Sometimes I can't help myself!

I know most women have a thing for shoes, I don't have that many pairs, but when I saw these shoes I REALLY had to have them. They are small, French and the prefect colour. Mr APT thought I was mad, spending money on shoes I couldn't wear, but I said I will wear them on my fingers..hehe

They were originally from a French male boudoir doll. I could just picture him with white stockings, a silk jacket and white wig.  I love the lace trim and tiny buckles.

What have you bought lately that you just had to have?

Enjoy your weekend and the school holidays if you have them. Bye for now, Tamara x

Quick and Easy Polish Jewellery

Hope you have had a relaxing Easter with lots of yummy eggs.

In between eggs, India and I have been whipping up a few quick glittery jewellery pieces. Its a great way to use up left-over nail polish or grab a few bottles on sale. Just cover some glass cabochon backs with the polish, let dry and attach a bail or set into a pendant or ring. Easy peasy. (As you can see, I like the purple and blue combinations.)

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy your new week whatever you have planned, Tam x

A Teal Kind of Love

Colours by Dulux

 

Do you have a favourite colour? A colour that you are drawn to time and time again? For me, that colour is teal. All the pictures above are pieces dotted around our home. I'd love to hear yours!

A pop of colour: Teal

I love colour. I am not the sort of person that could live in an all white house, although I do like the look of it, all clean and crisp, colour enables me to breathe. I seem to be particularly drawn to teal, a mix of green and blue, and have many items in this colour range dotted throughout our home.







The one colour that I am not so keen on is yellow...I know its bright and sunny but yellow clothing (and cars) drive me nuts. Every time my kids see something yellow they are quick to point it out, with a little sarcasm "oh..mum, you would like that"...but they have inherited my idiosyncrasies as well because they dislike yellow as much as me...he he

Do you have a favourite colour that has filtered its way throughout your life, in your house, clothing or even your car?

Thanks all for the lovely comments re. our Anniversary. Mr T gave me a huge bunch of flowers, fixed the leaking tap (aka flood) in the shower and arrived home early from work (the kids and I were down the shops so no one was home for the surprise..he he)
