A country wedding / A new life

I am not quite sure how to explain the major life changes I have undergone over the past 12 months.
My husband and I took 10 weeks off to travel to Europe to make some big decisions about our future and returned to Australia to proceed with closing our retail interior/furniture store. It was a huge decision and really quite scary and yet I am happy to say it has been the best decision

I then spent the past 5 months planning a wedding at home for my daughter. Against all warnings from a few experienced local ladies who tried to suggest we go else where we decided to have a marquee in our garden at home. It was a mammoth task and I am now incredibly relieved to have it all behind us.

A few kind readers have asked if I would return to blogging and on a wet and very early wintery day I decided it was just the day to begin.

I would love to know if you are still following, so please leave a comment.

Inspirational flowers

I am so thrilled a friend introduced me to a new book by Saskia Havekes called Grandiflora celebrations. Saskia owns the fabulous florist Grandiflora in Sydney and in her words, "specializes in creating bespoke arrangements and floral installations for memorable events in Australia and overseas". Just the inspiration I need for planning a wedding. Available at all good book stores or contact, Grandiflora.
