No Devonshire Tea For Me

Kelly rang me to taunt me with the fact that she had just enjoyed devonshire tea at the Country Women's Association, and then was off to Warhope to source inspiration for our new collection. 'Inspiration' pretty much translates into items we are going to fight over who get's to take home as we'll love them so much. Our taste is so similar it's scary...lucky we found each other really.

Can't wait to see what amazing things she's going to do with them for the next collection!!

Daily Imprint

I love reading interviews with people, but was a bit thrown (but flattered) recently when the lovely Natalie from Daily Imprint asked me to do an interview for her blog. Check out her interview with Beci Orpin...

Olive's Friend Pop

Olive's Friend Pop have in spades when it comes to divine girly vintage inspired clothing for littlies. These are so so cute. Why oh why won't my daughter wear girly clothes???





Lines and Shapes

I have a few volumes of Lines and Shapes hanging about the Pony Rider studio and Kelly and I pore over them frequently. They've just published some new ones so get in there..

Gold Tea Pot

Yes, Kelly, we so need a gold tea pot for the studio.

Seeing as you're away today I thought we might buy one with our petty cash he he

Shop Til You Drop

Oh yes, this morning just got good !! A feature in Shop Til You Drop!!


Breakfast

I hate sleeping in and running late and today that's what happened. I need some serious time to prepare and enjoy my breakfast...so nope, this morning I did not have anything as delicious looking as this Warm and Nutty Cinnamon Quinoa. I can hear your heart breaking he he...





Kelly has to endure my continuing obsession with Elisabeth Dunker from Fine Little Day and Studio Violet and as a reader of this bog, it's probably so will you.

my latest favourite find is Gini I ordered the most amazing crochet bowl and little block puzzle from her, and it arrived in a couple of days with a handwritten note all the way from France. Amazing.

I'm going to have to take a photo of that cute bowl and post it soon for you...

Pia Jane Bijerk

I seriously envy the life of the gorgeous Pia Jane Bijerk as she works diving her time between her house boat in Amsterdam, Paris and Sydney her home town. Her blog is definitely one to follow...

Lunch Time

Some of these images are making me hungry and I feel the need to sit in a cafe and hang out. Lucky Kelly is on her way over so we can go hang in Zubi Bar down the road...the rest of the pics are just lovely and I thought you would like
 

Taxidermy

Kelly's man Chris got given a rather large taxidermy deer head complete with gorgeous antlers the other day. 

We've named him Rufus and put him up here at the Pony Rider studio to photograph so Kelly can use him for some new designs we're working on. It's a small problem as I have been unable to stomach the thought of eating meat since he arrived. 

But I'll be sure to post some of our new work once done. Hopefully becoming a non willing meat eater will pay off once Kelly's done her magic, but until then here's another cute, if not older deer from Lost

Speaking Of Dinner


I think that this recipe looks like it's worth a try this weekend, as I have a bag of cous cous pearls I haven't known what to do with. No cooking instructions on the pack and these cracked balls of wheat are three times the size of regular cous cous...



and whilst on the Sunday Suppers blog I found these very sweet photo's of wildflowers
