Best weekend ever...

BFF Ada and I had some spectacular op shopping success Saturday morning...

(I'll show you my treasures soon)


and a lovely time hanging in the garden with Annabel the Cannabel...


then decided that we could not live another minute without some spectacular floral headpieces,
a la our favourite fabulous disgrace Desiree...


so after some sage advice from Ms PullYourSoxUp, we procured a hot glue gun, 
some headbands and a whole lot of flowers and fruit and got gluing...


Some third degree burns, my 80s party mega mix and a lot of giggles later...


We are pretty smug pleased with our efforts!


We have made 13 so far and have plans for many, many more...


Then this evening we went to the Botanic Gardens for an evening 
of jazz and dancing in the park, lovely food and wonderful company...




How civilised!





Oh I miss my loves so much... it makes me sad and I haven't even left yet...

I'm heading home tomorrow to prepare for Helgastock2012 in FIVE SLEEPS!

Oh and I've been having internet and phone probs for days 
so if you have emailed or texted me and I haven't responded, that's why... 
and if it's urgent you might have to give me a call... I know: old school!

I hope you've all had a delightful weekend...

Genius! I am so jealous of all the colour and light you guys have, I'm used to grey and gloomy but it does get a tad wearisome when you through COLD into the mix as well. I'm freezing.

Krista said...

OMG I have been AWOL but soooooooooooo happy to read this post - my god it's so fecking addictive isn't it? I think I should put ear plugs in the kids' ears when I'm glueing because of the continual swearing like a navvy with the fecking burns!!!! It's worth it and I am creaming myself over your joint creations!!!!!!!!! The two of you and the beautiful Annabel are glorious, glorious creatures and wee A is sooooooooooo lucky to have such an amazing Aunty and Ada as role models:))))))))) xoxoxooxoxooxo
