 Picture of the coast,


 Bit cold for a surf if you ask me,

 My Nan's beautiful garden from the dining room window,

 Horrible picture of the water from the balcony, I wish it would just be sunny for a couple of hours :(


Mural painted on the side of our decking.

Blogtoberfest Day 31: Flea Market Finds

Even though Sophie is not doing Flea Market finds this week, I just had to share because I have had bountiful finds this week!


Found at the Kongwak Market this morning. 
Can't wait to get home and find some matching fabric to recover the cushion in.


Also found at Kongwak market. 
Just love the colours of the anodised cups. 
DJ is happy because I already have a set and I said we can use these ones instead of displaying them. 
Somehow drinks just taste so much better out of them!


Bargain vintage pillow covers. 
I'm thinking I may have to get started on my vintage quilt. I'm thinking vintage chenille for the back of it, so I better get searching for that.

DJ has promised more Op Shopping for tomorrow so hopefully there will be things for me to share next week on Flea Market finds since I have jumped the gun this week!

Blogtorfest Day 30: Lazy Day


Op shopping in the morning, homemade sausage rolls for lunch, DJ made Lasagne for tea, Pinot, and The West Wing season 1, I don't think my day could get much better

I wouldn't lie to you

Just made it down to the holiday house. Weather is still really nice and I'm sitting outside wondering whether I should go get a drink :) Thought you would love to see a picture of the beach at night! Be back tomorrow with some better pictures for you (or not if it rains like they say it's meant to!).

Blogtoberfest Day 28: My Creative Space

Unfortunately the rotary cutting fairy did not come and cut out the rest of my quilt :(
But I am slowly getting there. 
The rest of the blocks are cut out and the rows are all sewn together.
Hopefully by the end of the day I will have a new quilt. 
Can't wait to show you how massive it is (it won't even fit on my lounge room floor!)

Blogtoberfest Day 27: Wednesday Love..

Today I am loving small parcels,


 That are waiting on your front doorstep, when you go outside, 


That have cute little warning stickers like these,


And even cuter masking tape on the back,


Boy am I glad I ordered two of these packages,


more cute stickers and card,


And this very silky and soft material, 
just look how gorgeous that elephant looks,


It's a huge bit of fabric, and I have two pieces,
Now I want to make this or maybe PJs?

I would love to know what you are loving this Wednesday...

Ps. Don't forget to enter my Giveaway!

Blogtoberfest Day 26: Tuesday Treasures


My Tuesday Treasure is the first thing I ever got off Etsy. I has being eying off these two on therunnybunny for weeks, maybe even months, when surprise, they turned up in the mail. A lovely present from DJ!


Bunnydeer has to be one of my most favourite things I own. 
It is slipped casted and DJ got her specially made for me.
I'm really not to sure why I love it so much. I just find it so kooky and cute!


Really love Owl as well. How cute are those little little acorns she is perched on. I really like the detail on her feathers as well.

For more cute Tuesday Treasures see Clare.
