Fancy Footwork


I think this is such a fantastic idea. You know what it's like when you've had a big night out and no taxis will stop for you and you're limping down the road in your beautiful but excruciatingly painful high heels, or you walk to work and a pair of chunky white running shoes doesn't really go with your outfit? Well Fancy Flats are very pretty little ballet flats that fold up and live in a small wallet that you can carry around in your handbag. So you can pop them on outside the bar or pop them back into your bag when you get to work. And the wallet unfolds into a bag that you can use to carry your high heels... brilliant! You can buy them at www.fancyflats.com.au

Just a reminder...


Work sweet home...

I think most of us spend enough time at work to consider it a "home" of sorts. And because any home I inhabit needs to be coated in tinsel at this time of year, it seemed necessary that my desk be Christmas-ified!

Please note the telling things about me on my desk - Totoro, green tea kit kat, endless christmas paraphenalia, a biggest loser signed poster (I love you Bob!) and my pretty angel garland I made last year! A note reminding me how to print double-sided because gosh-darn I always forget. And last but not least, my red fire-warden cap... I'm pretty sure my department feels safe knowing I'm in charge in the event of an emergency...

In other news, I'm so excited to be catching up with my favourite girl called e this weekend! A day of crafting and baking awaits...!

A+ for BigW

I really must make a trip to BigW soon. I keep spotting their outdoor products in all the mags and a visit to their website shows that they have got a lot of really cute stuff to offer.
Their outdoor accessories, like candles, gnomes, pots and ornaments, are quite lovely, but I think the best thing I've seen are these glowing white bird lights which would make a garden party that much more special.

Happy December!

Not just paper.. CREATIVE paper!

Pulp Creative Paper has captured my heart. Their Christmas items are gorgeous, like these beautiful little paper angels and the little snowflake card. All their other stock is amazing too. Wrapping, lighting, journals, gifts galore. Coveting this set of pink heart doilies.
