Friday Flowers - Hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are back baby! It is the start of the season here are some pretties picked from mums garden.

White hydrangeas in the kitchen

Does anybody else google search you own blog to find pictures? I remembered a post I did last year about mums Hydrangeas so I "Black Velvet Chair Hydrangea" searched it here is the photo from my post last year. Gee the dining room has come a long way baby Light fixture, chairs whoo hooo progress.

$1 Holiday season decor {DIY}

As you might have seen from my thrifted weekend haul I scored a little reindeer and a natural twig wreath, they were $1 a pop! Yes that is less than I pay for a coffee.

With a little paint I have transformed the dining room buffet for the Holiday season, even better the reindeer painter {my niece} accepted payment in home made chocolate cupcakes!.

Remember he was a gaudy shade of Christmas gold before

Also I tied some ribbon to the wreath with a little bow and hung it over the top of the mirror (Fixing to the wire at the back of the mirror).  

$2 well spent?

The Thrift stores seam to have allot of Christmas decorations out, I am sure there will be even more in store next week as this weekend I envisage people turfing unwanted Christmas decor from last year (isn't it funny how much your taste can change in a year).

Marcus Design Inc {Before and After}

Nothing makes me happier than finding a fabulous new blog with Before and Afters galore! My days have been very busy lately {always the way leading up to the holidays, why?} so it helps when I get a second to check out an amazing transformation, These pics are too good not too share!

Pink cockatoo on a plate {Weekend Thrifting}

How fun is this Pink Cockatoo plate I found at a local thrift store, I think it looks pretty neat hanging in the entryway to our apartment (Takes a little focus of the intercom system).

 It seams very Black & Spiro inspired

The Thrifted haul!

You find some amazing things when you are not looking for anything in particular.

Did you manage to do any thrifting over the weekend?

Grey + Pink + Cream {Home Tour}

I have not shared a Home tour for a while, seeing as I have not been able to get these stunning images out of my head I thought I would make sure these images are firmly planted in yours also. Via:Made by Girl.

Da business centre (cupboards along the wall look great and functional)

 

A little confused Is this room a bar, kitchen or lounge? Love the black walls anyways!

 

The painting in the dining room is dreamy! Grey pink and cream!

 

 

"Hello you" more paintings in the master bedroom similar to the dining room.

Kitchen pendants "Yes"!

 

Okay maybe I am a little confused with the arrangement of four chairs in this room.
