Take me home...

Me:  Hello Mr Snowman.  You are so gorgeous and happy!

Me to Mr Mac:  Isn't he fab?  Do you like him?

Mr Mac:  Don't we already have one just like him?

Me:  No? (with sad face and look of disappointment)

The shelf was empty when I went back to get him, without Mr Mac.

I am sure he went to a lovely home, all warm and cosy with lots of family and friends to keep him company.

Merry Christmas to you, wherever you are... x

A grand day out...

It was the first collaboration between ilovehearts and Simple Things Handmade yesterday.

Personalised bunting, pretty fabric clutch bags and purses by Simple Things Handmade

We were selling our handmade gifts at The Big Harvest Weekend held in the beautiful grounds of Greys Court in Henley-on-Thames, Berkshire.

Greys Court is part of the National Trust. 

There were apples from the orchard, freshly made food, drinks, cakes, flowers, music and dance too.

The house itself, the Tea Room and Souvenir Shop make a grand day out.  

Did you know that some scenes from 'Downtown Abbey' were filmed there?  

For more information, please visit National Trust Greys Court

We met the fabulous Tara and Daisy, her super sweet vintage ice cream van.

We wanted to go home with them...

They can both be booked for your special event at www.daisyicecreamvan.co.uk

This is my favourite design by Nicola Metcalfe.

I love the bright colours and the iconic architecture in this London scene.

It was a lovely sunny day with lots of family visitors.

We hope to be back soon... x

Hello Mr Fox...

It is Autumn already.

As I reach for my blanket and look for my hot water bottle, I know it will soon be time to bring out my coat, scarf, gloves and woolly hat too.

Here is the cutest little fox to keep you company as the nights drawn in and the leaves turn red...

He has been hand-sculpted from polymer clay by Laura from le animalé.

Find him and many other cute little animals online:

A night out in London...

We were super lucky to have tickets to the UK première of Iron Man 3.

Here are just a few pics taken inside the Odeon cinema in Leicester Square whilst waiting for the movie to begin.

It is a brilliant movie.  Out on 25 April 2013.
