I won, I won!!

It is such an amazing sunny autumn day today!
I had my grandparents and family over for a Saturday morning tea and now I am going to finish my essay, but firstly, I did my usual check of the blogs that I follow to see some new posts and to my surprise... I won something!
I love the blog lolalina and last week she was running a give away of these beautiful prints by Davina + Daniel. To enter you just had to leave a comment with the link to your fave and...
I won!
Look at the gorgeous print that will be sent to me. I think it's very simple and sweet, and it has made my day!

Is it a CRIME to go PINK?

I don't know if you remember but i found a white antique chair in hard rubbish back in March and I have been wondering what to do with it.

Tell me, is it a crime to paint it PINK?

I have found a few pics to get me in the PINK mood and I'm thinking they may have just won me over - arrest me and put me behind bars!

content!

Had a lovely week end jam packed with great friends, great food and fun things

Enjoying sitting in front of the heater, finishing my book and sipping a coffee

Had a great morning at church

Chicken pot pies for tea followed by locally made cranberry and nut chocolate for dessert

I dont want to study

I dont want to work tomorrow

Just savouring this moment of joy and contentment!

A NEW LEAF

In my spare time this week (and in my study procrastination), i have been searching high and lo for the perfect new 'Blog Template'.
I found that the ones on here for us to use are just a bit drab. But, too be honest I am over it and will never stray again, there is so much crap out there to sort through and it was tedious. I became a bit obsessed and couldnt rest until my blog looked fresh and new. Finally...Brad stepped in and helped me out (Thank you kind man) and this is the final product! This is the new page and I'm sticking with it and to be honest who can be bothered going through that again. Hope you like it. I have an exciting new project for next week...stay tuned. It may just be time for a little cooking. The week end is calling, Enjoy it. E xx

The table stay's!!

Thanks for all the feed back on the "little round" table. It will stay in it's cosy place for now until it is called onto greener pastures. I told you that I would tell you about it once feed back was received so...It was purchased for a mere $2 from an Op shop in Diamond Creek. It had a plastic cover on top which wasn't stuck on at all. I pulled that off, painted it white and well, that's about all.

I will put some ribbon or a plastic border around the edge when i get a spare minute, to hide the chip board edging.

I can highly recommend the op shop in Diamond Creek - It's on the main street just before the railway crossing on your left. It is run by sweet old ladies who sell everything very cheap and it's quite (deceivingly) huge, selling furniture, clothing and house hold goods. You will need to be in a rummaging mood though.

Enjoy the beautiful weather and thanks for reading!

Does the table stay or go? I need your help!

I need your help! Does this table stay or go? I purchased this table and have found a cosy spot for it but Brad doesn't really like it. I wont tell you where i got it from or how much it cost until I get some feed back. Just leave me a comment saying "stay" or "go" and you can be anonymous if you wish. When the people have spoke the necessary actions will be taken. Please don't hold back, you wont offend anyone! Thanks, hope to hear from you soon xx

Getting out of the stress well...

I'm loving retro meets shab chic

What good does it do to stress out? I have spent the morning in a dull mood because I cant seem to access an online test i need to complete today for a uni subject (this is after i completed it last week to be organised and then a simple click of the mouse and my work disappeared so i have to do it again!)

I cannot get onto my coordinator and life just seemed all too stressful there for a moment. Until, i got a friendly email saying i can do the test tomorrow...why waste the energy stressing!!! It cant be good for my health!

Instead i choose to ponder on these things and forget about life's stresses for a little while.

What gets you out of the stress well?
