Black & White Style

Spending the week doing fun things with my little men. 

Movies, playgrounds, visiting friends etc.

Also viewing and ordering some beautiful new stock for the shop.

Can't wait to share the new arrivals with you including some stunning lamps very similar to this.

The shop's new direction is allowing me to develop its own style even more this year.

Yet again you can't beat elegant black and white style!

Dress ups!

My beautiful niece Charlotte turned 7 this week!

This was the cousins all together at the beach celebrating her birthday with her. They were quite a sight marching along the beach in front of the shacks all in a line.

Charlotte is wearing the outfit I got her from Poppy & Rose designer tutus and tops. Doesn't she look beautiful?

The cousins had their first sleepover at the shack together then went for a tube ride together and played some beach cricket.

Don't die of shock but I am actually starting to enjoy my time at the beach and I think I have these little people to thank for it!

Happy New Year

Happy New Year all!

I have just spent four fabulous days at beautiful Black Point with my loved ones.

Unfortunately my online store doesn't run itself whilst I am away. 

My latest purchase my iPad was so handy, this was my view while I worked away on it!

What are your New Year resolutions? 

My first one is to eat better and exercise more starting today.

SALE TIME

It's that time again! 

Head over to my online store to grab a bargain in my post Christmas Sale.

While you are there check out some of my gorgeous new arrivals.

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I will share details of mine very soon.

Merry Christmas All

Thank you all for your well wishes as my business takes a slightly different direction in 2012.

It has been a very busy lead up to Christmas Day and I am really looking forward to having some time with my family. To me Christmas is completely about my boys. I don't want or need presents just to see their smiling and excited faces is enough. 

One of my beautiful local clients Marion made those amazing gingerbread biscuits for me, isn't she clever?

Here they are on my tree with the stunning clay tags my sister bought from Ness for the boys

Thanks to all of my local and online customers who have supported my business this year, have a wonderful, safe and happy Christmas!

Important Announcement

After careful consideration as of next year 

THE WHITE SHED will operate as an online store only with the shed to become the warehouse.

Locals will be able to shop online and select local pickup and there will still be shopping events held at the shed throughout the year.

The past few years has been extremely busy and due to the huge growth of the online store,

I hope by streamlining the business I will be able to be able to operate more efficiently, have a larger range and to spend more time with my family.

Next Tuesday the 20th December will be the the final Tuesday the shed will be open from 9.30am until 2.30pm.

A sneak peek!

Just a little sneak peek at our formal lounge which I have been working on for a while now.

Apologies for the photo quality, I had to use my phone as my camera died!

Have a lovely week all.

Local Ladies Christmas Lunch

Yesterday I had seven lovely local ladies over for a rather long Christmas Lunch.

This time of year is crazy busy with harvest, the shop and children's commitments but I always think you should make the time and effort to catch up.

I have so many funny memories of yesterday!

On the menu was prawn bruschettas with avocado salsa, turkey roll with cranberry and pistachio stuffing with pumpkin, rocket and fetta salad followed by Georgie's amazing Lemon Tart and Jo's delicious truffles.

I am truly blessed to have such wonderful friends and a fabulous local community to live in. 

I wouldn't rather live anywhere in the world!
