Just a Quickie


Super quick blog post tonight!

'Twas a lovely surprise to see my Heart Brooch as one of Lauren's Made It Picks this week. Hopefully next week I'll actually have some spare time to make some more.

I have some really really exciting news to share, but alas, I can't spill the beans just yet.... and I still have my fingers (and toes) crossed for Finders Keepers. The suspense is killing me!!!

Loot Glorious Loot - Day 1

I'm joining in with Tinniegirl's week of Loot Glorious Loot where we all get to show off things we've swapped / bought / made.... not that I need any more encouragement to show off!

Anyway, last week was my birthday, and I had a little bit of money in my paypal account that was burning a hole in my virtual pocket, so I had a little bit of a click around Made It to see what I could find just for me....

I settled on a lovely glass pendant from What Katy Did (I'm becoming even more seriously addicted to handmade jewellery).....


When I opened the package, I found this lovely padded fabric bucket (in my favourite colour combination), and a fabric wrapped package.

Inside the fabric wrapped package was this beautiful hand stitched felt pouch and a handmade card....

Inside the pouch was this gorgeous pendant!
I loved the little fabric bucket so much that I took it along to the market on Saturday and used it on my stall for my business cards.
Katy has some more gorgeous pendants in her Made It Shop and also some wall and window decals. My favourite is the Cherry Blossom.

Love Handmade Jewellery

I've realised lately that I have a passion (some may say addiction) for handmade jewellery.
I have a huge array from casual and funky, to formal and dressy, but I absolutely love all of it!

Usually the most difficult question I ask myself each morning is "Which pieces of jewellery shall I wear with my outfit"?

Following my passion, I bought myself a pair of these beautiful Belle earrings from Sharon at Handmaiden. They're a lovely silvery grey, perfect for an occassion where I need to dress up.

Sharon has just launched her Etsy store this weekend where you can find all of her beautiful creations.

I've also been coveting the lovely jewellery creations of Lauren Williams for quite a while now.

I was lucky enough to do a swap with Lauren and I received this gorgeous necklace and matching ring. The necklace pendant can be taken off and then it doubles as a brooch. Yah for multifunctional jewellery!

Lauren has a Made It shop full of lovely creations to check out.

Now..... I need to decide what to wear today!

A second adoption

The postie was nice enough to leave a big box on my doorstep yesterday afternoon.






I was expecting Jane the Kiwi to arrive.... so I was quite suprised when I picked up the box and realised how heavy it was.



Inside was this huge package of goodies!



It seems that Jane needed some nesting material to accompany her on her long journey from Sydney to Melbourne......

She bought along some very useful and very timely quilting magazines....

.....and some beautiful fabrics in my favourite colours!

I took Jane on a tour of the house and garden so that she would feel at home. Here she is checking out the potplants.....

....and getting acquainted with the cat
She even tried to jump the fence and go for a swim (I didn't realise Kiwi's liked water so much)...

But in the end, she found a nice comfy spot in the high chair in the kitchen with her new best friend Cherry. If you look closely, you can see that Cherry is even giving her a cuddle...so sweet!

If you love Jane the Kiwi as much as I love Jane the Kiwi, then you can head on over to Amy's Badskirt blog, or her Made It shop and adopt Jane's sister/brother/cousin etc....

Thankyou Amy.

They are all handmade by Gabbie and no 2 candles are alike. Head on over to her Made It shop to check them out, or you can also check out her Cupcake Candles website. Message for my family and friends who might by reading....just keep these in mind for me for Christmas OK!
