ROYAL WEDDING FEVER

 

I most definitely had a bad case of it this morning....

Watching the guests arrive I started suffering from Hat Envy and just had to put my hat on and take a pic.

 We enjoyed some lovely Coffee (don't do Tea) yes in a tea cup, and home made scones with strawberry jam and cream.

STEP ONE...

My very 1st attempt at it! Any tips welcome.....?

WHAT ARE THE ODDS

I ordered myself a gorgeous lil Bambi from Genevieve Motley look how pretty it's been wrapped.

I also took part in a present swop organised by Angie from Lucky Pony. And you will never guess what arrived in the post on exactly the same day......... another BAMBI!

What are the odds???! LOL! Wrapped in a gorgeous red scarf

and then a pretty lil box with a big red bow

  

and inside the cutest lil baby BAMBI!

Thank you Amy Scheepers . I "PUFFY HEART" my gift.

OOPS!!!

So sometimes you just don't get it right the 1st time round, this sure was the case of the PRINCESS we rescued.

 


The inspiration was a speckled hen.

 

clearly the table did not see itself as chicken,

 but more as a PRINCESS!

So remember lil Miss Before and After?

LOOKEY LIKEY

IT WAS COLONEL MUSTARD IN THE LIBRARY

 or is it the kitchen?

In the quest to BANISH all Built in Cupboards in our home, it was time to get creative. 

Many magazines and endless trips out looking for inspiration. It hit us!! Why not the Library cupboard?

All it needed was a new stainless steel rail,handles and a couple coats of paint.

Funny enough it fits perfectly, as if it was made for the space.

 

 

SYMPATHY PAIN

So it seems even my furniture is suffering.... My dining room table at the moment looks the way I feel.

I HEART THIS COLOUR

So this morning I was reading  a post from a blog  I love - see above. The colour,altho slighty different reminded me so much of my own bedroom and bathroom.

Are you a fan of this colour?
