April 21, 2017

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…Summer with Poetry {delightful dresses}

February 16, 2015

I’d like to think that we still have another month or two left of Summer, and recently I’ve been eyeing these beautiful dresses from Poetry.  They’re available in a range of feminine styles, with exquisite details. Even as the weather cools down, these will team up perfectly with boots and a cardigan or jacket.  The pictures don’t…

Loving…DIY candles

December 21, 2014

At this time of year we’re always plagued by many mosquitoes and bugs, particularly in the evening (much to the cats’ delight).  In an effort to relieve us from the constant buzzing, I decided to turn some old candles into citronella candles in jars.  Citronella isn’t for everyone, but I’ve grown quite fond of the smell.…

Loving…Lipstick & Cocktails {review & giveaway}

March 24, 2014

I don’t usually blog about beauty products, but I thought I’d share some of my favourite lipstick/stains from the last few months.  I don’t really like to wear lipstick, mainly because I don’t like the feel of it, but I’ve become more aware of the effect that it can have on my appearance when I…

Loving…Urban Pastels from @Home

September 5, 2013

Wow, I love pretty much everything in the @Home Spring 2013 collection.  The Urban Pastels collection is packed full of ice-cream colours, along with feminine patterns and textures.  I definitely have my eye on the pastel filing drawers (be still my little OCD heart) and the vintage kitchen scale and mixing bowl. All items are…

Oh my goodness, it’s been a long time since my last post!  I’ve been missing it so much, but unfortunately things have just got really busy (typical for the end of the year).  I’m glad to say that I have a couple of sneaky treats up my sleeve, so keep an eye out! In the…
