Finally Finished..




Hi all,

Been a while since I've posted anything on this site, but I just had to show off our finished pond and garden. Col, my wonderful man worked tirelessly to get it all finished, and it really looks spectacular (the photos really don't do it justice). Thanks to the rainfall we didn't need to use any water to fill it, other than my water bottle he religiously tipped into the pond every morning before he went to work. (Don't laugh we recycle everything)
Now the last thing is the pergola, and that isn't far away..I hope.

And if you are wondering what happened to my paper tole's, after all this blog was meant for my paper tole craft, I plan to do some in the next few weeks and post them..I promise :)
Anyway almost time to slumber..work tomorrow :(

Another addition to the household - the POND


Hi all,

As you can see my other half Colin, has been at it again and this time he's added a fish pond, with a recycled waterfall (just need the rain now) and some new plants we bought this weekend. (Still need a lot more plants) It will be so nice to sit on the new deck, watch the fish and see our garden grow, and of course relax after a day working in the city. Now, all we need now is the pergola, but that's another story for another day!

Until then,

Have fun xx

ANOTHER DISNEY CLASSIC

Hi everyone,
I just couldn't resist posting this Disney classic that I transformed into papertole. It looks so good and colourful. (Sometimes the photos I take, really don't do justice to what's in the frame - perhaps I should take a stint in photography or buy a new camera) Neverthless, they look great on my craft wall of my new house. I have made a few others of Mickey and the gang and will post the pics, down the track but for now.. Enjoy!

Wishing YOU Well!


Hi All,
I hope everyone had a pleasant Mother's Day. Our day has been quite busy, well Col's was in the building department. Anyway, he built this wonderful wishing well this weekend and painted it up too. It is sooo cute..It stands precisely 1400cm high and 600cm wide. It can be used for a variety of things..Herb garden, potted plants etc. We have a bucket on its way (bought on ebay) to put in the well just to make it look more authentic. And the colours actually match our house.. Meanwhile here are some before and after shots. Enjoy!!
PS. Be on the look out for Col's Blog in the future, where you will be able to purchase any of his fabulous creations..

A New Addition to the House..Our Big Deck











Col, my other half, is such an amazing man. He tirelessly built this wonderful deck in only 3 days. (Actually it was last weekend and half of today) Nevertheless, I didn't think he could finish it but he did. It looks small in the photos but when you are standing on it, it's quite large. It will accommodate an outdoor setting, large pot plants, a BBQ and anything else I can think of. So I just want to say thankyou honey for a job well done!!

CREATE A TOLE COMING SOON!!


WHEW!! What a day! Thankfully it's over. Tonight I've been having some fun in photo studio and came up with this design (and plenty of others) for my upcoming website. But I plan to animate it, in a way where the frame and its contents really do come to life. And that will be a challenge in itself. Anyway better hit the hay..Goodnight :)
