Double barred finch (blue)
The double-barred finch prefers scrublands and dry grassy woodlands. If you see one of these finches, there is water not far away as this tiny bird needs to drink frequently. They feed mostly on the ground, picking up fallen grass seeds. They will also jump to pull at the heads of grasses, shaking them to make the seeds fall.
Double-barred finches are extremely sociable birds, living in flocks of around forty birds. They build unlined domed roost nests in thickets. Several pairs will build in the same bush. They sometimes even sleep together with as many as six birds squeezing into a single nest. Males and females share the task of looking after the young who hatch from tiny eggs that are only a little over a centimetre long.
Product variants
glasses slip cases
Our glasses cases have a sturdy canvas outer printed with our own designs. They are lined inside and feature a padded layer to provide protection for your glasses cases while taking up much less room in your bag than a hard carry case.
They fit most glasses, being 10cm across and around 20cm tall.
They're durable and washable and customers report the fun bright prints make them easy to find in your bag.
Handmade with love
Every fabric used in our glasses cases is designed by Boo at Susurrus Studio in Darwin River, located an hour south of Darwin in the hot tropics of Australia. Boo draws much of her inspiration from her bush environment, especially the birds and flora of the Top End and across Australia.
The fabrics are printed with care in Sydney. When they arrive, Boo steps away from the design table and leans into the sewing machine to hand craft each item.
