Whoa Baby, What a Day!

Yesterday was Jody's Baby Shower which took place at her beautiful new house. It was such a wonderful day. I am sure you can see by these pictures it was a delight. Everyone had a great day and with friends & family. 

She wanted a navy theme but nothing over the top. We cut some of our Kirkwood in Navy fabric for the outdoor table runner. Lot's of fresh food and flowers (and champagne).

 I am so excited for Jody, only 4 weeks to go! She has waited so long for this baby!

Happy Monday.Simone xx

Project Day: Opshop Blanket Quick Pillow

Geez I loved visiting my local opshop. I had not been for so so long. I have been so busy I forgot the thrill I get. 

I picked up this beautiful crochet blanket for a few dollars last week. 

Here's how I made a quick pom pom pillow from it.

Grab some pom pom trim and an insert (mine was from the ikea bargain bin).

Just fold the blanket in half and sew down two sides.

Add some pom pom trim.

Attach 2 buttons at the base so you can pull them through the crochet holes (to hold the insert in).

This took me about 20 minutes. Cost about $8.

Have a great weekend everyone.

The Chair found a home!

My gorgeous little chair covered in cockatoo fabric found a home at the piano in the new house. It looks so happy and I love it! Have a great weekend everyone Simone and Jody x x x 

Sunrise Sunset

I had a fabulous weekend. I wondered how I was going to sum it up on the blog this morning.

 I decided on using two words and two pictures (which I snapped over the weekend, love my iphone). 

And they are: Sunrise, Sunset. 

Hope that gives you an idea of what I got up to.

Happy Monday.

PS: Yes, the second photo is sunset! I am not that bad.

Project Day: Customer Creations

It's Friday again which means customer creations time.

Can you believe Elisha found these chairs on the side of the road ready for the dump!

She rescued them, got online with us and purchased some Waverly Ellis fabric in turquoise.

What a fantastic result.

And secondly Lynette from FANON Design covered a lamp in our famous Cockatoo fabric, and she selected Turquoise as well.

The lamp is for sale in their store if you want to check it out HERE.

If you have sent in your creation and it hasn't been published yet don't worry, it will. We have so many to get through so your patience would be well appreciated.

Have a great weekend and keep creating!

Simone & Jody.

Room Please?

Spare room. I know you are out there. Please make yourself known. The fabric studio is full upstairs so now we resort to storing new arrivals downstairs. 

Help me Rhonda! 

Over 100 rolls of oilcloth arrived this week and we are trying to squeeze them all in! Hope your week is going along nicely. xx
