I have been busy the last couple of weeks sewing up a storm and adding heaps of new goodies to my shop. Here's a peek at some of the pillows that I made...heaps of pretty roses fabrics!
My very talented sister-in-law Maryline has been busy too...crocheting away! She has just finished this gorgeous gorgeous rug with beautiful big pink roses. It is available in my shop. She is completely self-taught and does such a fantastic job! I really don't know how she does it!!
Love these roses!! They are just gorgeous!!
At the fair an elderly lady was selling off all of her jewellery. Maryline got the most spectacular pink rhinestone necklace you have ever seen. I will try to get a pic for you...it is in pristine vintage condition and just so so beautiful!! Anyway, here is one that I got from that same lady. I love the way it looks with the pink rhinestone necklace that I already had.
A beautiful vintage rhinestone brooch...I just love the big stone in the middle (wish it was real!)
I also got this lovely pink rosey hat. I just loved the colour and think it looks sweet on my mannequin.
Here is my lovely mannequin (Coco!) in her updated outfit. I think she looks beautiful with all of her jewellery & pink flowery hat on!!
Well, today it's been raining here AGAIN! It's very wet!! I was planning on taking some lovely spring pics to share with you all...but this is all I could get today!
Looking a bit gloomy in our outdoor area....but I still love coming out here and checking out the view of the rain!
On the weekend we dug out the garden beds next to our house, added in some new soil and then we will be planting some new plants soon. I plan on having heaps of lavender plants, along with some pretty flowers (most likely geraniums because they don't need much watering...although lately that doesn't seem to be an issue here!) Today our new garden is just a mud puddle!
The kids love gardening too. On the weekend they both potted up their own plants. The one on the left is Sarah's and will get pretty pink flowers (hopefully!) The one on the right is Mitchell's and it is a cutting that he took from our Gardenia plant. He saw on a gardening show that you could grow them from cuttings...so fingers crossed it will work!! So far so good!
Well, that's all for now. I promise to take some pics of all my treasures found on the weekend very soon...heaps more to show you!
Hope you are all well!! Kathy xo

Kathy!!! What beautiful rhinestone jewellery!!!! Oh and your garden, sure don't have to worry about watering in the plants do you?! Hope Mitchell's gardenia takes off, they have the best smell don't they.
Love your new shop items, you've been so busy!!!! Maryline's crochet work is amazing. I don't know how she has the patience to do them.
Your patio area is so beautiful, it is the best place to sit any time of year, and with your view I think I would sleep out there too!!!
I just tagged you for the name game!! Come check out my blog for details
Kathy,
The pillows are gorgeous and Maryline's crochet piece is beautiful! I am sure they will fly out the door of your shop.
I love all the rhinestone jewelry and Coco looks devine.
It seems funny to me that you and Natasha are celebrating spring and getting ready to plant flowers, while we are going into Fall here.
Love your patio!

Your outdoor area is stunning!!!! I would never want to step inside!! And you are so talented-your cushions are beautiful!
Gorgeous Kathy! I love your jewelry and your mannequin looks quite divine! Love your sisters rug. Now when you say rug... is it like a rug for the floor like we say in America?? Or is it meant like a blanket??? Just curious ;)
Your pink rhinestone necklace on the bottom looks just like the blue one I posted on my blog.

Hi Girls,
Thanks for all your lovely comments!
With the crochet rug Heather, it is meant to be used as a throw or a blanket on your bed or couch...don't think it would do too well on the floor!
Kathy :)

Wow, i love the look of your outdoor area. Wow, we are landscaping at the moment and desinging our back area. I hope it looks half as pretty as yours. What a great space. I bet you spend heaps of your time out there. Spring is such a lovely time for gardening. We are enjoying redoing ours as a family and it is so nice working together at something we can all enjoy. Thanks for sharing those beautiful pics, i feel inspired. So thanks hon. Ali oxoxo
