Happy Monday everyone, I hope you all had a glorious weekend. I spent yesterday admiring the gorgeous Grand Wedding Show with some very lovely ladies and my amazing friend who’s getting married this winter, it was such a wonderful way to spend a Sunday! If you were in Auckland, did you manage to go? It was overflowing with so many stunning vendors! Oh, I also stumbled upon this lovely Pastel Blue Petal Chocolate Layer Cake that I’d made for a sweet baby shower a while ago – I love re-finding pretty images hidden on my computer, it’s such a lovely surprise! I still adore how soft the blue is, it’s the perfect hue to match a delicious chocolate layer cake. x

Happy Friday everyone, goodness is anyone else finding that this year is flying by! I do love that the seasons are starting to change a little, there really is something so wonderful about staying inside a little during the cooler months. Especially if your home is filled with these cozy autumn goodies – is anyone else a little in love with the mint and glitter deer head, it’s incredible!!! I really couldn’t think of anything more wonderful than pottering in the kitchen and baking some delicious autumn pies before curling up with the gorgeous new issue of Hitched – it sounds like heaven to me! I hope you all have a wonderfully relaxing weekend, and again thank you all so much for your support and for entering the 5000 Facebook likes giveaway, you are all beyond amazing! x

Happy Monday everyone, I hope you all had a glorious weekend. Is anyone else enjoying that the days are a little cooler? I love this crisp weather, it’s the perfect time to spend an afternoon potting in the kitchen making delicious bite size cookies. We were lucky enough to have a few, well a lot, of these incredibly moreish spiced cookies with warm cups of tea with Ben’s parents yesterday afternoon. They’re so good that I had to whip up a batch the second we got home – they’re so simple to make and I promise you wont be able to stop at one. x

Thank you so very much for helping reach over 5000 Facebook likes, it’s absolutely surreal and I’ll never be able to thank you enough! So to celebrate, I thought that I would share some gorgeous baking products that have been featured in the stunning new issue of Adore Home Magazine! I’ve had the true honour of being able to work along side Loni and help her out with selecting a few lovely products for the issue, it’s almost a dream come true! Be sure to have a peek at this gorgeous magazine while curled up with a warm cup of tea – it’s the perfect treat. x
Happy Monday everyone, I hope you all had the most wonderful weekend. We spent it enjoying music festivals, pottering in the garden, catching up with family and of course doing a little yummy easter baking. With Easter just around the corner, I couldn’t resist whipping up some delicious sticky mixed fruit scrolls and enjoying them straight from the oven while warm. My Grandma makes these scones by heart and each and every time they turn out beyond perfect, they’re quick enough to make before heading off to any Easter celebrations this weekend. xo

There really is something magical about a simple, yet elegant dessert table. I love how it’s not overly cluttered and that the cakes, flowers and gorgeous props are able to shine through – plus the colour palette is perfect! Beautifully styled by the very talented Leanne from Sweet Style, this really is such a lovely dessert table. x

We have been go go go this week with the NZ Gift Fair starting this Sunday! Tonight we collected all the lovely items from On My Hand who have helped style this big event – including a special hand painted sign! We are collecting the rest of our new products from our amazingly talented screen printers tomorrow (nothing like a bit of a deadline to get the heart rate up), making some final amendments to our product booklets just in time to print and of course remembering to breath!
But enough about us – wedding season is in full bloom so this week we dedicated the weekly roundup to some fun finds for some colourful wedding accessories!
1. This something blue is handmade in France by Julie Duchesne and is available through her Etsy store.
2. Looking for some fun accessories to hand out to your guests? How about some chevron pinwheels!
3. How fantastic is this wedding styled by Heima Store and Heim Interiors - loving all the colours and patterns!
4. These cosmetic bags make the perfect bridesmaid gift.
5. Who doesn’t love a yellow chevron table runner – hello happiness!
6. Wanting that extra something at your reception? Try some chevron straws with heart accents – just perfectly over the top cute.
