Feeling inspired by the illustrative work of Canadian artist Helen and her blog Orange You Lucky!

it's just, a little crush...


I have a wee bit of a crush on painted/decorative plates, and with beauties like these by Lisa Grue out there, I don't see my crush ending anytime soon!

p.s: her prints are amazing as well!

The next round of baby showers are about to begin, and, with birdinabunnysuit prints having been my signature gift for the last year, I'm pretty excited about the new range that has just been released!




I've ear marked a few favourites from Gorman's new arrivals. With my birthday just around the corner and my student loan almost completely paid off (yay!!) it might be time for a Gorman treat!

The Edmonds recipe challenge #7 – Lemon Meringue Pie.

I made this for a BBQ on Saturday night and got the thumbs up from everyone there. It looked good and tasted delicious! No one could believe it was my first ever attempt at making one.
I think i'll be adding this to my list of dessert recipe go-to's. Thanks Edmonds!

Married!


I have been a wife for almost 7 days!!!
Getting married is sooooo much fun, I definitely recommend it.

I'm still waiting to get photos back from our photographer, but in the mean time here are a few snaps of the hall I decorated the day before, with the help of lots of amazing friends and family.

I made everything myself, my mum raided her garden for flowers and my sister did all of the arrangements. Everything looked so colourful. It was exactly what I wanted!
