Spotlight Christmas 2012 Launch

last Wednesday night i attended the 2012 Spotlight Christmas launch at Sun Studios! I love xmas decorating & really enjoyed some of their DIY suggestions like the knitted letters & fabric wreath (which would be really easy to make!) below - i also loved their rustic look with gorgeous linen table cloths, brown paper & hand stitched ornaments! the xmas range will be in stores in September!
Here were some of my favourite bits & pieces...

Coffee Table +Flowers

Lets finish the week off with a visual flower feast!!
Theres something so swoon worthy about a coffee table with gorgeous looking books & some divine flowers. 
Throw in some crystals & scented candles & you have the coffee table jackpot! 
A weekend project perhaps? Head to the flower markets, gather some of your favourite books & have a play with your coffee table!

Long time readers will know i am a sucker for xmas decorating!
So i am quite excited that im off to the Spotlight Christmas 2012 launch tonight!
Wonder what goodies there will be! Is anyone else going?

One week till France & Italy!

I must be boring the crap out of you all with my holiday countdown...sorry :)
(there are just far to many delicious 'French' images around to not post them!)
Our flight is at 7:30am which means its going to be a very early morning!

Tuscan Wedding Perfection

I am all kinds of in love with this Tuscan wedding (slight wedding envy going on here!) 
It was featured on Once Wed & shot by Jose Villa - have you seen anything as perfect?! sigh.... 
(incase you were wondering, the venue is Castello di Vicarello & her dress is Jenny Packham 'Marie Louise' - i die!)

Loving - Steel Doors

Currently obsessing over black steel doors. They aren't that common in Australian architecture, in my 8 years of work I've only ever put them in once! Not that cheap either {compared to the standard timber or aluminium}.... but i can't wait for the opportunity to use them again!

Posting from an i pad? ***UPDATE!

***UPDATE***
The guy at the mac shop told me that you can't load photos onto blogger on an iPad as blogger is a flash supported program!? Is this true??? if that was the case you'd think it'd mean you also couldnt fire blogs created on blogger (which i have no problem with!)

Today I'm putting the call put for some bloggy help!
Last time i was overseas i tried to post from my i pad but i found i couldn't load images? The 'choose image' button was pale grey meaning it wouldn't let me click on it - same goes for uploading pics to Facebook? Can anyone enlighten me? We will be away for 6 weeks on our honeymoon & ill have my i pad with me - might be nice to share a piccie or two from our trip once in a while!

Diptyque


Im a bit of a sucker for Diptyque  - i think its the divine typography on the labels!
Ive discovered the store id just down the road from our hotel in Paris - their candles & fragrance are definitely a bit of a splurge!
 I think i may have to make one my Parisian souvenir! 
There is just something about a Diptyque candle that makes it surrounds look so gorgeous - don't you think?
