“My shop started when my daughter was born,” explained Bream in an interview with the Etsy blog. “I had a desire to rid her room of anything that wasn’t natural (any polyester, plastic, etc.). I was looking for something beautiful in its simplicity and innocence, and I wanted to accentuate that with colorful accessories.”

With that in mind, the Colette Bream brand was born. According to Bream, inspiration comes easy. Her toys and knitwear often have a nostalgic nod to her own childhood, and the natural world also provides her with endless sources of inspiration. “I was always a dreamer as a child and even now children’s aesthetics are very enticing to me as an adult,” she notes.

Naturally, her daughter also plays a role in her brand. “Time goes by so fast and I consider myself lucky to be able to be home every day and watch her grow,” she says. “I cherish taking our daily walks together and seeing the world through her eyes.”

“I like my work to engage a wide audience, so there are elements that appeal to young children and also an older generation,” she added in an interview with AG Gallery. “My main objective when creating new work for exhibition is to incite feelings of comfort, joy and nostalgia – when I make a piece that encapsulates all of these elements, I am satisfied with the work!”

Working with no template or prior pattern, each of her pieces is one of a kind, making it all the more unique in an age of mass production. “I like to devise new characters all the time!” says the Melbourne-based artist. “I get an idea in my head or sketch something out and am not satisfied until I work it up into a 3D character.”

A creative at heart, Rabbit experiments with other mediums as well. Aside from her soft sculptures, she has also published children’s books and has collaborated with her good pal and artist, Isobel Knowles, under the name Soft Stories.

Here are some highlights from her Instagram page:
