Super Stationery!

February 4th, 2011 by Anthea | 4 Comments | Filed in Art, craft and Design

Ooooh! Here at GP, we adore Stationery and Sydney! That’s why we’re loving this model of Sydney city made entirely out of stationery!

A model of Sydney city made by Darcy Prendergast out of Staples stationery!

It was made by Aussie artist Darcy Prendergast and it took him over 190 hours to build! He used rulers and bulldog clips for the Harbour Bridge, Post-it notes for the water, and coloured pencils and postage boxes for the Opera House!

Wanna see how it was built? Check out this clip to see the artist @ work!

Darcy made this model to celebrate the arrival of stationery superstore Staples on Aussie shores! The staples team have opened an online store: www.staples.com.au… and it’s stocked with some seriously sweet stationery buys!

We hope Darcy’s effort inspires you to get creative this weekend!

As many of you probably already know, I own an Etsy shop! This is where I sell all of my handmade creations – polymer clay jewellery, stationery and printable artwork. My polymer clay jewellery include adorable cupcake, lollipop, cakes and other food charms! My latest addition has been a cupcake charm bracelet and mermaid earrings. Aren’t they cute?
