Feeling Good

I don't know if it's all these Easter bunnies I've eaten or what, but I'm feeling good right now.

This time last year was pretty horrible for me. And even writing just that sentence makes my eyes tear up a little... but... 12 months has past and finally I feel like I am moving past all the bullshit that came from 2011.

I was worried that all the memories from last year would ruin my time off over Easter. But it hasn't.
BJ and I have been painting our lounge room which is a new experience for both of us and It's been fun and exciting and messy and I've loved it.


2012 has already been a fantastic year and
I can only see it getting better.


Happy Smorgy

Finally Being Creative - Bridal Shower Gift

This weekend I attended my work colleague Megan's bridal shower/kitchen tea. Traditionally for events like these you are ment to give the bride 'to be' a gift for her kitchen... These days most people already live out of home and have collect there household items and i didn't want to be the person who gave her ANOTHER set of tea towels.

I wanted to do something a bit different and creative. (FINALLY I've made something this year!!!)

So i made up a 'Hen's Night Kit'.


I made a set of badges for her and her friends to wear out to there night of girly fun. The set included a bunch of badges for all her friends to wear with informed everyone that they are apart of 'Megan's Buckette Party' and then Megan herself received three badges... A 'Bride To Be', 'Megan & Matt Forever' and '5th May 2012' (There wedding date) badge. The 'Bride To Be' badge was made a little more fancy with a cute ruffled ribbon around it AND i also made and extra 'Bride To Be' badge into a ring.


All the badges were designed to match the theme on her hen's party invitation and I think the whole kit came out looking pretty awesome.



I oragamied (I dont know if thats a real word) up some gift boxes and made a cute little card too. The ruffled badge was the decoration for the card and the rest of the goodies were tucked away inside.

It was something nice and different which i think showed the amount of time and thoughts i put into her gift. Plus i think she really liked it.
