Anzac Day




They shall grow not old
as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them......


Lest we forget

Happy Easter


Happy Easter Blogging Friends !

If you are not from Australia you might be wondering what these funny little chocolate creatures are.

They are Australian marsupials , the one on the left is a 'Wombat' & the the other is a 'Bilby'.
Sadly the timid little Bilby is becoming extinct , thousands of these eggs are made every Easter to highlight their plight.
They are made of delicous Aust. Pink Lady Chocolate 
( I think gives Lindt a run for its money ) 

Our 4 year old son was delighted with them this morning !


Mummy & Daddy were equally excited with these ones chosen by the kids 



Of course no easter would be complete without  a Lindt chocolate bunny

Laundry Makeover Sneak Peek !


Towards the end of renovations , the budget has worn a bit thin. 
So I decided so I can still purchase my "pretties" I would cut out the 
tradies where possible. 
Goodbye Painters !
Hello Paintbrush For Me.



I was going to paint the laundry this colour & wallpaper one wall.
But after coming home 
with paint I thought was the perfect match (but alas wasnt ) , I had a change of mind.
I had painted a large patch on the wall by this time , I realised
even though the laundry is very light , painting a colour & wallpapering was going 
to make it appear smaller...... 
 So out came the white paint
It looks fresh and light , I am using accessories to add colour.



Makes it easy to change the look too, when the fancy takes me.
Just a few more details to go......

We will be ready for the reveal next week !
