purely for procrastionation purposes...

these are some chair covers i made for our dining suite. The chairs were beautiful but a little hard for me...and had the potential to get scratched easily...so i found this material in Launceston while honeymooning. I bought it without knowing what it would be used for and then when i decided, had to order more over the Internet. this post comes to you while i procrastinate from finishing my tax. It has driven me spare this morning and I'll probably be forced to eat copious amounts of chocolate treats this afternoon to recover...

ummm

ok so blogger is having a moment of it's own and highlighting random words and underlining posts! :)

Saturday afternoon fun

Because Jek and Dave held a secret wedding we couldn't give Jek a hen's night before the party...otherwise people would have got suspicious! so Yesterday we held her a bridal shower! pass the passel, bridal bingo and plenty of cookies and shortbread to sink a battle ship! the wind was a little annoying but the rain held off and we enjoyed the warmth out in the beautiful wellington square.

Eggcellent

The other night we went shopping and bought some eggs...and when i opened the pack up to see if they were all whole...i saw THIS!!!!

I squeeled with laughter! I was reminded of these little faces tonight when i again opened the packet to start baking for Jek's bridal shower tomorrow, so it's a late night post as i wait for the treats to cool!

other wedding fun!

For our wedding in July I got to do some sewing and badge making! i showed you the badges but didn't post any photos of the sewing! I even got someone else to help me with the bunting because i knew she'd do a great job! it was lots of fun putting the yummy truffles in the little bags! We even got to sample one or two!

food and snow in tasmania





we enjoyed seeing snow in Tasmania, for me it was the first time i had EVER seen snow in the wild...you know not at a ice skating rink or mount Theberton! :)
and we enjoyed lots of different lovely foods at the many cafes that were in and around Hobart. truly wonderful.

and Love and Clutter was my favorite shop from Hobart, it had lots of pretty hand made things in it. Babies clothes, mobiles, hair clips badges brooches, scarves. I wanted to take everything home...and Sez you would have loved it too!
