SO VERY LUCKY - Romantic Homes December Issue

Well it is a rainy Monday afternoon and I just finished packaging up my last ever catalogue.... What a wonderfully exciting day it has been as this morning I had a wonderful comment on my blog from a lovely shop owner in America - Dawn from The Feathered Nest.....
Her blog was about the new December Issue of Romantic Homes which features a craft project of mine as well as this blog..... I was so excited to see a sneak peak... Thank you so much Dawn.. I can't wait to see a real copy of it.... Romantic Homes has been a wonderful support to me this year and I thank them so much for that....

a beautiful place

Well Saturday afternoon I had the privilege of walking through my friend Angela's garden... It was just exquisite so on the way home I had to treat myself to a couple of beautiful bunches of roses at our local rose farm.... So pretty.... Anyway life is just hectic at the moment.... I wish I truly had more time to smell the roses but I am so blessed to have so many wonderful customers and I will work very hard for them till my break in December....

My friend and inspiration

Yesterday I found this amazing parcel waiting for me at my post office box. My dear friend and constant inspiration Elizabeth Maxson of Elizabeth House had sent me all these sweet little memories from her store.... I must tell you I nearly cried as she wrote me sweet notes about every piece and why it was significant to her... It was about this time last year that Elizabeth took a risk on ordering some charms from me and I must say this changed my business and attitude to business forever... Thank you E.........

inspiration - I love mirrors

Hi everyone
Just a quick entry today as life is so hectic at the moment... My beautiful kids went back to school today and now I have to focus on these orders I have piling up.... I am in love with mirrors at the moment.. (first photo in my lounge room). I would have so many more if it was up to me.... I also received a new book the other day from Amazon that I have been waiting a little while for... It is called At Home with white by Atlanta Bartlett... Some of it is a little modern for me but overall it is just a BEAUTIFUL book ..... Very calming and a great inspirations and ideas for the courthouse.....
