madeit find : + a dose of pink.......

i haven't done a madeit find on clothing yet and i came across this sweet little suit, you can find this cute suit at minienvy on madeit, they call it spurt {spurt is wearing pink dots with a black and white eye today} how adorable is that?????

also on madeit, i added this new set from the circular collection, with some beautiful pink fabric

i have a dining table

look what i got just last night my very own dining table.....wow i have never owned my own dining table, we have been using a tressle table from bunnings for the past 7 years and before that, we were using my parents while they were overseas.....

i was on ebay the other night looking for old vintage bikes and thought i'd have a scroll through the dining table, i saw this and it was perfect, i won it from a very lovely lady for $65.00......we are going to strip it and paint

it white, even though i don't mind it this colour {which surprises me} i do love the legs on it.....

my only dilemma is that my louie ghost's don't quite fit underneath, thank goodness i have a handy man who is gonna fix this problem.....

anyway i wanted to share my exciting new purchase, makes me feel like a grown up hehehe......what do you think???? and any advise on a good paint, i have primer already?????

hello hello i'm back

wow what a whirlwind weekend, i've been in brisbane working for my sis-in-law {victoria} at the reed gift fair if you've never been to one, check it out it is fun and there are so many things you can buy at cost....i thought of all you ladies who are into decor and furnishings, you would of been in heaven, of course i had to purchase a few goodies myself, i love cereamics and spent most of my time in the homeware section...

if anyone went to the gift fair we were the stand selling pebblemats they are fantastic and for me the bonus is never having to wash a bath mat again....

i've missed catching up on what you've all been up too and seeing all your wonderful finds/news/products etc, although i can't complain i did stay in a beachfront apartment in mermaid beach was lovely.....hope your all having a wonderful thursday

house is officially on the market eekkk!!!!

well the sign went up yesterday and now we are on realestate.com yup the house is officially on the market.....oh my goodness!!!!

i was looking through the photos and thought my gosh, my bedroom looks so dull and flat, so i thought it was time for a change around {before the open home}

what do you think??? i think it was missing some colour ......do you like the bedlinen??? my sister-in-law who is an interior designer in nz, org this bedlinen for my birthday which they sell at her amazing store the urban lounge.....i love it, so simple but stylish......

i think my next purchase i would like is the mustard throw from elk accessories....
