Another before and after....and Housekeeping

The move is finally OVER!! Talk about a crazy week! New babies, new houses -it's all a bit exhausting!!

I thought I'd just show you a few pics of what we've been up to......

This is the Master bedroom before....(as you can see I managed to capture the essential bottle of wine required for house cleaning)
And drumroll........

Ta-Da.....The Master bedroom after!! A sun drenched, tranquil room that has a really cosy feel and is quite minimalistic (for me anyways) I am sooo proud of our efforts in this room! I wanted it to be very simple and uncluttered to ensure restfull nights and good sleeps.


Mr Honi and I wake up to this view in the mornings now and it is just magical. Wouldn't know that we're only around 12 mins drive from the city would you! We've got a very high bed, so when you look out the window all you can see are the tress. It feels like we're in the southern highlands or something!



And now for a bit of housekeeping!!

Cass @snailblazer- I haven't forgotten to post your paper, but it is SOMEWHERE in one of these boxes below!! I'm so sorry!! I will let you know when I post it!!

Rebecca @ Edward and Lilly - you are the lucky random draw winner of the hankies!! Please email me your postal address and I will post them to you (as soon as I find them!! They're with Cass' paper!)


As you can see - I still have a LOT of unpacking to do!! Sadly, my craft room was lowest on the priorities of unpacking. The Kitchen and bedroom were first cabs off the rank.
Posting will resume as normal as soon as I can actually reach my desk!!
oooooo can you imagine how stoked I was when I found Gram's stash of vintage tins??

and Lastly, the Divine sewing master 'Veronica Darling' has nominated me for a Blog lovin award :) Thank you so much- you're sweet. I am very slack on following this up so will need to nominate a few lovely girls in a day or two (or maybe a few more)
Giveaway details - the Super Duper blogtastic giveaway will also resume in about a week or two. Some items up for grabs for Sydney folk (cause they need to be picked up) are a Rug, shelves, surfboard, desk, old sewing machine and LOTS of other bits and pieces (that might be offered interstate too)!! I just need to take piccies of them all. But i will give you all proper notice :)
Lots of love to you all - be up an running in a few days!!

Moving, Packing, Stressing

...Someone wanted to help mummy pack last night!
(oh god, I've turned into one of those sad people who call their animals their children. But she kinda is my baby!!)

Anyway, I think she can sense that we're moving and that I'm a little worked up right now. She was super cute yesterday and refused to get out of the box all night except when I sat on the couch to watch "Ladette to Lady"...gosh i love that show!

On Quilting news, I have cut out another 68 squares my quilt. Why is it that I can never find time to do quilting, but when I have to pack I manage to find time to quilt and craft??? Methinks I am procrastinating to avoid packing.....BUT I only have a few more weeks to finish it before Winter ends (which was my goal!)

Will post pics tomorrow :)
