My Dream Home


I have always dreamed of french doors and windows




And white wicker baskets



Elegant chandeliers paired with stripes



And definitely that little corner for a spot of tea




Of course a grand dining room



Elegant bedroom




With gold touches and tuille




A dreamy guest room




Or two



With it's own bathroom



And romantic places to enjoy outside






Preferably with more chandeliers



And fragrant bloosom trees.




Heaven















Just Add Bling

Where ever I go I seem to be drawn to "Bling"
Such as my Mothers Day gloves



Or added to a flower



To the front of shoes



Or behind



Or hidden underneath



I would love to create these twinkling diamonds



Or sparkle on a cake



Soo pretty!



Or add to a candle



Or put together with my other favourite....feathers!




And for those final touches




I love "BLING !"
Don't you?

Love Affair with Blue

For as long as I can remember I have always loved blue
Not only does it bring me joy

But a sense of peace





And serenity






And pure delight!

Mothers Day

How did your day go?
Mine started with homemade pancakes served with summer
berries and vanilla yoghurt.
Absolutely divine! And who made them?
Darling daughter of course.
This was followed by with presents.
I was totally spoilt this year. Darling daughter gave me
a years subscription to a housey mag together with
elegant gloves out of the softest
angora.
Note the diamontes !
Husband dearest gave me the beautiful white throw pictured behind.
And Darling son No.1......
Well, what a surprise! The George Forman grill I'd been eying off.
Not bad for a uni student!

To cap off a wonderful day
Darling Daughter whipped up my favourite dessert.
Bombe Alaska.


How clever is she?
How lucky am I?
Happy Mothers Day!

High Tea


Would you like to join me and my friends for High Tea?


First , champagne on arrival



Then seated to be served tea



Perhaps green tea or peach and raspberry



Delicious belgian biscuits




Strawberry custard tarts




Elegantly wrapped soaps for mothers and daughters to take home



A magical time together!
