Overview

Being yourself is the name of the game, in the weird and wonderful Aussie bush. Explore the magic of curly individualism. Individuality is alive and well in the bush where no two seedpods are alike. Curliness and self-expression are magically explored through the variety to be found in nature. The ability to find our own curl is revealed as the key to growing up . . . Just be the nut you are!
