A love of typography was the starting point for this business. Founder Tracy Strange loved the bold and iconic graphics of old tram banners and bus destination scrolls. Taking it one step closer to home Tracy launched a personalised service to create meaningful, contemporary art works which looked fabulous and did not cost the earth.

Customisations have been as simple as banners listing favourite travel destinations right through to banners listing marriage dates, childrens names and special places for a family. They have proven to be a terrific gift for husbands and fathers, weddings and special milestone birthdays.

Tracy's work was featured in the October 2009 edition of Home Beautiful.

Tram Banners will be at the Magnolia Square Christmas Event at the Malvern Town Hall 26, 27, 28 November - check www.magnoliasquare.com.au for location and trading times.

ordinary to extraordinary.....

Tea and biscuits, fresh flowers and other fancifal objects are transformed into little pieces of wearable art by the very talented Victoria Mason. Described by the artist as a 'celebration of simple every day items' the collection is handmade from scratch using sterling silver and traditional jewellery techniques.

You will find necklaces that will remind you of summer holidays, a long forgotten love for Derwents, and earrings and rings reminiscent of high teas shared with Nana.

These pieces are not only beautiful keepsakes; they are contemporary talismans to remind us that it’s often the simplest things, which give us the greatest pleasure.

View new designs in time for Christmas such as the portable-vase necklace, 'Say it with Flowers', the delightful 'Sandwich' range & 'Morning Tea' ring set at Magnolia Square Malvern.
