Rainy Inspiration

The last few days of cloudy weather have reminded me of how much I love the rain. How can you not love lazy days, wrapped up in a blanket, with a good book and a hot chocolate. Some of the greatest pleasures in life involve the rain; swimming in the rain, running in the rain, there's even a song about dancing in the rain...

Soft music, a fuzzy feline companion, a sketchbook and I'm all set

 

Crockery

Today I ventured towards some home-ware stores and happened upon House, from which I bought some fabulous half-price crockery. Such a find can not go un-bragged about...

All good things come in brown paper packaging

The range included a variety of colours and patterns

Part of the Koko collection by Ambrosia, these new fine bone china pieces come in a selection of sizes, colours and patterns, allowing for plenty of mismatching.

Gone are the days of matching crockery and sanity, as a new trend of crazy has made its way into town! Like a visit to your grandma's, kitchen tables are being given a new lease on life with fantastic collections available at just about any home and kitchenware store, and I love it!

  Perhaps you can give it a try next time you have some guests. Here's a little inspiration...
