Deadlines for Publications

Deadlines for Handmade Canberra publications must be strictly adhered to.

Due to the monumental task of compiling these amazing books and the fact that there are only a handful of us, any late applications, feature submissions or payments will automatically lose their placing and will have to rejoin the queue.

Any late arrivals will NOT be chased by us, and your place will automatically be offered to the next designer in the queue. We apologise in advance for this, but we take pride in offering plenty of time for designers to apply, submit and pay.

Please do NOT apply for our publications if you cannot apply, submit or pay on time.

Deadlines for A Handmade Christmas will be posted mid-January.

Book is Almost Full!

Dear Designers,

What an exciting time it is for the handmade living team - we are busily compiling your design ideas into our pages and it's going to be amazing!

Since offering two new packages, we've been inundated and the book is almost full. From early next week, we are going to have to unofficially close any extra applications, as we need to get started on book production, and in order to do this, we need all pages cemented in.

If you are still interested in submitting something, you will really need to get it to us asap. You are welcome to send in your application next week, but please be aware it's very unlikely it will be accepted from Monday onwards.

Great work, everyone! We can't wait to show you this book!

Julie, Tania and Tina

The Calendar is still Open until 26 June

The calendar applications will remain open Tuesday 26 June but hurry - places are limited and filling fast.

If you have missed out on the book or don't have the time or wherewithall to take part in the book, please consider the calendar... Tina Snerling is taking care of this and she will do a STUNNING job of your work - you get an entire month! Check out the Calendar info here for more, and be in touch with Tina if you have any queries.

Thank you to everyone for your stunning applications! We will be in touch with you all by Friday 14 May. Good luck!

the handmade living team.

If you can't open any mail links directly, see CONTACT in the left hand column for an email address.

Less than One Week til Application Deadline!

I've just spent the day away from my computer for the first time in weeks and I think my back has actually loosened and I can now see again!

I've come home to a barrage of requests for Designer Info Packs - how exciting. The handmade living. team is so excited to see applications already rolling and I think we'll be rather busy next week!

You can still request Designer Info Packs right up until next Friday 7 May. You have until midnight on 7 May to get your application in.

REMEMBER - THIS DEADLINE IS FOR APPLICATIONS ONLY, NOT FOR YOUR PROJECT SUBMISSION~! YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO WORK ON YOUR PROJECT BUT MAKE SURE YOU GET THAT APPLICATION IN! We will be working at a rapid pace on approving applications and on the book's content from 8 May, so all applications must be in on time.

One more reminder - please remember that if you are applying for a Single Page, Double Page or 3-Ways/5-Ways feature, you must provide a HOW-TO, PROJECT or INSPIRATION - not just a product write-up. If you are still confused by this, please contact us.

Lastly, be sure to check out the Shop Handmade blog - I've taken some great shop photos and will post about them soon.

Happy designing, everyone!

Tania
