Twinkle Twinkle

One of the nice things about this time of year is to see fairy lights
all around, and they are so perfect for any type of party not just for 
Christmas decorations. If you aren't crazy about tinsel, then throw 
a few fairy lights about the place and you have an instant festive vibe.  





Spring tablescapes



Another superb Spring day here in Brisbane, and the last days of the school holidays.
These amazing tablescapes are inspiring me to throw a garden party. Or attend one...
Have a beautiful weekend.

...Flowers

Yesterday my Girl and I made a trip out to the Rocklea flower market.
I was hoping they would have heliconia flowers and other tropical
lovelies to fill our house with. The market wasn't as big as I expected,
but had enough to turn me into a deer looking into headlights ( I get a
bit overwhelmed when surrounded by beutiful things).

It's was worth the drive, because they are wholesale, I left with 
three big bunches of stunning super fresh flowers for the price of
one bunch. Photographers are coming tomorrow, and fresh flowers
always make a house look amazing. First open house next weekend-
YAY!

Not a very good pic sorry, taken with my iPhone as my new Canon
hasn't arrived yet.....starting to wonder. Snapdragons with glossy
green leaves (can't remember the name).
Heliconia crab claw, Flax leaves (two colours), ginger leaves, some
red sticks from a tree (I thought they were painted but they're not)
and pretty yellow Orchids.


I got some new cushions too, to freshen up the sitting room. I love
the coral with the green, what do you think? I'm trying to achieve a
pacific Island resort vibe, I just hope all the colour going on in the
house doesn't scare off potential buyers. At least you can't go wrong
with colourful flowers! 

......New camera

I'm excited, I've finally bought myself a decent camera.
As I'm a newbie on the blog scene, I quickly noticed my
photos weren't cutting the mustard. I ended up buying a
Canon rebel DSLR after much procrastination, and asking
other bloggers what they have. So I hope to take some
good photos of interiors soon. This will be me, sneaking
around in the grass for that perfect shot.

And maybe I will be able to come up with a stunning table scape
images like this one.....
