Another Crazy Week!


We haven't stopped since we returned from our trip so I must appologise for our lack of posts once again! We went to Sydney for the day on Wednesday for Design & Decoration and went and listened to Kathryn Ireland's seminar which was fantastic. She is such an inspiring speaker and we went afterwards to meet her and get a signed copy of her latest book...I just love it! I have already found a spot for it in my cabinet!
After we finished up at the trade fair, we headed over to look at some of our favourite stores in Woollahra, including the Donna Hay General Store, where I picked up a couple of gorgeous green milk glass cake stands...I couldn't resist them! As you can see, I have a matching mixing bowl which my mum gave me a couple of years ago! Hopefully we will have more time for posts in the next week! Happy weekend! Tracey xx

    Thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a lovely comment.
    I know what its like visiting trade shows ... wonderfully inspiring ... but exhausting!
    Gorgeous cake stands ... especially from Donna Hay!
    Have a well rested weekend!

    Love those Donna Hay cake stands. I don't usually go for green accessories in the kitchen but those could change my mind. Not sure I can really get away with buying more cake stands though - I am meant to be baking less cakes! Glad you had such a lovely day. I will look out for that book.

    Your cake stands & bowl are so pretty. To go to Donna Hay's store must be a real treat? What a great day including meeting Kathyrn Ireland & listening to her speak. Hoping the new week is not as hectic for you but just as fun!

    I had the chance to buy a mixing bowl like yours but took too long to think about it and when I went back it was gone. Won't make that mistake again. Love the cake stands.
