professional, cohesive identity that still felt warm, relatable, and approachable. She wanted the branding to reflect the expert support she offers Australian teachers — particularly in areas like curriculum design, inclusive education, and real-world maths — while still feeling personal - one teacher helping out another!

It was important to have a real Aussie feel, and as soon as Annalise mentioned the possibility of incorporating a wombat into the brand, I jumped at the chance of getting to design with my fav animal!

The result? A brand that was grounded, with nature-inspired charm — playful but not childish, nostalgic but fresh.

We developed a range of ‘sticker-style’ brand elements to tap into the beloved teacher trope of stickers and stationery - adding layers of personality and fun. This also nods to millennial nostalgia (hello gel pens and scratch ‘n’ sniff stickers) while naturally resonating with Gen Z educators who live in GIFs, emojis, and animations.

Enjoy the reveal of one of my favourite projects for 2025, and if you’re one of my teacher friends- head on over and check out

Every strong brand starts with a clear direction. And for me, that begins with moodboards.

It’s not just an excuse to scroll Pinterest (though I won’t lie - that’s a fun bonus), it’s because moodboards help shape the visual foundation of your brand.

They’re a vibe check. Where abstract ideas- the words you use to describe your business, the feelings you want your clients to have, the story behind what you do [everything we discover in our initial chats and questionnaires] form a visual compass - a way to check that you and I are on the same page and that the look and feel we’re building truly aligns with your brand’s personality and goals.

When we nail this step, the brand creation - the logos, colours and fonts - falls into place much faster!

It’s not just pretty pictures… it’s strategy in visual form.
