Hello beauties, Australia Calling!
Just popping by this lovely warm balmy Friday evening to show you a couple of simple things, unfortunately as I snapped the first two photos my camera battery died so 2 is all I have to offer…
Today I got the dresser finished, in the room and it is now sitting beside me happily as I type and brimming with our linens.
It has delivered, as I knew it would (just see those layered edges. love. ) and is standing so very proudly in the study-cum-spare-room-cum-office-cum-place-to-stash-junk…you know those sorta rooms?
Well, to be very honest the acquiring and overhauling of the vintage Glory Box (read about it here, should you be new here) has meant that I had to get my act together and start organising the study. Because really, no-one else was gonna do it. Sometimes it's tough to admit that, isn't it, that no-one else has either the time, the inclination or the want to get it done. But that is, simply the way it is.
So, I have been de-cluttering like crazy, don't stand still or I'll put you in bag and stand you by the front door, ready to be shipped off to Vinnies.
And in the study it's paying off. Big time.
I thrifted a white cover for the day bed, found the Glory Box and today bought a vastly reduced candle to stand on top of the now cleared (though who knows how long it will last?) surface.
Sigh.
I think it is hard to improve on this scenario - a beautiful old piece saved from landfill, a white candle, hydrangea from the garden and a bit of bling to finish it off.
I don't know what it is about a combination like this. All I know is that for me. It works.

see you next time
