Silver Leaf Mirror Giveaway by Juliette's Interiors
I'm so pleased to announce a giveaway of a 97cm silver Camilla's Hat® mirror, worth £449.87, courtesy of Juliette's Interiors.
Framed in a whirlwind of silver leaf, a 34 cm diameter bevelled glass mirror, has been dubbed 'Camilla's Hat®' due to its striking resemblance to the flatteringly feathered hat designed by Phillip Treacy and worn by Camilla Parker-Bowles on the day she married HRH The Prince of Wales.
Juliette's Interiors was started in 2005 by Juliette with the aim of producing well priced, design led and above all, seductive, show stopping luxury furniture and mirrors which you will be proud of showing off. Each gorgeous item can be tailor finished to you and your home by customizing the size, finish or fabric giving you a unique piece to treasure. They also sell a host of gorgeous home accessories from stunning ruffled bed throws to sleek chic faux crocodile bottle holders.
To enter the Juliette's Interior giveaway, leave a comment below letting me know 'Where you would hang the Camilla's Hat® mirror' if you won. The giveaway ends on Tuesday, June 14th at 10pm (BST) and I will randomly select and announce a winner on Wednesday, June 15th.

This week I'm grateful for... Monday night drinking
Aha! Blogger is back!
So, where was I? That's right...
I can’t remember the last time I went out drinking on a Monday night… maybe I’ve never done it? Monday drinking just seems so… committed. And foolhardy. That’s certainly how I felt when I woke up on Tuesday and realised that I’d somehow come down with a terrible virus overnight. Isn’t it funny how that happens? And then the realisation: oh my freakin’ god, it’s only Tuesday.
Of course it was the crazy, social world of blogging that had me out on a school night. For the first time ever I mixed my URL with my IRL* and met a whole bunch of bloggers at the Kidspot Top 50 Bloggers** launch party. Highlight was definitely knocking back a couple of contraband ciggies in a back laneway, in the rain with Woogsy, BabyMac and Lori. Hardcore. Felt like I was eighteen again. There were so many fabulous bloggers there that I can’t mention them all, but a quick shout out to Chantelle, Kirrily, Fox in Flats, Kellie Kerri, Farmer’s Wifey, Clare, Caitlyn and, of course, that gorgeous gal PPMJ.
So, this week I’m grateful for…
124. Monday night drinking – ‘cos it’s just so great to invest in shaking things up and doing new stuff, even if you have to pay for it the next day. I actually think the majority of my hangover was mainly due to the 227 cigarette I smoked (I haven’t been a ‘smoker’ in about eight years!) and the 1768 shelled peanuts I ate at the laneway bar we washed up in. Couldn't have been those,oh, 3 wines I drank... right?
125. IRL – I’m so glad I now know some of our lovely bloggers IRL.
126. URL – But I’m equally as glad that I still love them (and so many, many more) in URL.
So, what's making you smile today? Add your I'm Grateful For post to the list below (and please, we love you, but it really does matter that your post is a Grateful one and not just a random), add the button (grab the code from my sidebar and paste it into your post) andpretty-please add a link back to me. Then pop over to visit other bloggers who are spreading a little sunshine.
Happy weekend to you!
* This rather magical term was coined by MultipleMum at the AMB. Love your work, Aunty Coo.

Felt cakes
This week on "Wonderful World of Etsy" I bring you a selection of the cutest felt cakes and sweet treats from Milkfly. My mouth waters looking at the banana cream pie with its thinly slices of banana and peaks of cream and the nutty coated chocolates look so real! Pure genius! I would love to get some of these for Molly's new playhouse!
Have a sweet day!
