This is the day.

Today has finally come!

We are celebrating the opening of our second jewellery store today, and it is exciting times as we expand into gifts and homeware too. So today I am in celebration mode! Hours of hard work pays off and I cannot wait to see the look on people's faces as they enter our little wonderland.

I made sure I scheduled in lovely posts to keep you busy, as I don't have much time to sit and plan posts now a days. I will be back in full swing soon, but in the meantime check out this captivating photographer Yvette, whose work I just can't get enough off! Absolutely stunning!

Hello there.

Just thought I would say a quick hello everyone, as this isn't going to be a long post. But I didn't want to leave you all with nothing to look at for the day. I have some exciting news to be shared soon too, so keep your eyes peeled :)

Record your journey.

If you have been following my blog for a while, you would know I love notebooks! I am a frantic list maker and love knowing what to do and what has been done. Now I know this isn't exactly a notebook to write in, but I just adore this handmade scrapbook journal by Chelsea. So sweet how the things you would normally throw away after a big trip, she used as memorabilia and created a beautiful journal of her trip.

I love (not) rainy days.

Ok, so I will be putting a bit of a spin on this Much Love Monday.

I love (not) rainy days.
There's nothing like a beautiful crisp winter's day, not cloud in the sky and the sun finally bringing some warmth to your bones. This last week we have had the most beautiful weather, that I want to leap with joy! I am just hoping this will keep up till we manage to make our way down to the snow in a couple of weeks. Funny how weather can affect your mood?

If your anywhere where it is currently winter, may you have some lovely (not) rainy days ahead of you :)

One day at a time.

This is definitely my motto for the day: One day at a time.

Sometimes I have to remind myself of this, otherwise I try to fit forty-eight hours into one day. I've tried to take a few steps back and make sure I still get some time just to relax, so tonight I'm snuggling under the warm blankets, putting on a DVD and spending some good quality time with our family :)

Home to adore.

So many lovely homes to look at!
But this one in particular caught my fancy. I love the colour coordination in her rooms, and the house as a whole fits in so well together (and especially the retro blender!). So today, I am daydreaming about a house :)

Happy weekend everyone!

Still Life.

Don't you just love stepping back and taking a deep breath? At the moment that is all I want to do. Oh and sleep of coarse! Tonight was beautiful though. I came upstairs after work, grabbed my Frankie and laxed out on the beanbag in front of the fire.

Thank you Frankie for a good read. Thank you husband for the fire. Thank you Emma for dinner. Thank you Charlie for having your third birthday today so that I could have Barbie birthday cake. A good day I must say!
