Lovely Rooms

I was just over at one of my favourite blogs 'desire to inspire', and wanted to share some of their lovely rooms that really strike a chord with me. I'm not a big fan of homes that look like show homes. My favourites are ones that are a little bit quirky, and full of personality.
All three of these rooms fit the bill...

This looks like a fun table to sit around with friends or family.

I love the Dr Seuss print, and also love the contrast of the dresser and the light with the children's pieces.

Gorgeous bedroom, and that stripy runner would love it at my house!

Competition Winner

I am going to make this a happy Monday for one of you lovely people. Thank you to everyone who took part in the "Like Us & Love Us" competition. The winner is Amy Cooper, and she will be receiving her favourite print, 'Blue Wash Protea'. Drop me an email, Amy, with your address, and I'll get that off to you.

Also, I've added some fantastic new Two Black Cats products to the Cush & Nooks store, so pop over and have a look. There will be more products arriving soon.

Christmas Inspiration

December is turning into an extremely busy month for me, even more than usual. Yesterday we celebrated my amazing Dad's birthday with a family picnic by the river. Lots of good home cooked food, some bubbly, lots of laughter, and the kids & the dogs swam to their heart's content in the river. Then we rushed home to greet my daughter's friends who were coming over for a sleep-over party. With five 9-year olds, plus my two little 6-year olds, it was a house full of giggles (quite late into the night!).


Now that those two very special birthdays are over, I can focus on Christmas. I love this idea of adding a little bauble on your Christmas wrapping. How are your Christmas preparations coming along?
