Finding time

Hope your weekend is wonderful and you find time to relax and enjoy it with those most precious to you.

I picked these blooms from the garden this morning and placed them in this Spode creamer. I really love blue and pink together.

Chocolate Custard Eggs

Here is a super easy and fun way to serve custard at Easter time.

Take a hollow chocolate Easter egg and carefully cut the very top off. Make it large enough to be able to fit a small tea spoon inside easily.

Place the egg in an egg cup and fill with delicious thick custard. Easy hey?

I just used hot glue to secure a pretty ribbon around the edge of the egg cup to give it a little punch!

Hope you are enjoying the lead up to Easter.

Latest Adore Magazine

The latest Adore Magazine is out! Loni asked me to share five things that I'm coveting right now. Click here to read. My friend Judy Bandiera has also been featured.

Can you guess the two things that I've actually stopped coveting and now own? Keep in mind I'm currently in Manhattan.

Simple pleasures

For those of you living in Brisbane did you happen to see the breathtaking sunset last evening?

I was literally stopped in my tracks when I turned into our street. This is the image that presented itself to me. If you look carefully you can see the road in the picture.

I'm so glad that I keep my point and shoot in my handbag at all times. You never know when something beautiful is going to be presented to you do you?

This is the softer evening sky I saw once I parked the car. Pinks and blues are one of my favourite colour combinations.

Hop to it!

I loved the Easter Printables Sarah from Style Me Gorgeous designed so much I asked her to create some choc bar wrappers and something I could print onto these cotton drawstring bags.

I love how they turned out so much that these are the little Easter treats William will hand out to his classmates this year.

You can purchase the pre printed muslin bags here.

This past weekend I had the pleasure in being part of a Bridal Showcase at The Style Establishment. I met a heap of other lovely wedding vendors and had a lot of fun.

Thank you to Jodie Randolph-Birch from W.edding & Co for inviting me to be apart of this and to Leanne from Leanne Stamatellos Photography for capturing these beautiful images. Also thank you to Sarah from Style Me Gorgeous for designing the beautiful chocolate bar wraps.

I wanted to share with you some images of the sweets table I put together for the day.

I hope you enjoy!

The Place we call Home - Part 2

A few of my readers have asked for more photos of our home. So here goes. Thank you for all the sweet comments you have left here on my blog and emailed to me personally regarding our home. I do wake up each and everyday and know that I'm blessed.

I collect hobnail milk glass.

This beautiful Pimms Lounge is from Lily-G. Cushion also.

Does this look familiar? Yes it's the little vignette I have in our bathroom. Love it to bits.

I hope you've enjoyed peeking into our home. Thank you again to Anna, Judy, Catherine and Simon.
