all sorts of lovely...


my sewing box is now overflowing...i love it.


Luke stealthily bought 2 tickets to see Wicked (woohoo!) for Valentine's. We went on tuesday night and it was magnificent! He also bought me the program which is full of cool pictures :)



my growing collection of little goldens. i was recently given another to add to the collection by a very lovely lady.





one of my fabric packages from the etsy store 'little tea wagon' arrived in the mailbox today! it was wrapped up so nicely, and the sheets smell of lovely laundry powder, rather than my great grandmother's wardrobe.




i was in west end today and couldn't resist popping into one of my favourite stores, Nook. i bought another pair of earrings, and some little jane st ribbon and a magnet to add to the collection.

lovely pages.














I love these 2 books; both are christmas presents. the first is pip lincolne's latest craft book 'sew la tea do.' it's awesome! I made the choc chip cookies from her recipe in the back and they are tasty. she is a very talented lady and the photos she has captured for her book are really gorgeous. thanks pip!

the second book is '101 dreams' from kikki k. this was a gift from my mum, for me to document my 101 list. it has a few of my favourite quotes inside. it is lovely.

it's been a while.

Greetings! This is my first post in quite some time. Hopefully these pictures will fill you in on the last couple of weeks...

1. I made a pear pillow, and now my whole family wants their own.

2. I bought a Polaroid 300 camera.

3. Mum and Dad came home from the US and brought back some goodies.
(They also bought me some lights for the new room, but they will be revealed later!)

4. I bought the new Frankie 'Spaces' book. It is fab.

5. (Most of) my Brooke Fraser package came. I'm still waiting on the coffee table book!

6. I scored tickets to her concert at The Tivoli in January (eeek!)

7. I've been planning my new bedroom.

8. I sent some love-mail to one of my friends who goes to College in NSW.

9. I bought some fabric from Penelope & Pip's Etsy store.

10. I saw these beautiful peonies at the James St Markets in the Valley, and I was in awe.

naive.


This is such a great book. I bought it last July on our first family trip to the USA. It is full of amazing graphic design concepts, including awesome music and awareness posters. Definitely worth your pennies!
