Silver Magazine + Giveaway

December 2, 2008 By Spoonful of Sugar - 151 Comments


I am very excited to announce the arrival of Western Australia’s newest lifestyle magazine – Silver. This bimonthly publication features the best of WA fashion, beauty, food, craft, and feature articles.

The first issue features 12 of my Christmas Craft projects and I will be a regular contributor each issue. The craft covers a range of projects – sewing, paper crafts, kitchen crafts, kids crafts. Most of the projects can be completed in under an hour. Here is a peak of some of the projects in the first issue.




For your chance to win a copy of Silver Magazine, an E. Funkhouser New York Bandana and Tattoo, plus some silver craft goodies, just leave a comment on this post. The prize will be drawn on December 12, and I am happy to ship worldwide.

I would also like to extend a warm welcome to any visitors from Simply This That and the Other.

    Hi – I have just discovered your lovely blog and the new magazine Silver. Do you know if that issue is still available in Perth newsagents? My parents are flying over to Perth (from South Aust.) on Wednesday and I would love for them to bring me back a copy.
    Look forward to reading more of your blog.
