Fun with Felt





I didn't think making christmas decorations could be so much fun. Don't you just love this wee gingerbread man? There are so many lovely ideas out there. Finding the images is half the fun. Putting them into practice is the best part.

Beautiful Brugge




Not only was Brugge beautiful but it was stylish too. I couldn't resist the hares or the nesting bird!

more Anthroplogie



I love Anthropologie!




I was on the hunt for Designers Guild in London but got waylaid by the beautiful store front of Anthropologie. Inside were gorgeous linens, crockery, bedding, clothes and more. Here are some of the things I took back home!

Teatowels.....

Empress's New Clothes




Ella enjoyed her new skirts I made her for the trip. Easy, breezy and colourful! ... and they made her sit like a lady. She must have royal blood in her.


European Adventure


This year we were very lucky to venture off to Europe for nearly two months. We headed off on the 1st November and got home just in time to watch the rugby final. Needless to say we didn't watch any other game. Europe was too much fun! There was much to see. We took nearly 6000 photos. Don't you just love digital technology. You can capture some of our journey on ellasimonsnz.blogspot.com.

Barbies Picnic Table
