My Favourite Childhood book, explains a lot.

I just found my favourite childhood book on Amazon, Sally's Secret. Sadly over the years I lost my copy, having lots of sisters generally meant our books were handed down, so lots got lost, many drawn all over (i remember my mum having to replace a rather defaced copy of Robert the Rose horse) or if they were particular favourites, simply fell to bits.

But Sally's Secret was my most favorite of all. A story about a girl who hosts a secret tea party in her garden it's no suprise as an adult I am obsessed with garden parties.

Outdoor Spaces

From previous blogs of mine (Party in the Garden, I want to have a Garden Party) you will see that i'm in love with dreamy garden parties on long summer nights. Yesterday I discovered the book 'Outdoor Spaces' from the wonderful people at Pottery Barn (which begs the question, why the heck doesn't London have a Pottery Barn yet??)
This book is definately on my Amazon wish list!

I wish I didn't live with boys, they just don't appreciate this sort of thing!

My first blog love...

Many Blogs give me so much inspiration and ideas, it's safe to say I'm officially addicted to this world! But I wanted to share with you one of my favourite sites (which also happens to be the first one I followed).

My Life - My Loves continues to amaze me on a daily basis. The very talented Sharnel is the hostess with the mostess and is most definately the queen of cupcakes! Her parties make me want to host one myself immidiately. Every detail is thought about and presented with the greatest love and attention.

Today with great excitement, I learned she also has a cupcake blog, 'The cupcake company'. If only I lived in Brisbane, I'd be her best customer! oh well, at least the site alone is a treat for the eyes.

I'm just mad about...Bunting!

It's so pretty and vintage!

Party in the Garden?

Another gorgeous evening garden party, i love this look so much!

I want to have a garden party!!

I found this picture on another blog and just thought it was absolutely beautiful, it makes me feel all summery and now I want to have an evening party in the garden, if only i had a garden... I love how secret it all looks and how magical the lanterns make it.

How nice would something like this be for a wedding!
