Woman's Day Magazine - Aug 2019
Shortly after I launched Ivy Trove I was asked to create a 2 page article on 'Make your own Macrame Hanger'. Whuuutt?? This was well before my DIY kit days and gosh how different it would be now if I got the chance. Such an incredible experience so early on!

NAIDOC Festival UQ University - Aug 2019
I was invited by the Diversity and Inclusion department to host the Yarn and Yarn activation. We created 2 huge pieces where anyone attending the festival could come and add a few knots to the installations. I then took both unfinished pieces home and improvised the completion of the wall hangings based on what had already been knotted. An epic challenge to say the least and they proudly hang in the Diversity and Inclusion department at Brisbane UQ!

Brisbane Botanica Festival - Oct 2021
I got invited to host an incredible collaborative art project alongside Georgia Hillas, the creative spark behind the idea 'Aim Higher'! It was originally in 2020 but sadly c-vid restrictions cancelled it. Georgia tirelessly strung up each Netball hoop in different colours then I taught 23 woman how to create the knots then it was choose your own adventure from there as I guided everyone through their sections.
The results were unbelievable! Once the unique creations were completed they were dipped in neon paint for the 'wow factor' at nightand hung at all different heights on the Circle of Tall Palms. This fun and interactive project was an amazing success which allowed people to shoot hoops at all different levels as well as admire the stunning handmade pieces hanging up in their glory! There's a peak on the Brisbane City Youtube channel too!
