...Dressing Table Vignette

I love my Victorian dressing table, my husband bought it for me as a surprise 30th birthday present (quite a few years ago!!!).  I love dressing tables in general, there are so many different types, from antique to ultra modern but I wonder if they are going out of "fashion"  Do you remember "Carrie's" mirrored  DT in  the first Sex and the City movie?  Loved it.

If you look through the mirror, you will just see my own "Time Framed" memorabilia.  If you didn't already know, this is what I do.  My lovely clients give me their personal memorabilia, I then make a "vignette" of the items, write about each one of them, then have them boxed framed.  They can be themed ie, wedding, travels or  a complete story of your life.  If you would like to see more of my work, please go here.  I will put a close up of mine on the site if you would like to have a look.

I would love to hear about or see images of "what on your dressing table".  Happy weekend.

 

...Roll on holidays...

Hmmmm an interesting time.  My eldest son is nearly at the end of his uni exams (until next term) and middle son in the middle of year 12 exams.  They are sitting the GAT exam today which can't be studied for - more of a general knowledge test.  Thank goodness little son (grade 6) doesn't have exams right now.  Can't wait for the holidays to start next week.

....Happy 18th Cam

Happy birthday to our beautiful middle son Cameron.  There is not a day goes by that you don't make us laugh.  You are such a lovely soul and we love you very much.  Hope you enjoyed your party. (now get back to studying!!!!!!) xxxxxx

......A Love Story

I know I have been talking about alot of movies lately, but another to add to the "must see" list is "Letters to Juliet".

Oh how beautiful it was.  A love story starring  the fabulous Vanessa Redgrave, what a gentle soul - you just want to kiss her.  Amanda Seyfried was her usual lovely self (great actress, so natural) and not to mention our very own (Sydney born) Christopher Egan.  He has his British accent downpat and I must say, he is very delicious.

The whole movie makes you want to visit Verona RIGHT NOW. 
If you would like to watch the trailer below, please remember to scroll down to the end and turn off my playlist.  Hope you go to see it - I don't think you will be disappointed.  If you have already seen it let me know what you thought.  I love getting your comments.

......Pinklily

As we all have increasingly busy lives, I find myself "shopping" more and more online.  My favourite place to shop at the moment is a fabulous very glam website called Pinklily

Sascha Griffin is the very entrepreneurial owner and founder.  She invented the original "clear shoe box".   Her online shop has so many glamorous items from storage to bling  It really is well worth a visit, oh and the service is fantastic - guaranteed next day delivery in Sydney and usually two days anywhere else in Australia.  And as an added treat, wait to see how it arrives - specially packaged  in her "signature hot pink" of course, couriered straight to your door.
