After a fabulous long break away up north with my family last weekend, I was looking forward to a sunny long weekend, but mother nature has other ideas!!!
Here are some of my fave pics from instagram to brighten up a rainy weekend.

Last night I was excited to attend the Anna Spiro for Porters Paints launch party held at Black & Spiro. What an great night it was - Congratulations to Anna for hosting a wonderful evening and for the wallpaper collaboration with Porters. It is something so different & special and will be a success I'm sure!!! The shop looked amazing and was filled with gorgeous flowers and garden plants to compliment the wallpaper range {as well as the usual amazing decor, furniture & accessories}. If you live in Brisbane and haven't been to have a look yet, you must!!!
The range can be viewed online at Porters Paints, and there are sample books available in Porters Paints outlets as well at Black & Spiro.
I hope you all have a lovely weekend. We are off to the coast to attend Sam's first party - his cousins 1st birthday party, so should be fun!

Wow -how the last month has flown. Little Sam turned 6 months old today and the changes each day are amazing. He is a little treasure and his huge smile can brighten up any day!!! Happy 6 month birthday :-)

I am guilty of an instagram addiction!!! I have been reading about it on blogs & have been told about it by a few people for a while now and am consequently now hooked.... Much to the detriment of this blog I might add.
Here are a few of my pictures that I have posted recently.... You can see more on instagram @kelly_polkinghorne {I would love to see you there}!
Hope you are having a great week so far :-)

This exciting package arrived via courier late on Friday afternoon... Gorgeous fabric found at Proud Mary thanks to the last edition of Lonny!!! The fabrics are hand printed by a womens co-op in South Africa using potatoes as their print blocks. It is a great quality base cloth and the colours are vibrant - the fabric is an artwork in itself. You can check out Harper's blog & store here.
Hope you have a fabulous week :-)

Well, the poor herb garden suffered somewhat once the baby arrived {watering & tending to herbs was WAY down on my priority list!} so inspired by some gorgeous {and not too hot} sunny days, I went off to the nursery. Here are some newbies alongside some oldies in their glory, basking in the morning sun.... Now, where's the fertiliser?
These books arrived late last week & were amongst some I ordered recently. Can't wait to sit down & enjoy them. They have been around for a while but I love adding to my growing collection. You can never have too many books!
Happy Wednesday!
