The very lovely team at Eckersley's, who helped us bring the most talented Catherine Campbell to Sydney Finders Keepers, have just announced a super new campaign. 'Celebrate Drawing' promises lots and lots of special offers to get your creative juices flowing. We reckon that big discounts on pencils, drawing pads, pens and lots more sounds like our cup of tea.

What better way to get excited about your weekend (counting down the hours!) than to feast your eyes on some lovely pics by people who want to share their weekend activities with us all. How's Your Weekend? is a blog dedicated to collecting snaps from people all over the world and what they get up to the weekend. Run by the lovely miss Laura, the blog is keen to get submissions from frankie readers, so you too can join in the fun of weekend bliss. Get snapping, oh and be sure to have a look at Laura's other blog, See Hear Say.

With names like The Porcupine Pin, Honeycomb and Berry Drop, how could we not love these little delights by Miki and Nora. Visit her Etsy store and have a gander at her handmade jewellery collection, it sort of reminds us of a day spent foraging in the woods. Nice nice nice.
