Australiana has done it rough over the years. Historically speaking, this compelling area of gifting is strictly the domain of Vic market stalls and Swanston Street souvenier tables. Not that there's anything wrong with that. We love an acrylic koala as much
as the next tourist.
Urban dictionary defines Aussie as 'A cobber from the awesome race we call Australians. He or she is likely
to excel in all kinds of sports, drinking beer, talking the ear of a
grasshopper or just being a plain old funny prick'.
Not much to live up to.
But on this weekend, when Melbournians feel more Aussie than usual (c'mon, you're not going to a bbq tomorrow?) we thought we might bring you some delightfully patriotic products from Melbourne based designers Make Me Iconic.
