Party time!

With a milestone birthday on the horizon, my brain has been consumed with party decorations, cake, food and drink! Mr is organising the whole thing and keeps asking me for pictures of what I like. Here's a small sample...I'm sure you will enjoy them too!

My longest ever and oh so talented friend Mel is 'chomping at the bit' (pardon the pun) to make a cake. So sweet Mel!

What do you get...

...when you take...

some too gorgeous to give away gift tags handmade by Mrs Tiff and...

...a magnificent white picture frame found on sale at Target for a total bargain?

Answer: a piece of art work to hang in your newly renovated bathroom!

Tweet tweet!

"Tweet tweet"...so sweet! I was given these little birdies by one of my students today. For no reason...just because. Aren't they the best type of gifts?

I'm a winner!

I am often one to say...'I never win anything!' Well, this week I was the lucky winner of the giveaway held by Mrs Tiff ~ http://mrstifflivingcreatively.blogspot.com

I won this gorgeous chalkboard bunting which I quickly hung in the bedroom. Thank you Mrs Tiff! I just love it. For similar handmade treasures visit her Etsy store: Mrs Tiff's Feathered Nest. Happy shopping!

Spring Cleaning!

In all this wet weather, there isn't much to do except get in the spirit of cleaning the house...it is Spring after all! I started with the kitchen this weekend. Inspired by all of the amzing white kitchens I drool over in blog land, I pulled absolutely everything off the shelves and gave it all a spruce up.

The only thing left to do now inside is cook up something warm!
