Here is a quick snapshot of some of our new products. Just in the midst of sorting out costings and deep-etching the images. But they will be up by the end of the week – so keep your eyes peeled. More…

Our online store will be up and running in only a few weeks time! You will be able to buy our entire range of children’s wear, homewares, stationery and accessories. Made all carefully by hand using Liberty of London fabrics and other beautiful cottons. I’m very very excited and this weekend will be another weekend of sewing and designing. Stay tuned 
We’re in the process of taking photos of all of our products at the moment. After a few set backs of our digi camera dying and saving up for a new one, and finding time between sunlight and full time work, is drawing out the timeline. Our products include feather filled cushions, linen tea towels, linen napkins with embroidered borders, children’s tradtional bloomers, little girls summer pin-tuck dresses, baby muslin wraps with verying bias binding, baby singlets with embroidery, old-fashioned money purses, and more. So sit tight!

These gorgeous woodblocks, I picked up recently in Paris. I discover this most gorgeous little shop, by accident, that sold all of these antique ‘odds and ends’. I also picked up a pair of wooden shoe moulds. The antique champagne glass, from one of my many finds in a garage sale (i have a little thing for all things glass and vintage!). The two tall jars were sent as a promotional gift to georgie with oysters in them – very luxe!
Just some old vintage books we had lying around with this lovely branch Georgie had collected.
These are old New York tram signs which I’ve had framed. It sits at our entrance and I just love the typography, even though I dislike justified text, its the simplicity of the design which has lasted all this time.
Please excuse the photography, my camera is on the blink and so the old digi camera has made an appearance! Stay tuned our product range of homewares and children’s clothes using our eccletic mix of fabrics and Liberty of London fabrics.

elki design has been our little creative child for some years, and its been in the past 6 months that we’ve brought our little baby out into the world. So let me introduce ourselves: emma and georgina kaveney. I (em) is a qualified graphic designer and have been working in an inner-city design studio for the past three years, whilst dabbling in my passion of interiours and painting outside of work. My sister, Georgina, is outragiously talented in all things creative. Having studied fashion design, cheffing and now working as a food stylist for one of Australia’s largest food magazines.
Our passions are very similar and we’re able to bounce of each other, which is the basis for any great professional relationship. Our love for old treasures (furniture, fabrics, books, jewellery, silver) and vintage shops – as well as introducing modern twists here and there.
elki is a business where we can create childrens clothes and homewares from beautiful fabric with refined dressmaking skills. Mum use to make all our dresses when we were smaller with the beautiful Liberty of London fabric. Probably most people have come across it, and yes it was a little ‘abused’ in the 80’s. But we using Liberty fabric in modern ways to ‘mix it up’ and avoid the ‘head to toe look’ of Liberty!
We have our website up and running at the moment, and will be uploading some photos of our products up soon. We hope you enjoy our little blog and more importantly provide you with a little pleasure and inspiration
