Another year, another simple party by a time poor mum. Rather than invest in flowers this year, we opted for much loved balloons ("boons"). Ivory, blush, peach, coral, grey. Colours inspired by the book <i><a href="http://www.littlemelittleyou.com.au/Bonjour-Camille-by-Felipe-Cano-p782.htm">Bonjour Camille</a>. </i>The flowers strung over the table were all I could find in my garden (they're probably weeds).<i> </i>I had the wonderfully talented illustrator and wordsmith, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/tuesdaymourning">Mer Mag</a> draw me a custom image and used it to make a mini book invitation. I cut out the same image and used it as a cake topper on one of the 2 cakes I made from 3 packet mixes. I threw an IKEA curtain over the fold-up table as a tablecloth, made a fruit salad covered with yoghurt, berries and honey; a green salad; graciously accepted the nannas contributions of sandwiches and cat cookies. I pulled our old cot out of the garage and this as used to hold gifts and handbags and Elsa wigs! We tied balloons onto it and each kid picked a colour and drew a face on their balloon. We brought down the kettle and sang Happy Birthday in the sunshine with cake and tea.<br />

<b>Before</b><br />
Mr and I have been in this house for 3.5 years. My priority was the bathroom. Somehow we managed to to start on the exterior: Paving the driveway, re-cladding the house, new front door, gates and new turf and plants. Meanwhile the toilet leaked, the shower curtain was sticking to us as we showered in the draughty room, the vanity shelves and drawers had collapsed from water damage, Mr couldn't see himself on the mirror (it was positioned low under the window) and well, that pink whale spout and rambling rose feature tile!<br />
<br />

<b>The Brief</b><br />
I was after a 'vintage modern' bathroom. I wanted it to be modest and in keeping with the era of the home (50s).<br />
<br />
<b>The Plan (& Source List)</b><br />
We had to change the layout as the mirror had to be higher. We had no storage previously so we wanted lots of it. We had little paper cut outs of each element and did every possible layout scenario - then at the last minute we changed our mind again. We joined the separate toilet with the main bathroom. I wanted the bath to have breathing space.<br />

When my favourite blog for all things lovely for little ones called to ask me to photograph campaign images for their new store, I jumped at the chance! <a href="http://littlegatherer.com/" target="_blank">Little Gatherer</a> launched <a href="http://www.thegatheredstore.com/" target="_blank">The Gathered Store</a> just before Christmas <a href="http://littlegatherer.com/shop/introducing-gathered-store%E2%80%A6-0" target="_blank">here</a> and the Telkiddo bags made super cute Santa sacks. The images created were made into banners for their facebook page and webstore and also as product images, instagram posts and lots, lots more.</div>

These images were the result. Thanks to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/MyFriendFredandCo#" target="_blank">My Friend Fred</a> for the beautiful tent frame. I have since spotted the images I created in Issue 63 of <a href="http://www.frankie.com.au/past-issues/issue-63" target="_blank">Frankie </a>in the kids directory and on the Homely Creatures <a href="http://www.homelycreatures.com.au/" target="_blank">homepage</a>.<br />

I have been lucky enough to work with Jade's beautiful products twice to date. I shared some images <a href="http://concretehoney.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/a-sweet-collaboration.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://concretehoney.blogspot.com.au/2014/08/garlands-clouds.html" target="_blank">here</a> a little while ago. Her shop <a href="http://sofofo.com.au/" target="_blank">Sofofo</a>, stocks the most exquisite dolls and decor for little ones. Besides sharing on social media, here are how some of my images were used on Sofofo's website.<br />

This is what my room still looks like now, but a full makeover is in the works. We are waiting on some cladding to be delivered and then we can strip, paint, paint some more and make it pretty.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-1654800097608235582014-12-24T22:14:00.002+11:002015-01-04T15:39:08.877+11:00Christmas Eve<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This year the Christmas prep was a bit (as in, a lot) last minute for me. But thanks to <a href="https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/FeltFoxes" target="_blank">Felt Foxes</a> (garland), the husbo (tree) and <a href="http://www.grahambrown.com.au/" target="_blank">Graham & Brown</a> (the wallpaper used for the gift wrapping and taped in a strip on the wall to hold xmas cards within its gilded frames) - I got there in the end. Oh and I used a Kikki K stamp set to add names to gifts which hopefully saves the-gift tag-fell-of-confusion on the day.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-47768981525237689702014-11-12T06:00:00.000+11:002015-01-16T18:36:04.170+11:00Christmas Wishlist Blog Hop<div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1415703561602_2630" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Segoe UI', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">

When <a href="http://www.merinobabyclothing.com.au/" target="_blank">Merino Baby</a> invited me to try some of their gorgeous products I couldn't wait to pop them on Piper. I like the classic colours and the fact that the wool is so fine and soft on her skin and you can just throw them in the wash and they come out good as new.<br />
<br />
The lovely thing about wool is that its warm in winter and cool in summer and because the fabric is breathable the bubs won't overheat in her sleep suit at night or when she's running around at kindy during the day.<br />
<br />
14 month old Piper road tested the <a href="http://www.merinobabyclothing.com.au/products/dresses" target="_blank">navy dress</a> and <a href="http://www.merinobabyclothing.com.au/products/bodysuits-short-sleeve" target="_blank">short sleeves bodysui</a>t in grey/navy (both in 18-24 months), both of which she models above (bless her little heart) and the <a href="http://www.merinobabyclothing.com.au/products/sleeping-bags-lined" target="_blank">single layer sleeping bag</a> in grey (12-24 months). It's hard to pick a favourite but I think it's the body suit because its so soft and not too tight so still looks good tucked into shorts. I've also had trouble finding a sleep suit in a size long enough for her (Piper hates sleeping under covers) so I was excited this one came our way.<br />
<br />
These would make a beautiful gift for overseas friends are they are made from 100% Australian wool and they have a subtle little embroidered kangaroo on every item.<br />

The lovely Sam from <a href="http://www.dunnewithstyle.com/" target="_blank">Dunne with Style</a> invited me among other creatives to contribute to issue 4 of <a href="http://sweetm.ag/" target="_blank">Sweet mag</a>. Sweet. This issue was 'for the boys' so this was my gentle hint at a teepee/Indian theme, featuring feather cupcake & gift toppers, <a href="http://www.lovemae.com.au/" target="_blank">Love Mae</a> wall wolf wall decal which I have loved since forever and a bow and arrow cake. My colors were pale green and grey. Boyish but still gentle and pretty.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-45509078524373602902014-08-30T22:56:00.001+10:002014-08-30T22:56:24.469+10:00Piper's 1st Birthday Party<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I was remarkably relaxed about Piper's birthday. Perhaps because she's too young to give feedback. I think limiting it to family only helped a lot as BYO coffees and a plate of muffins would kept everyone happy, so the pressure was off. I had wanted to make her a flower crown and dress her in a little not-too-pretty romper. I wanted to make a dream catcher with scraps of white lace and orchids. I wanted edible flowers in the salad and atop cup cakes. I wanted to finish renovating the exterior of the house and blah blah blah, the list goes on. But in the end, we can only do what we can do. </div>

I work long hours and as it all-too-often happens, time caught up to me and energy was lost to me, so I had to pare back my plans. Thanks to a <a href="http://www.squeakandsquirrel.com.au/" target="_blank">beautiful friend</a> (heartfelt thanks must go to Elizabeth for the beautiful cake bunting and party hat); a party dress purchased on line (and on-sale); a Saturday morning at the markets; an afternoon of baking; and an evening of printing and snipping - a beautiful sunny day was created for our beautiful girl.</div>

Once I decided on the adorable <a href="http://www.etsy.com/au/shop/KelliMurrayArt" target="_blank">Kelli Murray</a> invitations (delivered by hand or left on doorsteps and tied with fine gold thread and sweetpeas), I had the basis of my colours (creamy/muted pretty) and cuteness. That little owl's face, I just loved. So she was cut out and pasted on straws and sat in little quilted preserving jars awaiting ginger cordial. The tee pee straws were made for sipping sparkling water from mini bottles. A dispenser for cordial and pretty paper cups and plates for the kids followed. Making only a large salad I delegated the food duties, buying quiches and taking up Piper's nan on her offer to make sandwiches.</div>

Mr took the bubs for a walk the day before so I could bake a blood orange cake (that's how I got the pink coloured icing - I was after white but embraced my mistake) and a choc-vanilla layer cake (this one was from packets) topped with fresh flowers with the left over batter made a little teepee cake for Piper's 'smash-cake'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I don't have drawer fulls of plates and cutlery, napkins (Fine Little Day from <a href="http://www.larkstore.com.au/" target="_blank">Lark</a>) were used for quiche and cake and vintage saucers and cake forks for salad. Paper cups (left over from our wedding & labelled thanks to a sheet of sticker paper from my mum's office) served us well for tea and coffee.</div>
<br />
I thought our babe would be too young to understand, but she soaked it all in and knew it was her special day. There was a little bit of magic in the air.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-14667916347038794092014-08-10T21:09:00.001+10:002014-08-10T21:09:25.149+10:00Garlands & Clouds<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I was so excited about Mother's Day. It felt like Christmas used to feel when like when I was little. I bought myself a mug 'from' Piper. I can't wait for her little handmade Mother's Day stall purchases in year to come. On Sunday, Mr bought me a large coffee and a gorgeous bunch of blooms. I made a mini layer cake with berries from the bunch.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-31733831120883277952014-06-01T20:08:00.000+10:002014-06-01T20:08:05.306+10:00Closer to Nature GIVEAWAY<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Usually I find out useful things exist once I no longer require them, but the <a href="http://www.closertonaturebaby.com.au/" target="_blank">Perfect Prep </a>machine came into my life at exactly the right time. So easy and quick to use - it makes a bottle in less than 2 minutes at the perfect temperature and water level. With the little miss waking at night due to her teething and wanting a bottle in an instant, so pressing a button and having a bottle done in no time has been fabulous. We used to have boiled cooled water in the fridge and then have to wait for what seemed forever for the kettle to boil, then we would tip in and out cool and warm water until we reached the about the right temp and water level, then test it and ask each other, "is it warm enough?" "should we put it in the bottle warmer?" "Do you think its too hot?" "Should we run it under cold water?" Not what you want to be doing at 3am. No need any more. Oh, and it filters the water too!</div>

One of my lovely followers asked me for help with her little boy's room. He was moving into a big bed and she was thinking she might like 'the woods' theme, but didn't want to the room to be too babyish, too grown up or too obviously themed. This was the room design board I provided along with lots of gorgeous examples of how to put the room together (with some alternate suggestions for some items) and my styling tips one-pager of things to keep in mind when pulling it all together.N I C O L Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06931006707198594818noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5413245330022819228.post-69738866393452696702014-05-09T20:21:00.000+10:002014-05-09T20:30:01.325+10:00Styling for Me We Design<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
