Di’s Inspired

Di Henshall inspires the launch crowd.

In days of old when this writer was in charge of Noosa’s first lifestyle magazine, we celebrated the release of each bi-monthly issue with a huge party at our river shack office.

It was a great tradition, and won us a lot of friends. (Luckily we had a contra back page ad deal with Eumundi Lager for endless quantities of giggle juice.) One of the regulars at those parties was a young interior designer named Di Henshall, who is now reviving the tradition with a launch party for every edition of her travel and lifestyle magazine, now called Di Henshall’s Inspired.

To be fair, it’s only her second edition, but she won’t stop now. She’s even put the old team back together, with fellow partygoer and Noosa Blue designer Sean Parer of Parer and Co on board. And they’re doing a cracking job with Inspired, a combination of interior design, exotic travel and, well, all things Di.

Tout-Noosa was gathered at the Waterfront for a splendid spread and plenty of laughs. – PJ
