Hi everyone, thought I would show you what I have been up to lately.Been busy creating for the shop .

My hubby painted these chairs and I recovered them.

This one I did in pink and white candy stripes.

This one(which has since sold) is lovely duck egg blue/green with roses.Pretty!!

I have also been busy making White Chocolate and Macadamia cookies for the shop.YUM!!!

As well as all that I have been having fun making these pretty hanging hearts.I popped some lavender inside them.

Well that's all my news for now.Have a great weekend.

As promised here are some pic's of one of my best buddies home.

This is her bedroom and the photo's dont do it justice at all, but is'nt it just gorgeous!!! So romantic and inviting.

Pretty corner filled with beautiful goodies.The corner shelf was timber and her hubby painted it white.Looks great.

The other pretty corner.Could you see yourself relaxing with a cuppa???

Lovely dressing table and powder chair, perfect under the window.

Close up

Tall boy adorned with more gorgeous goodies.

The ensuite filled with clean fluffy towels ,sweet smelling soaps and powders.

This is the plate rack her Dad made for her.It's in the family room.Will do a post on that room next.But maybe I should'nt show you too much as I think we may(?) have convinced her to start her own blog .

Thank you Heidi for allowing me to show parts of your beautiful home, and thanks for being such a wonderful caring friend.Love ya x

P.S I think I am up to my 96th post so will have to have a giveaway to celebrate.Better get my thinking cap on?!

A few new goodies this week ....but waiting for this weekend when the Sydney Gift Fair is on to get some more exciting and new things.

So for now I will show you what I have been up to.

I got this dressing table last week from the tip shop.Was going to change the handles but am going to leave it for a change.I love the legs on it.

Front window at the moment

New dangly...blingy.....light fitting...pretty!

Pair of pink birdies cuddled up...so sweet!!

And a sneak peak at one of my best buddies house(with her permission of course)It is absolutely divine and I will do a complete post on it next time.

But for now a little look at her bedroom.Click to enlarge if you need.

See you soon xx

Lovely surprise!

It is with a little tear of happiness I write this blog today.You know one of those days when you feel like there is'nt enough of you to go around,and you wish you had more time to stop and smell the roses?......that was how I was feeling today .......until this beautiful bunch of flowers arrived at the shop!

"Who could this be from?" I thought.

It's not Valentines Day yet..........and my hubby and I usually just give each other a card...so who could it be?

Who would be sending me such a gorgeous bunch of flowers?

I could'nt open the envelope quick enough to see who it could be and this is what it revealed in the card........

" A garden without lady bugs would be like life without friends"

They are from my beautiful friend Helen......and she knows I love pink flowers ........it just made my day.(sniff...sniff)

I had to contain myself not to cry when I rang her to thank her.

Sometimes in life a special friend comes into your life and they are so rare and precious.....you feel blessed to be her friend....so Helen if your read this thank you again, I'm blessed to have you and you'll always be one of my special friends.XX

Wow another high tea has come and gone.Heres some pics of one of the tables.Looking forward to next months one when we will celebrate the shops 2nd birthday.I think something special will be in order for that one.

Hello again

A while back I was given a bag of doilies and have been wondering what I could do with them .

This is what I came up with and they are so easy to make.Click to enlarge

Some lovely heart shaped soaps.They look sweet in this jar.

Some new birdie houses.Bit of a rustic look for a change

A new tiny clock came in last week.The verse says"Home is where your story begins"

These I have had for a while, but they are such a great idea.I gave my daughter one when she was doing swimming lessons.They are plastic lined so it keeps all your other items dry.

Well that's all my news for now....catch up next time!
