The beautiful Stacey at Sunny Mummy has passed me the Kreative Blogger Meme (thank you Sunny Stacey). This award states that I must list 7 random things about me so here we go!
1. My mum and dad took my sister and I to the local RSL club every Friday night for dinner from the moment we were born (well maybe I was a week old!) – we would go every week without fail and we would sit and eat our food and not leave the table (so we were told!) – we did this for 18 years and I do remember religiously ordering Angels on Horseback (OMG do they still exist).
2. My first car was a silver Hyundai Excel named Holly
3. I have a thing for White Platters and have collected so many over the years that I have a cupboard called the platter cupboard – I am so thingy about food being presented on white platters that if someone brings food into my house that is not on a white platter when they are not looking I will take it off their platter and put it onto one of mine! (Please be mindful of this if you ever visit!)
4. You are either a handbag person or a shoe person – I am definitely without doubt a handbag person!!
5. I had 8 different addresses in my first 21 years of life and have had 8 addresses in the last 21 years (hoping this current address will do me for the next 21!)
6. I love Stationery – paper, envelopes, storage boxes, labels, folders, gift wrap, ribbon
7. I love the name Noah for a boy but my husband wasn’t that keen on it – lucky we didn’t have boys!
So now I have shared 7 random things about me I must pass this award on to some other lovely bloggers – hoping these friends would like to play
Meredith from Count It all Joy
Millie from The Laurel Hedge
Jessica from Oscar and Ruby
Amanda from Calico and Co

Life for me at the moment is filled with lots of exciting projects – I am feeling so inspired by all that I have going on. My little Dessert and Candy Table Styling Business is getting loads of enquiries and October has turned out to be very busy. I have also undertaken two online courses which have my creative juices flowing (and are keeping me up late at night with my homework!)
On the weekend I headed out with my camera to put into practice all that I am learning on my photography course and here are the results of my first attempt at using the camera on manual! So much more to learn but oh so pleased with the results. I hope you enjoy a few things that are keeping me inspired in the garden.

I am always on the lookout for interesting backdrops – a backdrop can add so much to a function whether it is a wedding, a party or a dessert table. They add character and tell a story. They can make a doorway look exciting or a tree look interesting.
Here is a lovely collection which includes everything from flowers to bunting to ribbon to bottles.

I seem to have a thing for tags at the moment. I am putting together some styling ideas for a wedding and I can’t get tags out of my mind.

I lovely friend and fellow stationery addict and lover of cute things sent me a link to the wonderful Bespoke Letterpress Boutique – these tags would be just perfect for a wedding, a birthday party, a birthday card – actually the possibilities are endless. Check more out here.
