A pretty pickup


Picked up some more gorgeous lampshades {excuse the photo this one is a quick shot from my blackberry}! I just look at them and they make me so happy. I showed some friends today and they all have put in orders - bless them!

Have a lovely weekend everyone. Thanks for your kind words this morning, was feeling very lethargic but much better now - think these little beauties were the 'pick me up' I needed! Kellie xx

Ps. These will be available through the shop - a day or two away!

Thoughts...


Feeling a bit like this today... Must push on - it's Friday! xx

Day or Night...


Beautiful designs, full of absolute gorgeousness. Loving this range from Mrs Press! I quite like clothing that lends itself to day or night - these are always the pieces that I get so much wear out of! Kellie xx


Thank you!!


Thank you to the lovely Lori at Adore Magazine who was kind enough to feature some Ada & Darcy products in the first edition of Adore Magazine. To everyone who emailed me - thank you! I promise it wont be too much longer we are live.

And the magazine is just gorgeous, and its Australian!! So much pretty colour, which you know, always makes my heart skip a beat or two. Thank you so very much Lori! Kellie xxx

Holiday = Booked


Summer holiday = booked! Yippeee. Can't wait to have our own gorgeous pool on the Noosa River {my enthusiasm for a pool is due to not having one as a child and as an adult im desperate for one!!}. It's my favourite place. Love the shops, the restaurants, the weather and the stunning location. Can't wait! Kellie xx

Cloisonne Vases & Ginger Jars


Oh i just love these! Gorgeous colours and delightfully pretty. Versatile too - gorgeous on their own and divine with flowers. These came yesterday and I couldn't resist a little picture for Mum who will adore these too!

My Mum's off having a wonderful time in Hawaii shopping up a storm i suspect... Selfishly I cannot wait for her to come home, so much to tell her! Only a week and a half to go. Have a lovely time Mum - kisses!!! xxxxxx

Garden joy


Spring time prettiness. Loving those suspended glass vessels too! We spent lots of time in the garden yesterday, it's so good to see all my favourite hydrangeas starting to show signs of life again. I look forward to having little bunches of flowers inside, courtesy of our little garden. Kellie xx

Sponge Cake Disasters


I attempted another sponge cake yesterday and no, this beautiful one here isnt mine. Mine was flat and horrible. What is it with sponge cakes and them never looking like those gorgeous pictures. I know it's not the recipe, and it's definitely me but i just cant quite pinpoint what im doing wrong. I envisage something so beautiful with fresh cream, strawberries and covered in icing sugar but sadly, it always ends in the bin! Any tips for astute bakers?

Which would you take?


If I had a choice, Id take the pink one. You? Kellie xx


Gorgeous Grey

Loving this long weekend! Gorgeous grey and charcoal bedding arrived, perfectly luxurious and glamorous. Also so flexible to mix and match with my decor. I really must choose one or two for me! Have a gorgeous week everyone! Kellie xx
