• A birch tree bunting for the new baby

  

  This birch tree trunk has accompanied us on two house moves…destined to be put to good use ‘one-day’… That day has now finally arrived. And my husband is thrilled. It was clogging up his garage, apparently. I have used it as the centre-piece to our new daughter’s nursery (due to arrive in 8 days time).

• Decision time – butterflies or birds for my burlap canvases?

  Months ago I re-covered 2 canvases with burlap (I didn’t like the creation from a previous crafty exploit). I had two ideas for these two new burlap canvases, but couldn’t decide. Many would describe me as having ‘thing’ for butterflies and birds. Previous ramblings featuring birds and butterflies are testament to that. Before making a…

• Heidi’s first birthday party…(any excuse to sip on sparkling and eat honey joys!)

  

  We made it…. our (not so little) Heidi is now one! The photo below was taken before all her buddies arrived for her party last weekend. Whilst I love this photo, I prefer the ‘behind the scenes’ shots that show you her true personality…   Wow this is fun sitting on an adults chair… I…

• Stool transformation

  There is a story behind most of the items of furniture in our home – I like it that way (partly, because I love telling stories!!). These four stools have recently become one of my transformation stories. Where do I get the motivation (and time) to do all this? OK, I’ll be honest, these stools…
