Long weekend before Christmas

We just came back from a wonderful long weekend at one of my favorite beachside destinations - Mooloolaba on the Sunshine Coast. It was perfect although a little hot on Saturday. We took my husbands staff away for a night and out for dinner for the second year running. It's a great way to unwind and time to take life a little less seriously. My family arrived yesterday to celebrate our parents 40th wedding anniversary. There were 19 of us with all the kids! Quite big!
Hope you week is great, Hayley x

This is a a great image of what Christmas looks like here in Australia!
As much as i am looking forward to a white Christmas in New York one year, I must say, we really are blessed to enjoy a long summer and great food this time of the year also!

A Weekend in the Garden...

via Domino Magazine
I wish my garden looked just like this one so that I could enjoy it this weekend but I figure if I never put the effort in it will always look tragic so this could be the weekend where I attempt some gardening! Anyone who knows me is laughing right now! Hope you all have a fabulous weekend! Tracey x

Christmas love

I found these gorgeous images from Small Place Style Blog from last christmas.
I think they are so beautiful!




Favourite Decorations!!!

Just thought I would share a few of my favourite Christmas decorations this year!

I bought quite a few old 'Shiny Brights' from Ebay which I just love. They look great on a tree but I like to display them in bowls around the house as well - they add a bit of colour!

These are my favourite mercury glass decorations - I have quite a few of these but you can never have too many!

Another bowl of shiny brights on my TV cabinet.


My all time favourite decoration which my whole tree is decorated around (colour wise) are my Greengate pink, red and white glass flowers!



I can't go past the plain mercury glass in different shapes displayed in an old pewter bowl! Hope you are all having a great week - I know we have been slack with our blogging but its so busy leading up to Christmas! Will try and do better! Tracey x
