Now seriously, would the sugar taste sweeter? Sugar rush! Available at Love, Loans + Linen. They do have an online store but these don’t seem to be stocked there.

Makes a lovely sight at weddings don’t you think?

Discover :: Like a Forest in the Home

❤

Taken away by Shannon’s post, I went off in search of more ‘forests’ in the home. I loved the raw look of the branches, laden with decorative items.

Don’t you feel like getting some bare branches into the house now?

discover :: sleep, restful sleep

❤

With two really active children, I don’t get half as much sleep as I’d like to. I often find myself needing a power boost, minutes after I get out of bed. It isn’t easy, it isn’t always fun. But gee, I wish I could get more shut eye! Maybe in a million years or something I would. And if I was single, I’d love to have the bedroom above. Pretty please?

In any case, these bedrooms are so beautifully done up, I sure hope their lucky owners spend enough time there to do them justice! And yes, I am green with envy.

❤

And not forgetting the kids…

DIY Weekends :: Faux Porcelain

The look for less. A pretty neat trick I must say. Talk about a creative use of puffy paint. Make your own faux porcelain vases from ordinary glass bottles. I’d love to see your end results for this one!

DIY Weekends :: Rainbow Cakes

I guess this would be a good time to bake something. After the delish looking cupcakes from earlier this week. How about trying your hand at a rainbow cake?
