My Local Like
Chocola, on Apirana Avenue in Glen Innes in the area by Fruit World and the Dove Hospice Shop. Amazing fresh Mexican food as well as artisan chocolates and I understand you can also have events/learn about cacao/make chocolates too. Wandered in with my son, and left having had a great lunch, an addiction to Mexican drinking chocolate, a supply of healthy fresh juice and huge smiles. Bring the glass bottles back for reuse. Informal seating and personalized friendly service from Jose and Maria (remember Mexican Specialites on Maura Road Ellerslie? This is them!). If you are one of those people where chocolate milk is life-and-death then you owe it to yourself to go! Not sure of hours/phone details.
We've missed you, Chocola!
Original Art on Baseball Caps / Hats
Hello everyone,
I am presenting a limited release of hand-painted artwork on Baseball Caps. There will only be 29 caps in this range. For now, please do have a look at the first seven Caps attached. I will post more in the future as I work on them.
Price per piece = $55.00.
Fabric look/feel is suede-like (not real suede). It is a really nice quality cap. You can zoom out each photo to view better.
Adjustable backstrap with metal clasp.
NOTE: Some Caps have more than one photo to give you views from different sides (I can send you more photos if required).
Mother's Day is just two weeks away. This would make a really memorable yet practical gift for that special person. OR...get it for yourself! Just know that when you are wearing it to brunch, on your walks or at tennis/golf, YOU are the only person in the world with this original piece of wearable art ☺️.
Pickup in Remuera or happy to courier:
P&p $16.00 (with signature)
Rural addresses +$5.50.
If you want it sent overseas, I am happy to quote.
For the remaining Caps that I will be painting, if you have any suggestions that you would like to see, or if you would like to order a cap with a particular bird/flower et , I am happy to consider. No portraits please! That would be too hard on fabric 😅.
Have a lovely weekend,
Connie.
PS. I apologise for the low photo resolution as I had to resize them down to be able to post.
