Friday Favourites
Happy Friday everyone - here is a bit of a look at those perfect little bottles we love to use here at our parties in Australia - some wonderful styling in these images.
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend - only four weeks to Christmas yikes - I had better hit the shops!!!
Check out my post here if you would like to know where to find these lovely little bottles!
This is mine!
And so is this!
Time for a change
I gave my little blog a face-lift yesterday. I quite like the colour change - don't you? I wish they made that background in a fabric, its so pretty. Hope you like it.
Ohh.. and watch this space I will be organising the giveaway (finally) that I have promised so long ago.
Its rain, rain and more rain for Melbourne (again) this weekend so hopefully it wont be too dull around here.
Hope you have a lovely one though...
Big thanks to Yummy Lolly who has the easiest tutorials on changing HTML codes.
Things I learned this week including that all a boy really needs is a spider
Happy 'less than a month until Christmas' to you! We did Santa letters this week and amazingly the Tsunamis couldn't think of more than 157 things to ask for this year. Their letters were each only 11 pages long. It's a Christmas Miracle.
Aside from learning that my children are as materialistic and greedy as ever, I also learned:
1. The best game in the world for little boys is catching ants and flinging them onto Golden Orb or St Andrew's spiderwebs and watching the 'pet spider' sort out his dinner. To be honest, it's also the best game in the world for little boys' mothers too - I have lost HOURS this week alone....
2. My life is not complete without a personalised wooden stamp from Love to Create. And, as it says on the box, it would "make a fantastic wedding gift" if the wedding couple had already moved into their 'forever' home because what exactly do you do with an address stamp for an address you no longer need to stamp?
3. RikRak Studio is not only the place to go for a showcase of the Beautiful and the Handmade, she is also having an AMAZING Happy Holidays giveaway that you would be nuts to miss out on... NUTS. Get over there! No wait, finish reading my post first and then get over there...!
4. I don't know how I've existed up until now without this perfect bedside lamp...
5. I hate my new "Grateful" banner but I'm too lazy to change it right now.
How was your week? Did you learn anything new to share with the group today?

I changed my button. I don't know why I didn't like the old button, but I like the new one a lot. Sorry for any trouble for those lovelies who had the banner button in their sidebar... love you! x

Glass cake stands & domes
I am planning my Christmas Winter Woodland candy table at the moment. So, I am delighted to be reviewing some glass cake stands from diverse retailer, CSN stores. They sell all kinds of wonderful products, from beautiful wardrobes to the prettiest cake stands and flan dishes.
Keep an eye out for my review that will feature either my new "Winter Woodland" Christmas cake design or my "Winter Woodland Christmas" inspired gingerbread bird house.
In the meantime, here's what I did last Christmas:
Have a sweet day!
shiny little star
I'll make you a star in my universe. You'll never have to go to work.
You'll spend every day shining your light my way.
