What a busy couple of weeks we have had...
Our daughter was very keen to have a barbecue before she left for her school "residential" trip (away from us for the first time, for 4 nights!) as the nice weather had begun so we arranged for her friend's family to come for the day. We had lots of yummy food and the sun was shining. I cut some pretty flowers from our garden for the table...
... but our friends also brought us a beautiful boquet.
The table was full of flowers and wonderful scents. Fun was had by all.
The following day Georgia left for her trip. Strange not to have that beautiful little lady talking incessantly while running around the house.
Later that day our friend's Clare and Mike came for a barbecue ( well you have to get them in while the weather holds out right?). They also brought along a gorgeous bouquet of Stocks...
....(and a box of chocolates which I finished off in no time!) The weather was wonderful and It was so lovely to have someone to talk with about "vintage" who loves it as much as we do. After eating the delicious food Paul had prepared we oohed and aahhhed over tablecloths and fabrics and spent some time looking at interior books. I did so enjoy the day.
I wanted to use some of my 4.5 days of "freedom" to catch up with work. I have wanted to add the "wardobe" category back to the website for some time now as some customers have been requesting it's return. I spent a day photographing some vintage clothing and another adding them to the website.
I am happy to say you can now shop the "wardrobe" section. More items will be added there as soon as our iron cools down!
We then needed to prepare for the impending birthdays... Yes, more than one. Our son's was on the 2nd, mine on the 4th and Georgias on the 5th (it was not planned, I promise). There was much shopping to be done and a cakes to be made. I made her a "garden" themed cake with mini bunting and lots of berries. The colours did come out rather garrish but the kids loved it.
Georgia wanted a sleepover but couldnt have it on her birthday as it was on a Sunday and the kids had to be at school Monday morning so generous mummy let her have them over on my birthday (Saturday) and stay till Sunday. They had fun eating outside ( yes, another barbecue) and squirting eachother with waterguns. They all snuggled up on Dillon's bed to watch a scary movie before bed
...then off to the pool the following morning. I don't mind saying I was glad that the birthdays were then over!
Back to work...Paul and I do not have a large storage facility in which to store our website stock so space is of great importance. We have decided it is time to make more room for new items and are therefore having a "SALE". ALL ORDERS UNDER £100 WILL RECIEVE A %10 DISCOUNT AND ORDERS OVER £100 WILL RECIEVE A %20 DISCOUNT. Don't forget that there is no additional charge for delivery of furniture items. This offer ends on Sunday the 19th of July.
Till next time....
