Finding a reason to volunteer that isn't just 'feeling good'
Are you looking for your 'why' to start volunteering that isn't just 'it make you feel good'? We have a few reasons that might take your fancy. We chatted to Hair Aid about some of the great reasons to volunteer overseas.
CAMP HILL ANTIQUE CENTRE & TART CAFÉ
The total refit of the former 1950’s Planet Cinema in Camp Hill was an epic undertaking a few years ago but the results are stunning. The old cinema was saved from the developers axe and Brisbane has Camp Hill Antique Centre & Tart Café, a swish Antique and Vintage mecca to drool over. It's all here, sixty-five dealers of everything from antique and estate jewelry to mid-century furniture classics and collectibles with pieces sourced from Europe, The States, South East Asia and from every nook and cranny of Australia.
Get set to stun this Race Day
Time to get all gussied up, from fascinators to lashes and everything in between. This year's best Melbourne Cup fashions, accessories, and beauty treatments are in, and they're sure to be showstoppers. Get ready to look fabulous!
Turned-around treasure at Camp Hill Antique Centre
Reduce, reuse, recycle: we’ve all heard it before. Sure, most of us are reusing wine bottles for vases and making sure our plastics go in the right bin, but whose taking care of the big stuff? Or the weird stuff? Or all those things in between? Who’s taking care of the trash to treasure, up cycling kind of work?
If you like it...put some bling on it!
We all know local is lovely: but some things are harder to find than others when you’re trying to support local. There seems to be no shortage of food and drink around Brisbane, but what about accessories? That’s right baby, today we’re talking jewellery. Bling. Diamonds. So, if you’re looking for some sparkle, a statement piece, or maybe that very special ring, consider these designers when it comes to your gem hunt. Lets dive right in!

Stuck on gifts? We have you covered.
It’s time to start decorating Christmas trees in twinkle lights and watch ‘’Love Actually’ and 'Home Alone’ because Christmas is around the corner and Santa Claus is coming to town! #hohoho
When it comes to buying gifts for your family and friends, it can be hard to think of the best way to show them how much you love them in present form – so, whether you’ve been naughty or nice, here is your ultimate Christmas Gift Guide!
Who's Your Daddy?
Father’s Day is coming up this year and we all know that dads can be hard to please. Or maybe they just don’t really care. It wouldn’t be surprising after getting a bucket load of socks and ties as gifts, maybe they gave up on an exciting Fathers Day long ago.
If there's nothing else that will do the job why not make sure that your dad’s stomach and mind are satisfied on his very own special day, even better give him an experience that he won’t forget.
Soak it up
Everywhere you go, this city is bursting with talent. There's the local musos, chefs, artists and designers of every kind, you've got emergency service personal, builders, hairdressers, writers, barista's (low-key lifesavers) and the list goes on and on. We have an appreciation for those who do, what we can't. This week's Word On The Street is full of flavour & life. From enjoying tasty new bites created by hardworking chefs to being completely in awe of some of the city's most talented performers. Take the time to really enjoy the present, those feelings of satisfaction won't stick around for long so relish in the moment (no matter how big or small)!
