Yay, a blog post that isn’t about babies! We moved into our home over 3 years ago, but it’s taken me this long to actually hang some pictures on the walls. Why? Because I have commitment issues. I love collecting prints and photos, but the thought of trying to decide on where to hang everything,…
Loving… a DIY Vertical Garden {Courtyard make-over part 2}
I wrote about the start of our our courtyard make-over a little while ago – since then I’ve been looking for a way to incorporate more greenery into this space. That was easier said than done, particularly since our courtyard is very hot and dry, and Cape Town is in the midst of one of…
Loving…Make Spring Better {Prominent Paints part 1}
Does anyone else really struggle with making bold design choices? I’ve wanted to paint a feature wall in our living area for ages, but I’ve really battled with committing to a plan! Which is silly, considering that we could realistically paint over any disasters. So, when Prominent Paints contacted me a little while ago about…
Loving… Stowe & So {gorgeous gifts}
I love finding local online stores that have original and reasonable items. I came across Stowe & So towards the end of last year, and I immediately added some of their items to my Christmas wishlist! I love my little piggy cereal bowl, and my “deskpet” calendar brightens up my desk at work. I also…
Loving… a courtyard make-over {fun with Prominent Paints}
Before I get started on our courtyard make-over, I hope you’ve noticed that the blog has had a bit of a make-over too? I’m so sorry to those of you who got 7 random emails in your inbox – some technical gremlins crept in during the make-over process! When we moved into our house 2…
Loving…an update
Hellooo? Anybody out there? Goodness, it’s been a while since I’ve logged on here (actually, just over a year). This little blog has been on my mind recently, and I’ve been toying with the idea of returning. I’m still not sure if this will become a regular thing, but I do have some ideas lined…
Loving…Cape Homemakers Expo {Win tickets}
As a new homeowner, I have a new-found appreciation for events like the Homemakers Expo. It can be so overwhelming to find appropriate service providers and stockists, and there are only so many hours in a weekend that can be spent trailing around shops to find the perfect bathroom tile! The Homemakers Expo is literally…
Loving…A new home {hello again}
Hello again to my poor little neglected blog! I can’t believe that it’s been so long since my last post, but the last few weeks have really flown by. The main reason for my recent absence is our new home! We moved in at the end of April, so our lives have been a flurry…
