I think I would literally wet my pants if I were to come across masses of flowers like this. We are so sheltered here in Australia. Don't get me wrong, I love this great country of ours, but we seriously lack:
Cool furniture from Craigslist. MFAMB finds the best stuff.
grass is always greener over the pond. Me I can get flowers like that everywhere and the bulbs are no problem but I would love some us stores over here too or at least make shipping to the Netherlands easier and cheaper ....
Big bunches of masses of the same flower are so effective. Like a vase of loads of daffodils for Spring as a table centrepiece. These tulips are stunning in their multitude. Have a nice weekend. x
New buisness for you Sharnel ? You can go to the states every couple of months & take all the orders from us to shop at Pottery Barn & Williams Sonoma !
I wish we had Michaels Craft Store her in Aust. Trust me though, I live in Perth where we have even less choice of everything here...On a brighter note, at least Anthro are now shipping to Australia!!! And oh how I wish we had Pottery Barn...
I share your frustration here in the UK for single coloured M&M's. We also lack Williams Sonoma & Pottery barn ! We do however now have an Anthropologie! Have a sweet day!
- those massive round (and i mean round, not our round balloons that are called round but are oval!) balloons they have for parties in the US - stripy vintage paper straws - converse website so i can buy my boys cool shoes
oh...my list of what I need here in Oz is so long....I was spoilt for too long. Anthropologie, W&S, PB, Restoration Hardware, Gap, Old Navy, Costco, Trader Joes, Crate and Barell, West side markets, 24 hour Home Depot and Target stores...oh I need to stop...homesickness....
I also wish we had single coloured M&M's, actually more choice in the single coloured candy department.
I also wish we had those lovely paper honeycomb balls, the ones you hang from the ceiling. Oh and more choice in cake stands, other than boring white. I also which we had a Cath Kidston outlet here (drool) so I can actually touch and feel before I buy.
Welcome to My Life My Loves. I am a wife and mum of two with a strong passion for entertaining, creating dessert tables, beautiful interiors, flowers and travel.
