in every issue

The basic format for the first issue of 'tickle the imagination' magazine is as follows: 

• letter from the editor
• contributors
• fashion
• home
• garden
• occasions
• babies & children
• lifestyle 
• studio visit - artists, crafters and designers lets us take a peek at their creative space and share their story
• show and tell - remember at school where you got to stand up in front of the class and tell them about your newest toy? ...yep, something like that!
• creative escapes - travel locations perfect for rejuvinating inspiring the creative soul!
• shop - shopping guide & product reviews
• explore - upcoming markets & exhibitions
• get involved - classes, networking and support groups
• blogs - our favourite creative, inspiring blogs
• expose yourself - competitions, collaborative projects, marketing opportunities, calls from media
• calendar of events
• creative block - contributors share their favourite ways to get inspired
• business toolbox
• directory

It is our preference that articles be a collaborative effort, so for example a cake decorator might team up with a photographer, dressmaker, writer and event stylist to put together a wedding story. We are very keen to have how-to's and tutorials to support the articles.

Advertising will be sprinkled throughout and of course we will also need products to review and feature in our shopping guide; artists, crafters and designers to feature in our show & tell and studio visit sections; travel locations to feature in the creative escapes; and information on upcoming classes, markets, exhibitions & groups.  And we'll also be on the lookout for giveaways and prizes!
