This year.

Thursday, December 30, 2010

This year has come and gone so quickly. This year I went back to work after spending ten months at home with my baby boy. This year I learnt to juggle. This year my identity returned. This year we got new carpet. This year we moved to a house with a backyard. This year I grew herbs. This year Lella and I had a bet that she would learn to play the harmonica. This year my washing machine stopped washing. This year I didn't blog as much as I would have liked. This year was busy.

You all should have your Christmas shopping done by now, but if not, check out Jack Spade! So lovely and something for everyone. My favourite gift guide is the "Gift like a drunken sailor". Brilliant. Happy gifting!

Your melody haunts my reverie.

These, dear friends, are Fleet Foxes. Get to know them very well and you will never be the same again. Listen to a few tracks here. Then buy the album.

This summer I want to build a Teepee.

Christmas gift ideas: The Good Machinery

Thursday, December 9, 2010



These little fluoro animal figurines from The Good Machinery would make fantastic gifts. That pink pony would look oh so fine displayed on my bed head. Check out the whole gang here.

Eyes like stars.

This image makes me think of Anooke. She had her graduation formal a few weeks ago and she wore amazing Shu Uemura eyelashes with a beautiful little pink heart that fluttered every time she blinked. It was magical.

Christmas gift ideas: Ken Diamond



I love Ken Diamond leather goods. Hand crafted by a guy with a beard in Canada - it's like a bell went off and was like "BRRRINNNNNNGGG!!! LELLA! Cute bearded guy hand crafting beautiful items!" and I was sold. So I decided to make a little selection of my favourite Ken Diamond products for you all to drool over and add to your Christmas lists. Check out all of the range here.

On Lella's Christmas Wishlist.

Wednesday, December 1, 2010



Our family has a gift system where we have a set budget and buy for one family member. This year I'm buying for Lella - here are a couple of things from her wishlist.
1. Mini Skull Ring, Karen Walker.
2. Biggie print by Cody Hudson, Turntable Lab.
