About Sheree and Dot & Co.
About – The Studio-Heart of Sheree and Dot & Co
Around here, we blend sass with sentiment, snags with stories, and a touch of eucalyptus with unapologetic charm. But beneath all this sparkle is a creator with a camera over her shoulder, a paintbrush in one hand, a pixel palette in the other, and a head full of ideas too fabulous to stay hidden.
You’ve landed in the studio-heart of Sheree Sweeney: photographer, storyteller, traditional artist, and digital dream-weaver. Her work doesn’t sit still—it sings, remembers, grins, and sometimes smells like nostalgia. So before you dive into the visuals and pick up a print or three, let’s take a stroll through the heart of Dot & Co and meet the muse behind the magic.
About Dot & Co
From bush tracks to beach shade—this is a world stitched with kindness, sponge cake, and a clipboard.
Dot & Co. is the creative universe of Sheree Sweeney, a Hervey Bay–based visual storyteller with a knack for spotting everyday magic and turning fleeting moments into lasting treasures.
What began with bark notes and backyard rituals has grown into a full-hearted emporium celebrating slow living, nostalgic charm, and the gentle humour that comes from truly paying attention.
From photographs and art prints to kaftan kits, custom designs, and kindly worded labels, every piece carries a thread of Sheree’s storytelling. She draws from bush childhoods, beach breezes, and stringybark wisdom—always with reverence for character, craftsmanship, and the crumbs left behind.
Whether it’s a photo captured in soft afternoon light, a diffuser blend named after Nan, or a Kev quote screen-printed on cotton—Dot & Co invites you into a space that feels familiar, even if you’ve never stepped inside before.
What We Believe In
- Kindness, colour, and crumbed shirts
- Tea before to-do lists
- Homemade over hurried
- Storytelling that doubles back, pauses, and leaves the last line unspoken
With folded towels, full hearts, and the kettle forever on—
Sheree Sweeney

✦ A Peek Into the Dot & Co Dreamscape ✦
Where cake crumbs lead the way, kaftans catch the breeze, and towel trims tell stories.
Kev hammered the bench into shape.
Dot scribbled the checklist in lipstick and love.
The kettle’s on, the cordial’s chilling, and a pastel-painted Esky hums softly under a pepper tree.
This world? It’s stitched with characters, cheek, and coastal charm.
✿ Dot & Co’s Speckled Ensemble:
Dot – Detail diva, clipboard queen, and the founding wink behind the collective.

This dreamscape is layered with linen wisdom, retro humour, native elegance, and unapologetic personality. From sponge to spritz, from tea towel to tote—Dot & Co is no ordinary brand.
It’s a collective of charisma.
A celebration of character.
A parade of speckles and sentiment, stitched into every story.
Stories? Got ’em.
Bad dad jokes? More than necessary.
Recipes and rogue wisdom? Piped in from every angle.
This is Sheree’s happy place—where imagination meets invitation, and every character has crumbs on their shirt and kindness in their pocket.
💌 A Softly Spoken Letter from Dot…
Dear you,
If you’ve found your way here—welcome. Truly.
Dot & Co. was never meant to shout.
It began with sponge tins in the cupboard, a reliable clipboard, and curiosity that lingers at garage sales, op shops, and handwritten recipe books with fold marks and flour smudges.
We believe in things made slowly and kept tenderly.
In crumbs as proof of good company. In stories stitched into seams, perfume caught in towel hems, and laughter that sounds exactly like home.
Here, you’ll find hand-touched treasures made with care:
– Kaftans stitched with breeze and brunch in mind
– Prints that frame a feeling and a memory
– Towels with personality, tags that speak, and blends that hum in the hallway
It’s not about perfection. It’s about presence.
About catching something beautiful before the kettle boils—or noticing the joy tucked into a cardigan pocket.
And now, we’re surrounded by Maggies with opinions, hostesses who narrate brunch, and apron queens who dry cake tins in coral gloss.
From Bev’s lemon-scented sponge to Belinda’s Blundstone sparkle—Dot & Co is no longer just one clipboard, but a whole speckled collective.
Whether you're just passing through or plan to linger with linen and playlist—thank you for being here. The bench is warm, the Esky’s humming, and someone’s folding a hang towel with love.
Warmly,
Dot
on behalf of the sand-dusted, gingham-glamorous, playlist-playing Collective crew
