Look what just popped up! - Wednesday wishes.

Sometimes the loveliest things pop up in my already saved favorites on etsy!

Today I couldn't resist clicking on this sumptious handmade glass cabouchon by dancingfrogjewels.
Designing in my head all the possibilites for it's use!

And even though we actually have spring here now - the elegant simplicity of this scarf caught my eye - or was it the lovely salmon pink?
I could save it for next winter couldn't I?

And the whimsy of this just tickled my fancy!

Who didn't love those "join the dots" books when they were a kid? - or in fact, can't resist doodling when faced with a dotty design?!
I'm sure the artist mummysam understands all those temptations!

What are you temped by today?

Further to Monday's post I thought it might be fun to run a "tapas" search.

After all if you are going to make tapas at home you might need some recipe ideas

I interrupt my blogging about Tasmania for a short ad break!

Well not really an ad but a wish!

It's Mother's Day on sunday here and I always seem to need new slippers when May comes around.

These slippers are almost too delightful to be worn! they need to be framed and hanging on the wall!

The weather is changing - as it does at this time of year.
Crisp mornings and cool evenings - perfect time to buy a snuggly, stylish scarf.

I have been looking for a new bag for ages.
Some are too big, others are too small.
The wrong colour or the wrong style.

This one though is just right!

What is on your wishlist for mother's day?
Breakfast in bed?
A day spent with your mother or your children? Or both?
A day of pampering and not having to do the washing up?

Whatever - I hope all your wishes come true!

Happy Mother's Day!

Sometimes your wishes come true!



I've wished for a head mannequin for ages.
One that I can use for photographing earrings. It would also be useful for BoosTees knitted hats.

So Tina arrived! complete with fun face mask!


Ah, that's better!

I also bit the bullet and bought a headless mannequin to photograph BoosTees tshirts on. could also be useful at craft fairs.
And I realise it's great for phographing necklaces.


She doesnt have a name!
Any suggestions?
Leave a comment with your suggestion and next week I'll pick a winner and then that person can pick any item from Boos Tees shop as a prize!

Easy!

I've also been meaning to show you this wonderful brooch I bought from the Queensland disaster relief shop. It was on my wishlist of lovely items that were donated to the shop.
So I consulted my financial planner (me) and bought the brooch from Lauren Williams.

It arrived in the most gorgeous packaging!


and the brooch itself is so sweet -

I dont know whether to keep it for myselfor give to a friend for a gift.
Decisions, decisions!

You can find more of Lauren's pretty jewellery in her Madeit shop.

Do you have a wishlist to share?

I'm seriously on the lookout for a new handbag.
This one is on my short list.
I love the fabric so much and last weekend I saw a lady with a skirt made from this fabric. It was great!

bird cage bag by theseawithin

This artwork speaks to me.
I dont know if it's my fondness for antique maps, or the balloon, or the bird?
It's the combination of these elements that make the whole.
