if you love monsters
and drawings of other weird yet somewhat wonderful characters
with a smatterings of rants about ants in pants with cherries on top
and bananas with pyjamas on the bottom

About
Watermelonee is the personal website of Melanie Manuel – that's me, or more lovingly known as Melonee around these parts. I'm a designer of sorts based in sunny Brisbane, Australia.
My education and experience lies in the fields of advertising & graphic design. That, along with my vivid imagination has enabled me to explore and create art & illustration for fun and yes … for profit.
I work best using a combination of Illustrator & Photoshop backed with a good strong soy latte. My machine of choice is a Mac but I do ❤ my fairly worn PC. On other occasions I paint and draw with pencils.
5 EARTH SHATTERING facts about Mel
✪ she is an incurable TV addict
✪ has an on-going battle with conventional beliefs
✪ is a closet cook … for a perfect French omelette it’s all in the technique!
✪ is full of surprises … e.g. disliked eggplant as a child but now enjoys its soft mushy texture
✪ is an ardent fan of the ellipses …
Now that you know me better, feel free to drop me a line. I’d love to hear from you!

Winter prep. Jumper with built in headphones. I’m going to like this invention. And yes it’s machine washable too (Taken with instagram)
Three Guilty Pleasure Blogs About Crafts (in a way):
- Regretsy (or why I check Alibaba before I buy on Etsy or Ebay). Scorchingly cynically foul mouthed funny from the real Etsy/Ebay/Craig’s List postings to the readers’ comments.
- Craftfail: Where Crafters Go to Fail. See the above Zombie Nails photo from Craftfail here, or go to It Feels Like the First Time… here for the full story.
- My Favorite Hate Mail: Where Mean Comments Go To DIE. A website where people respond to mean comments the way they wish/want to… not the way they could on their websites.

Charles Lushear of The Bohemian Workbench made this incredibly awesome Nintendo Controller Coffee Table. It’s made from maple, mahogany and walnut with dovetail joinery and mid century modern legs.
Now, after you’ve finish freaking out about how nice it works, consider the fact that it doesn’t just look good. It’s also completely functional! That’s right. If you remove the glass top, you can use it to play video games. So freaking awesome!
