New items and an auction!

So I finish tafe for the semester in 1 week! Im so excited to get a whole month off and plan to do up a few more pieces over the holidays. BUT in all my assignment procrastination I have managed to finish off a view items that have been half done! (YAY!!)

So, here are a few more items for sale:

Bubblegum Pink Bentwood Chair - $90

White & Chalkboard Side Table - $130

Pink Bunting - $25

I have also donated the black and white lamp that was for sale to a charity fundraiser being held tonight for Cystic Fibrosis. Fingers crossed someone (or more then one) likes it and buys it!

Flowers

Back in high school (and even soon after I left) I was contemplating getting into floristry. I have always loved flowers and thought it would be so amazing working with them everyday. For some reason though I never did do the floristry course I had my eye on. 

I went through a stage (a good 2 or 3 year stage) of buying fresh flowers from the markets every week. It was the main reason I went to the markets. I always bought them just before leaving so I could spend the whole time deciding on what I wanted to get. 

I have been day dreaming lately about the flowers I want in our garden when we finish our renovations. Ranunculus and Hydrangea are my favourites and on top of my list of flowers to plant. I can't wait - no more having to go to the markets to buy them!

 

Kitchen Love

So, Jonny and I are currently getting plans drawn up to renovate our house and extend it. Im so excited that I don't let myself look at anything house related before bed because otherwise I can't get to sleep because I have way too  many idea's in my head!

The new kitchen it the thing I am most excited about. It will be moved to the front of our house and open up onto our deck. There are so many beautiful kitchen designs out there but I'm going to stick with a classic white - much like the below pics.

Once this kitchen goes in I think I will be having plenty of high tea's and dinner parties!

History Lesson

So I am currently researching Queen Anne furniture for a TAFE assignment. In particular Queen Anne wingback chairs. I have always been a fan of Queen Anne furniture. Its all about the legs - they are just so beautifully shaped!

I have a wingback that I'm wanting to do up but need to wait until I think I can tackle it with good results. They look good in just about any fabric too, and I'm too indecisive as to what I want to cover it in. Im thinking something funky like below - in a velvet!

In other news I went to an Auction just up the road. It was a BEAUTIFUL house that was built in the late 1800's! I would do anything to have that house - it went for 1.3 million!
