Console me

I am totally obsessed with a good console set up!

My one pet hate in our apartment is that they didn't put a power point near the front door.

 Meaning we can't have a lamp on our entry console table. 

I barely ever use the down lights, I'm a real lamp/ambient lighting girl - so candles it is at the front door!

Birthday wish list!

Its my birthday in 2 weeks!

With my birthday being so close to xmas i can usually not think of anything i want (or need!)

Have managed to come up with a few this year though :)

A giant champagne cork stool from Ivy House (so cool!)

Amethyst necklace from A-thread (amethyst is my birthstone - it was meant to be!)

These amazing Frends Headphones - Layla in Rose gold thanks!

Samantha Wills messenger bangle in gold (i love the inscription on it!)

Doesn't this just make you want to have some kind of backyard shindig?
