I went to the Fair....

I have just returned from the Melbourne Gift Fair. My mission was to source and purchase enough beautiful furniture and housewares for my 2 display homes. My mission was VERY,VERY successful and included these two very cute owls who decided to fly home with me..I had a hoot of a time!

now all I have to do is wait for all my boxes to arrive...hey !!!!

Confessions of a bad blogger

Just a note to let you know I have not...

really packed my bags and disappeared....

or drafted away...


I have been really,really busy, chained to my desk and a building site
working really hard...

So I have to Confess by the end of the day my blogging MoJo has left me and I have become a reclusive Blogger...

so these flowers are for you, thank you for spotting by

save a spot on the lounge for me ~ I would love to hear all your news!

I will return soon, with my MoJo
