Cardboard Safari

Aren't these pretty ? And all the more so when you find out that they are made from 100% recycled cardboard - should offset the mountain of toy packaging, wrapping paper and fuel we all consume in the Christmas gift extravaganza to a degree. And there is more . . . you can paint the cardboard pieces before assembling the wreath to suit your scheme. Cardboard Safari make a range of funky cardboard animals and wall decorations as well as this seasonal range.

Thoughts for the New Year

I have written before about the Keep Calm Gallery and their lovely prints. I think this is a great print for a girls bedroom. There is so much pressure on all of us these days to look good sometimes we need a gentle reminder that there's no point looking great if you don't feel great or aren't treating your family and friends as well as you could be. So aside from all my annual resolutions to eat less, drink less and exercise more I am also going to try to improve myself on the inside !! Happy new year from sunny Sydney and every good wish for 2009.

1st day of Christmas: Baubles by Paul Smith

As I have family in town for Christmas starting today I will be counting down to the day itself with some Christmas inspiration - more pictures than words which I hope will still get you into the festive spirit.
