Project from August Romantic Homes

Finally got my copy of August Romantic Homes yesterday so thought I would share a photo of my project. Made from vintage linen and old paper and sweet pearl buttons... Just added one of my tag charms to the front to finish it off.....

August Romantic Homes

I haven't received my copy yet but watch out for my little french needle case project in the August edition of Romantic Homes...

Going away

Heading away today for 6 glorious days on the coast of northern NSW.... Will tell you heaps when I get back.

Winter Holidays

Well Kirstie and Andrew are just about to start Winter holidays so I will be taking a little break with them... There will be lots of sleep ins and watching movies near the fire and just having a rest... Hopefully time to catch up at looking at some inspirational blogs and lovely magazines. I will be here so still drop by and say Hi I just won't be working on new orders till the 16th of July. For my US girls watch out for a project by me in the August edition of Romantic Homes, I will put a photo of the front cover on my blog when it is available... I really "love" what I did for this magazine so let me know what you think....

Orders, orders and more orders

Working on loads of orders at the moment... This lovely bevel I have used an original clipping from an early 1900's book my dear friend Angela gave me... Hopefully very, very soon new things to tempt you with....

AND THE WINNER IS???????? CHRISTINE!!!!!

Thank you so very much for all your wonderful comments... I look forward to bringing you heaps more new creations in the next year..

1 year Tomorrow

It will be one year tomorrow since I started my Shoppe Blog...It has definitely been a wonderful journey. To celebrate this event I am going to have a small give away... This time it will be a little parcel of surprise... All I would like you to do is drop by and write what you would like to see from me in the year ahead (Prize drawn on June 1 - first day of winter)... My wholesale side of my business is quiet large now and unfortunately this gives me very little time to work on new and exciting things for my blog so I apologise for that but more importantly I want to thank you all for your wonderful support of this blog over the last year...Loads more adventures to come....
