happenings...










I have almost finished the painting and the house is pretty much ready to move our things in. A lot of my furniture is still in Pannawonica, so we are starting again in many respects. I was happy to find this table at a local oppy for only three dollars. You can't tell from this picture but it actually has the sweetest mid-century style legs and is in reasonable condition. The tablecloth was only $2.50 and it fits perfectly. Now I need some chairs... Other fabulous oppy finds include  this gorgeous grey suitcase for only $3.00 and a pretty pink tapestry to add to the collection.

The prospect of decorating a new house has had me internet shopping like a fiend. A supreme waste of time considering I can't afford to buy anything right now. At the top of my wishlist are harry bertoia replica bar stools, 100% LINEN bedding and a baby pink smeg fridge. Or maybe a mint smeg fridge. Such a tough decision. Lucky I don't ACTUALLY have to decide right now :)

  2. Setting up house is such fun . . . well i think so at least!

    Check out the hemp sheeting fabric at margaret river hemp co. I've made all my sheets from it and it's the most delicious fabric to sleep on and under. Fairly expensive to buy the sheets made, but quite reasonable if you make them yourself!

  8. Wow, what great finds - wish I had opshops like yours here is SE Qld. I really love the tablecloth and table, just gorgeous. I love following your blog and watching your piece of paradise come together. My sister lives in Tassie and they have the best opshops, came home from a visit there with a load of mismatched teacups and saucers! Can't wait to go back.
