tea cups {one of many}

i believe i can speak for jaye and nia when i say;

WE LOVE TEA CUPS {and yes, i do believe the caps were necessary} :) it's also no secret we love fairy lights, so when i stumbled upon this picture, needless to say my squeal of delight rivaled the chorus line of chipmunks do bohemian rhapsody


pretty yes?

Mothers Day

I love celebrating Mothers Day. It's one of those rare occasions where mothers are appreciated for every little thing: from helping with homework or nowadays (still) cooking dinner!

I had a Mothers Day function on Saturday 7 May where I made paper flower bouquets inspired by one of my loved blogs Ruffled showing a DIY paper flower garland. Because I couldn't find styrofoam wreaths I used medium sized balls instead, to do bouquets instead which turned out to be a great hit!

As little favours to the mothers I made fridge magnets with quotes thanking mothers for everything they've done.



Gourmet canapes where present, from Peking Duck Rolls to Petite Scones with Jam and Cream. Mary from Oh My KitchenAid whipped up a beautiful White Chocolate Panna Cotta with Coffee Syrup and Mushroom, Tomato and Bacon Brushchetta on Sourdough for the function which went down a treat!



 I must say, there's nothing better than having friends that know how to cook!
