Heavenly White Blooms

 

You can't go wrong with white flowers.
My first choice when buying flowers for the house is white lillies.
They are big and impressive, long lasting and beautifully perfumed.
White flowers are a perfect choice for any occassion.

Country Hideaway

 

I love the bright, breezy feeling of this country retreat.

It is full of natural light with sheer, white curtains to filter the sunlight.

The chalky palette of white and creams is natural, warm and inviting

The alfresco dining area has a lovely airy feel to it 

and that pool looks very inviting on a hot summer's day!

Tennis Anyone?

Game, Set, Match!

Fancy a game of tennis anyone? 

With the Australian Open generating lots of tennis fever around town I am looking forward to a few relaxed evenings watching the world's greatest players

sweat it out in the summer heat!

These vintage style tennis outfits are just my style - very Polo Ralph Lauren!

I was brought up playing tennis. My family always had a social game on Sunday afternoons. I also played for my school team as well as the local tennis club during various stages of my life. The great thing about tennis is that it's a sport that you can play your whole life. My husband is also a tennis player and although we get a bit competitive on the court we still have a lot of fun playing!

Picnic In The Sun

 

 

A long and lazy weekend

was spent bike riding fishing, picnicing, 

napping under shady trees and taking leisurely strolls.

There was homemade lemonade

rolls filled with camenbert and champagne ham

and home baked choc chip cookies.

All in all a lovely weekend making the most

of what Mother Nature has to offer!

I hope you had a perfect weekend too!

A Good Night's Sleep

 

 

 

Lately I have had so much on my mind ~
a new house, holidays, visitors, parties, fun projects, the list goes on!

I am in a constant state of excitement
and have had trouble sleeping.
So I am really looking forward to a good night's sleep.

Anyone of these heavenly bedrooms would do the trick!
