Sorry for the delay in posting....

 I have been rather busy, and haven't been taking many photos either!-Shocking. But, I just recently found out that we're EXPECTING!!! Yes, the stork has visited and we are just over 6weeks pregnant!

The husband and I are both over the moon about our little growing bean sprout!

Before

Here are  "before" pics of some items I have big ideas for.  I will post photos when I complete these projects, and hopefully they will look totally different! I am having tons of fun working in my craft room.

Hi Teddy!

Teddy is one of the new comers in the house! So on his arrival he was treated to a morning out in the sun, greeting all the salon clientele! He sure made the passersby smile!

Dolly kitchen dresser gets a make-over!

This dolly kitchen dresser came to us in a sorry state, full of cobwebs and dust. After a good clean off the shelves were packed with lovely goodies again like they once were, and now stands proudly next to another "Shirley Temple" doll! Notice the cute strawberry shaped tea-set?

House and Garden show

Today I went off to the  "ECR House and Garden show" at the Expo Centre. I was lucky enough to meet some of the lovely people who's blogs I follow. Please do yourselves a favour and visit the "Homegrown" section of the show.

I bought some "Cupcake bath bombs" from  sweet Sarah at the "Body bar" www.thebodybarblog.blogspot.com, she makes homemade soaps and other lovely yummy smelling pamper products. Also purchased another stunning corsage from the lovely Nadia www.lovecupcakecouture.blogspot.com, and  a giftwrap set from Venessa www.littlemudhutdesigns.blogspot.com.  Got to look at Terry Angelos beautiful artwork www.windmilldiary.blogspot.com and had a chat with Wendy from Ukhamba craft. Also great meeting Miranda from "Rosabella"! Over all a good day out!

My crafting haven!

Yesterday I went into "Cash Converters" in Durban North, not really with a goal to purchase anything, just to browse!-But I stumbled across a beautiful vintage dresser! And with such a great pricetag, I immediatly began plotting how we would get it home. Within the hour the dresser was placed down in our basement, and work on my "Chicks only!" sanctuary began. Finally all my supplies are now housed in this one place and neatly organised. It is a sensory overload, but all the things I love and hold dear are displayed down there. So now I can craft to my hearts content and get all the inspiration I need! So expect lots of new posts in the coming weeks on the new projects I will be busy on.
