Randomness

Hi everyone!

You may remember the post about this market basket I found at an estate sale. To reach the basket I climbed over a lawnmower and other tools. I am sure everyone thought I was a crazy lady in high heels climbing all over the packed shed. I was determined to have the basket!

You haven't seen the other Market Basket I bought at auction last July. The pictures are not great (that is an understatement). I knew I wouldn't be home for quite a while and I was running around taking random pictures quickly for future blog post. These were taken literally as I was rushing out the door to catch my flight to Dad's.

Lastly, I can't believe I forgot to show you one of my Christmas gifts from Steve. After a lot of research we decided on the Canon T3. It seemed to have good reviews and we found it at a great price.

The camera came with the 18-55 lens and we also ordered the 55-250 telephoto lens. It has been fun playing around with the camera but I still have so much to learn!

Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great weekend!

xx,
Sherry

Christmas Tablescape - French Style With A Touch Of Silver

The other week I was wandering around Le Monde, one of my favourite Auckland homeware stores. First I was awed by a gorgeous room setting with accents of a deep, lime green, then I spotted their beautiful Christmas tablescapes. Le Monde is one of those stores you can't resist walking into, displayed cleverly into room settings, but never cluttered, I'm always inspired by the ever changing colours and designs. A few weeks ago I was inspired by their blue and white setting and dashed home to bring more blue and white into my sitting room. Today I feel inspired by another of their beautiful settings with accents of lime green and seriously thinking about introducing touches of this colour into my living area next Winter.

While I was browsing, I spotted two gorgeous Christmas tablescapes which Le Monde kindly let me photograph. Today I'm sharing a silver tablescape, with a French feel, and tomorrow, one a little more rustic, I hope they inspire your own table this Christmas. If you live in Auckland and you haven't visited Le Monde, I encourage you to visit this beautiful shop. oh! and its right next to La Cigale French Market, so makes a great Saturday morning shopping and eating ☺
