Inner West Local
Inner West Wattle Project
A Simple Idea with a Big Heart
The Wattle Project connects the homes, cafés, and community spaces that make our neighbourhood beautiful. One small stencil at a time — each marking a story of pride and belonging.
Where It All Began
It started with a single wattle sighting — bright, unexpected, and full of warmth.
From there grew an idea: what if every home and shop that made the Inner West special had its own quiet mark of recognition?
No logos. No advertising. Just a symbol of belonging — connecting neighbours, cafés, and creatives through small acts of community pride.
Locals can add a wattle to their home — a simple way to show they’re part of something beautiful.
Cafés, studios, and shops join the trail to celebrate their place in the neighbourhood.
Agents can gift a wattle to new homeowners — a welcome into the Inner West family.
Why the Wattle?
The wattle has always symbolised resilience and renewal — it blooms after fire, bright and unshaken.
In the Inner West, it’s our way of celebrating growth, connection, and the spirit of local life.
Be Part of the Inner West Wattle Project
The first wattles will bloom across Annandale this summer — and your place could be one of them.
