Rubie goes to Australia!

There's never been a better time for me to say "Wow, thank you Australia!" Ever since the launch of Rubie Green last spring, I have been absolutely blown away by the support I've received from Australian bloggers, editors, designers and design lovers. Today, I couldn't be more excited or flattered to announce that I've been asked to speak at the 2009 Decoration + Design show in Sydney! WOW! I've never been to Australia and am so excited to meet many of my new Australian friends in person, as well as the newest member of our team Marie Bowes who is now the exclusive RG distributor in New Zealand!

I also want to send a big thank you to Australia's Home Beautiful for including Rubie Green in their October issue! HB is sponsoring the Decoration + Design seminar series, so I'm looking forward to meeting (and thanking!) the editors in person.

Lastly I wanted to share with you some of my favorite images from a few of my RG customers in Australia! It's completely mind-boggling (in the best of ways!) to imagine that my fabrics have traveled to homes on the other side of the world! The first two photos below come all the way from Paddington, Brisbane from a home designed by Anna Spiro. Click here to see more :)

The next photo comes all the way from Carindale, Queensland from a home designed by Hayley and Tracey of Porchlight Interiors! I'm loving the faux bamboo chair :)

Next, a fun combo from Kimberlee of Adelaide, Australia, who writes one of the cutest blogs on earth called Brown Button!

Lastly, my jaw dropped when I spotted these gorgeous pics (also from Porchlight Interiors!) of the seaside at Cleveland Point, Brisbane! (Click here to see more!) Again, it's completely surreal to think how far RG has traveled, and incredibly flattering to have such loyal customers so far away :)

I also want to send a big thanks to Diane Bergeron, Amanda Harris, Sally Cutler, and Belinda Jamieson for all your support and dedication to Rubie Green :) Go Australia!!
