All Things Lovely

Depuis

Mina from the lovely Etsy store Depuis contacted me recently with some of her beautiful photography. Since I'm a sucker for a beautiful photo, I had to share!

Aren't they beautiful? She also has a lovely blog, so have a peek here.

New Packaging - New Everything!

I don't know if you're anything like me, but I get bored with things very easily. Take my logo for Avonlea, I think I change it way too regularly, which isn't a good thing.

Anyway, I've been playing around and I thought I would go for a more natural look, so I now have a new logo and packaging! Yay! So, thought I'd show you, here's my new business cards.

And, my new packaging.

Don't forget, everything in my shop is 20% off until the end of the month!
 

20% Off Everything Pre Christmas Sale!

I've started my Christmas shopping and I thought perhaps you all might be starting yours soon, so.... I'm offering 20% off EVERYTHING in my shop to help you on your way!

Head on over to Avonlea and save on baby bibs, casserole carriers, knitting bags and more!

Just wait until I send over your amended invoice before paying, and happy shopping!

Roses A Blooming!!

You can't understand how excited these pictures make me. I am so not a gardener so the fact these roses are alive and blooming astounds me and makes my little heart sing.

  

 

Yes, it's Pink!

I've been wanting to do this for quite a while, but finally got the time to do it. Paint my outdoor setting. I bought it about a year ago, but it's been bashed around a fair bit outside, and started to look pretty dodgy. Inspired by Nicole at Making It Lovely, I took the plunge and painted it.

Here's the dreadful before so you can see what I was working with!

I decided to use Wattyl Solagard to paint it, they have a fair few colours, but I chose Fig Sweet.

And here you go! Yes, it's prety bright. I think I'm happy with it, but I'm happy to incorporate some charcoal into my garden to kind of tone it down a bit.

 

The September Issue

I went and saw The September Issue last weeknd, has everyone else already seen it? Did you LOVE it? I really did. I think I want to go and work with Grace Coddington now styling amazing shoots.

I've tried to find some of the shots online that I really loved but I can't seem to find them, but these are some others I loved.

What about you? What did you think about it all? Do you have links to more images?
