OK Santa, here it is: the lil’ tab I’ve been keeping of things I’d love to nab. First up, I’m digging these cute Urban Composter bins. Bags the berry one. I love wood and I love chunky. (Miserably) Mark Tuckey is not in this year’s budget so I ask only for one of these stunning oak…
Hi Santa, it’s Jaye here… remember me? I’m the one that got a little over zealous last festive season, singing ‘Santa Baby’ in my very best, sexy Madonna voice (not very sexy) to anyone who’d listen after one too many on Christmas Day. How could you forget! Well, I can promise you I’ve made up for…
It’s festival season again and one of our favourites, Peats Ridge, is kicking-off on December 29 in the beautiful Glenworth Valley. It’s not your usual festival – Peats Ridge is three days of arts, workshops and, of course, live music – all with a sustainable twist. Tickets are available online or, if you want to…
Well, Santa – it’s been a while. You know I’ve never really bought into this whole ‘Christmas’ thing and all the crazy over-consumption that goes along with it. So normally I’d sit on your knee all high-and-mighty-like and ask for nothing at all (well perhaps a donation to the East Africa famine), but since this…
I think I’ve been pretty good this year, and I just want to make it clear to you and your eleven sidekicks that it’s all about making me feel super-duper this season. I am totes in love with AROMANTIKS Strangers In Blood artisan perfume and a top-up of my favorite lippy by Jasmin Organics in Violet Veil would be most…
It’s getting hot! Although I’m sure you’re well aware of this thanks to your annual yuletide commitment. I imagine by the time you reach the Federated States of Micronesia you have stripped down to a modest singlet and shorts ready for your Down Under drop-off. With that in mind, I’ve opted for a more practical…
There is always someone who is impossible to buy for. Oxfam Unwrapped has one solution – buy them a pile of poo. Or maybe a buffalo, some fruit trees, a canoe or even a rice bank; there is something for every price range, and the best part is: your donation goes to those in need,…
There are plenty of summertime trends we here at Peppermint love to get behind, but sweaty and flustered is not one of them! We think summer’s must-have frock (and the solution to your perspiration problems!) is this lovely halter neck number from Eco Peko. The limited edition organic cotton dress is dyed with natural plant…
Summer is my favourite time of year: hot weather, holidays, and lots of catch-ups with friends and family. This year I’m fortunate enough to live in a house with a nice big deck so my Christmas wishlist pretty much revolves around sprucing up my deck and making it a lovely outdoor space to live in…
I’m sorry, but these are just too sweet not to share. Handmade by SquinkStudio in Sydney, this range of jumbo teacup candles are created from a natural (and naturally-scented) soy wax that, when melted, can be used as a massage oil or moisturiser! Delish. And, even better, once the candle has burned out you can…
This year’s been a big one for me: I’ve finished uni, started my first job and I’ve moved out of home. Yep, I’ve turned into a responsible adult, so I think some sensible presents to help me prepare for the new year might be apt. I’d like to eat more healthy foods, and I think this…
Ladies of Brisbane! If you’ve been dutifully reading your Peppermints, then you’d probably be quite excited to know that we’ve found a place where you can see some of our latest featured fashion talents – Erin Lightfoot, Mais Oui Vintage, Ra Ra Superstar and more – all under one roof. It’s the Cheap Frills Christmas…
We look forward to connecting with you.
