posies in my garden

I've been working very hard in my garden over the past couple of months trying to transform it from jungle to pretty! lately the flowers have been putting on a lovely display and there is colour everywhere....love it


 these pretty posies are an old style rose I actually grew from a cutting....one of only two successes I've had

marigolds will always remind me of our visit to Nepal last year....they were everywhere

such a pretty view first thing in the morning

xmas is coming

I love Xmas. I love the excitement, the looks on kids faces, time to party, Xmas eve, cooking for Xmas day (mmmmm pavlova!), everyone wishing each other good times and good cheer, and the love of being with those I treasure.
 I also love making Xmas decorations! this year groups of these trees are going to adorn my table and cupboard tops.
 and these gorgeously coloured fabric balls are going to be grouped in bowls around the house
 and these pretty hearts are going on the tree....see the tiny antique frozen charlotte doll body all the way from germany...
music to my ears...
if you would like some of these to brighten your home too this Xmas I've listed some in the shop just now. be quick.
