Interesting sites

I love trawling the internet, following links, and just getting lost in the web of interesting pages. Here's some that I stumbled across and thought I'd share!
Crafty/ Designer Links

PoppyTalk
http://poppytalk.blogspot.com/ - a fascinating blog of what it describes as the 'beautiful, the decayed, and the handmade'. There are tutorials, interviews with designers, features of wonderfully unique art... just an Aladdin's cave of wonders!

French General - just an amazing collection of jewellery kits, textiles, paper crafts, furnishings... I think I want to buy a few things from here... have to look and see if they ship to Australia (without costing the earth!) If you get the chance have a listen to her talk via the Radio & Video section, see how she turned a dream, a passion for jewellery bits into a business. (The photos come from the site which is just beautiful - this just gives you an idea of some of the things that are there!)






http://www.anthropologie.com - a collection of old world combinations of funky colours, stripes, flowers, chic - just interesting to look at






Computer Arts Links - tutorials



http://www.computerarts.co.uk

I used to buy this magazine when I was first starting out in computer graphics. They keep a mass of tutorials archived, and are always pushing the boundaries of digital art in all its interesting forms.
