Floral Bunting - New item in the shop

Floral Bunting!! Finally a new item in the shop that I have made!! Yes it has taken me about 3 weeks to make them grabbing a couple of minutes here and here to cut the fabric the slowly slowly sewing then together then photographing and  finally listing. I hope you like it, it is good quality, being double sided, rather that the usual style with just one piece of fabric which I have sheered on the edges, this one is hemmed on all sides. I love this fabric so much I think the blue is my favourite, which is yours?  I think this bunting would be lovely for a Jubilee party or a wedding, or just to decorate the house to make it feel really springy.

Mid-Century Modern furniture with a contemporary twist

A few weeks ago (before the little Mr arrived) hubby and I were out and about on the lookout for a piece of second hand furniture to use as a changing table for the nursery.  During our search through Reading we came across a lovely man selling upcycled, restored retro vintage furniture in his studio/workshop 23 Chairs and I was in love.  Sadly the pieces were out of our price range (but only just, and they were well worth the price he was asking) so all I could do was drool over them and share them with you!

Restored dining table with pain detail on top,


 Restored sideboard with paint detail on the front, love this,


 How amazing is this? Do you love it? I think the paint work is brilliant, makes it really contemporary,


 Love the colour of this formica chest of drawers and the curved lamiante wood.

You can check out more of this guy's furniture on his website here.
Hope you are all having a good week my lovelies.
