Dear Santa...

I guess it is a bit early to hang a pair of Christmas stockings at the end of ones bed, hoping that Santa will fill it with all manner of delightful things. But then again that is not why I hang them there in the first place...


I do so because I like to think they bring a bit of Holiday cheer into the room. And who knows, maybe something nice will show up in the stockings come Christmas morning.


But these stockings are not supposed to hang here. After finally having finished the pair, that has been a long time in the making, they are off to the Basnes Christmas Fair (along with a few others).


Meanwhile... Dear Santa, a bit more daylight would not go astray, so that it were indeed possible to take a decent photo...

Wedding Preparations

As I write this post I am preparing 8 large rectangular tubs with chicken wire inset into each tub ready for all the flowers I will be cutting from our garden very early tomorrow morning.  After the big harvest I will be loading the tubs into my car for the journey down to Northern NSW tomorrow ready for my cousin's big Wedding this coming Saturday.  We will be filling approximately 60 mismatched vintage vases with Dahlias, Zinnias, Daisies, Calendulas and Foxgloves all of which I have grown here at home in our garden.  You should see the Foxgloves.  They are amazing.  I will try to take some photos of them before they are all cut tomorrow. 

Here's a snapshot of some of the gifts wrapped at Black & Spiro today which have been purchased for Ben & Phoebe.  They were so kind to mention that B&S is their favourite store on their wedding invite and I must say they have some divine gifts coming their way!!

I won't be back here now until early-mid next week.  Hope you all have a great weekend!!
