The Birds

As a wallpaper virgin I'm not sure I'd trust myself to put up this gorgeous photographic wallpaper from Trove. I fear some of the little birds might get their wings clipped, or attached to their beaks…..

Covet - Wall Letters

A wonderfully messy table and a jumble of letters on the wall.
I think I might like these people.

I am looking for a selection of letters in different typefaces to put on the tables for the wedding instead of table numbers. Afterwards I plan on shamelessly copying the image above.

I've found some reasonably priced ones in the children’s section in Avoca - any tips from readers on where I could get others?

I was never one who believed that letters after your name mattered.
I think I may have changed my mind.

Magnetic Personalities

Hello everybody. Sorry for not posting for such a while, I've been preoccupied with wedding plans and conundrums - how long will it take the wedding bus to get from A to B in Saturday evening traffic? How long does a dress take to get to Ireland from China?

While I've been pouring over wedding blogs my own little account was starting to turn into Dust Covet Envy (hee hee!) but I saw these little guys and had to share....

The fridge-door-opening experience just got a lot cuter with these magnets from Jordan Grace Owen.

I think they might offer some witticism as I catch their eye en route to the fridge.
"Celery again? Girl, you're taking this wedding too seriously. Live a little. There's cake on the top shelf you know"

Magnets available from Hollandsworth on etsy

Happy Christmas!

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year!

Lust : Julia Rothman

This is the start of a sometimes series of gift ideas as you all start to peel off the days on your advent calendars.

Some of you may know Julia Rothman for her wallpaper designs but thankfully she also has more portable illustrations. I particularly love this travel journal - to me it evokes a sort of mythical Victorian past where brave ladies in enormous skirts travelled the world teaching crochet to crocodiles.
