I will post a more detailed look later.

I hope everybody had a fantastic Christmas! 

We all had a wonderful day.

Merry Christmas All!

 

  

Merry Christmas All!

The forecast looks good and the dining room is set.

I am off to decorate outside..............

tie the bows on my posts I have been meaning to for weeks.

A big thankyou to Julie-Ann at The Decorating Forum for featuring my blog last week!

 

Christmas in the Dining Room!

This year we are having Christmas at my house! 

I am not all organised but the tree is up with Ollie's beautiful decoration he made at school right at the top.

It will be lovely, just 8 adults and 4 little children plus baby Hugo!

Due to the 'normal' numbers we are going to have it in the dining room.

If it is a beautiful day I will open the french doors to the verandah.

In The Shed Today....

I have had a much needed whole weekend at home! 

Today I deadheaded the roses then headed straight to the shed for a big reshuffle, to unpack my new stock and to make way for more new arrivals this week. 

We have been fortunate enough not to have been too effected by the rain so are reaping lentils, thoughts go to those farmers who have been less fortunate in other areas.

Adore Magazine Feature!

Very very excited to be featured in the super stylish new issue of Adore Home Magazine!

Busy Times!

My Winchester Cathedrals

 Harvest has started (slowly), the roses are out.............deadheading required, Christmas Trading is in full swing with new stock arriving all the time, I have been helping with the Choreography for my son's first school production on this Thursday night and I have just had my first stall at the Maitland Art and Craft Fair.

Life is busy but it is amazing what you can get done when you are so busy!

Really looking forward to the show on Thursday night.

Special thanks to lovely Bec from Life In the Country Lane for helping me move my stall out of the weather Sat. lovely to catch up in the flesh!

Oh Fiddlesticks!

 

Don't you just love a talented friend.............

  I am so excited to introduce to you Fiddlesticks Design by my gorgeous friend Sarah Hollams. 

This lovely lady is a local girl, mother to 3 beautiful boys, a dedicated farmers wife and one of the most talented decorators I know! (You should see her house!)

She was so shy when she first showed me her designs.

As soon as I saw them I just had to have them in my shop. 

I absolutely love Sarah's style and they compliment my wares so well.

For more take a look in my store!
