Tick...To Do... 2010

victorian home in london, originally uploaded by * d a a n *.

I'm not usually one for making 'New Year Resolutions' but this year I'm going to create a list of things that need to be competed and ticked off before the end of 2010.

Missing from the list will be the arbitrary 'get fit' and 'lose weight' resolutions instead they'll range from the mundane - personal administration chores (that are for ever being put off )
to organising the house. I've added to the list more exciting to do's such as places to visit on our trip overseas in June. I'm also determined to try to spend less time being inspired and more time acting on those inspirations.... But to be fair when the inspiration is this good how can you not keep looking!

Our House.... Finn's Room

Here are some pictures taken of Finn's room today. I don't have any images of the room before, but if you could please visualize a room darkened by lime green walls. Not too tragic but was instantly transformed after 3 licks of Porter's paint in Snow White (used through out the house).

Thanks to my wonderful Mum and Finn's Nanna Moo for the Cath Kidston scatter cushions - Sewn With Tender Love and Care.

Finn's little feet... I can't tell you how tricky and messy it was painting his feet blue and trying to get a decent print on paper, but we succeeded!

Finn loves the decal Elephant &
the Shelves NEVER stay tidy.

Edwardian christening outfit - found on ebay.co.uk and was the perfect size for Finn.
I love the colours in the Cath Kidston laundry bag, I always head to her store in St Ives (Cornwall) when I travel back to the UK. The little canvas ABC tote is from the Tate St Ives, it's very handy for bottles and snacks when we head to the beach.

Still the front garden to landscape, new bench tops and a splash of paint in the kitchen and easy on the wallet prints for the walls to find - any ideas of the later would be appreciated.

For those of you (LIKE ME!) who've not even started writing your overseas christmas cards then there's still time - if you send an e-card....
Marie Curie UK has great E-cards for sale including some wonderful cards that have been designed by Cath Kidston, good for the environment and for good for supporting a great charity.

If your stumped for something to buy year in year out for the person in your life who's impossible to buy for or already has everything then hop onto Oxfam unwrapped - you'll be able to spend anywhere from $10 to $700 on something that is truely helpful and worthwhile, like these funky looking farmers packs for $94!

Enjoy your christmas shopping....

Couldn't Wait....

I couldn't wait any longer, even though it's not finished here are some images of our felt decorations in the making and the Christmas tree constructed out of fallen 'something' from the garden, driftwood, and garden twine.

Re. image above - the idea is to have he small circles will sit on the larger circles and held together by a button....

And here it is.....

'Le tree'

Yep, that thing on the right of the picture! Sans felt decorations but currently displaying one cute glass bauble from Country Road. It looks much grander in real life - I promise!
