Planning my Garden Party

Thousands of ideas running through my head since I decided to live the life I imagined and have a garden party.  I have a boxes stashed away out of sight that I have been saving for this kind of event.  Why am I saving?  I need to do this and now.  Live in the Now, right? 

Here are a few ideas.  Enjoy, Heidi

I Still Love Pink...

Last night whilst preparing the post about the birthday gift wrap dilemma, Harry was snug in my bed beside me watching t.v. and out of the blue asked me where the pink background had gone on my blog. I was surprised as I really didn't think he knew anything about my blog. I told him that I was a bit over it. He was disappointed {like many of you have been} and said "but mum how will we know that it is your blog as everyone has white blogs". I couldn't believe it. I had no idea he was so in-the-know about blogs! So, to reassure him and to reassure you here are a few little tidbits at home to show you and him that I still love pink and will do so forever but I just needed a little break from it on my blog for a while...maybe it will come back again in the new year.

The Power of Pink.

This one is for the Power behind this color that can be so bold and striking and also so soft and delicate.  This one is for the warriors, survivors, friends and families whose lives have been touched by breast cancer. 

October is breast cancer awareness month. 

It is no longer a death sentence, get yourself checked.  Love, Heidi

Pink

As Diana Vreeland once said - "I adore pink. It's the navy blue of India."

I am in agreement. It's a staple. I never tire of it. I can't live without it.

One Day

One day, I have vowed and declared to my husband and our son, we will have a house which we will paint pale pink with white trim, black gloss front door and black and white stripe awnings. Call me mad but I would just adore a pink house. I loved this house which was featured in a new favourite book - Rooms to Inspire in the Country by Annie Kelly. It seems to tick all my boxes except our house would definitely be smaller.

Pink & Red

It's no secret that I love pink. I also love pink and red together. I think it's just such an unexpected yet gorgeous colour combination!
