Contrast Decorating

Who doesn't love decorating with white?

I think my favourite decors are contrasting colours

Particularly black/gray & white

I'm trying to go for this look in my living room

Here are some pictures which are giving me inspiration!

And finally some from my own living room!

I'm still not 100% satisfied with it (can you ever be though ..?!?)

Happy Birthday...

...to one of my besties...the lovely Gayle... AND guess what...its my birthday too!

she's not a blogger (yet) but she's one of my fave people to go thrift shopping with & is a fantastic artist so I'm trying to persuade her :)

here we are last summer enjoying the sunny weather on the north coast!

This weekend is a bank holiday here in Northern Ireland & as I'm in the property trade I get a whole week!! :) YAY!

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

Summery Days in Maghaberry!

The weather here in the UK is unpredictable to say the least!

Maybe that's why its the number 1 topic of conversation...!?!

Yesterday started with gale force winds and rain .... by afternoon it was sunny, like really hot - sunbathing weather!

Thursday is my day off, so I was chillaxing in the garden & making the most of the sunshine...

I love summer!


and lazy summer afternoons....

... strawberries!

and pretty summer flowers


And BBQs

It was my husbands birthday last week & we had a bbq...I was SO busy I didn't get taking any pictures :(

Hate it when that happens!

I did get one of his cake...(check out the barbie candles...this was all we could find) (: (:

(he'd kill me if he knew I'd put this up) (: do you like the fancy cake stand?!!

Here is Daisy & myself before the bbq...


Random post I know... I just wanted to let you all know what I've been up to this week!

Hope everyone is having a good Friday!

I'm working today - trying to furnish a showhouse...could be worse I guess :)
