Supporting those less fortunate than us!

Absolutely love this idea of selling beautifully hand crafted homewares from http://www.oxfamshop.org.au/ in support of the workers in the developing world and raising awareness of their plight...which in turn improves working conditions for them.

I adore these cushions!!

Before and During

Its taken awhile, but i've finally found my very first photo of the 'house' before we started reno's. Here she is...in all her beauty....
 And here she is mid-way through extension... Changed windows, trimmed plants, taken out gardens, put in new gardens, new front door, new roof, etc etc..
We are getting there slowly! Builders have finished there work, just us fitting it all out now. Hubby started today on tiling the bathroom and laundry. Fingers crossed we'll be moving in early 2011.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas with the ones you love.

Weekend tomorrow!

This week has flown! Between normal family life, this week has been full of ordering, phone calls and decisions for our extension. We have timber flooring being delivered whenever the rain stops, cornice was delivered today, and skirting and architrave is being delivered Monday. So its all happening. Itching to get back into our house!!

I'm lazy this week and haven't uploaded current photos of the house, will do that over the weekend.

Just been lurking on this website... http://www.abeachcottage.com/ i just adore her decorating style ♥
