faux boiserie (and giveaway winner)

Hi, 

So glad its the weekend!

Even though we are still in school holiday mode here, the weekends always seem so much easier and casual!

This is a faux boiserie that I purchased with some of my birthday money!.. really adore it.

I have always had a 'thing' for french boiseries... I saw some amazing, real ones in antique stores in France... but too big to bring back in a suitcase!

I am still enjoying my stock that i bought last week; it is going a long way!

been dyeing some bits and pieces; a very old crotcheted piece that I came accross years ago for a couple of dollars.  Havent decided yet what i will do with it. It is very fragile...

I found lots of pretty china this week; here are just a couple of the dishes... the rest are in the dishwasher!

And a little lustreware vase I found.. so pretty...

Sam's balloon is still flying high!! 

This was the bday cake I made for him..  I actually got the flags and ribbon free a couple of months ago in a magazine.   The cake mould was only five dollars from kmart.  I mixed brown and white sugar to look like sand!

Cheeky Maisy is getting bigger! and my other cat , Weetbix, is getting used to her now.. slowly!

And onto my little giveaway!!! I know I am incredibly late with this!!!  I have had my aunt and uncle over from the UK and its been so crazy busy!!

Thankyou to everyone who entered, but the winner turned out to be;
