Happy Friday everyone! I hope you all had a lovely short week with Summer finally giving us a sneak peek. Hopefully the nice weather continues for the weekend – we’ll be over at the We Can Create markets on Saturday from 12-5 if you want to pop by and say hello!
1. This amazing logo is home to Spruce Collective - started up by five like-minded girls who share a love for vintage treasures and are inspired by all things creative. I could spend hours looking at their site….
2. Father Rabbit just opened their store in Auckland. Everything on their website is to die for, including these stunning bath towels.
3. How sweet is this canvas pouch by Paloma’s Nest found on Etsy based in Austin, Texas.
4. This beautiful coffee packaging is from Coffee Balzac’s Roasters, a company based in Ontario Canada – if the love of caffeine doesn’t get you going in the morning looking at this stunning illustration might help get those creative juices going!
5. These finger licking looking donuts are by a Spanish blog named “La receta de felicidad” which translates to the recipe of happiness. With beautiful recipes, food styling snaps and website design this one is an overall winner!
6. Don’t these measuring cups by West Elm just sing Julia Child?
Hope you’ve enjoyed this week’s roundup – have a great weekend everyone! x
Happy Tuesday everyone, how was your weekend? Mine was wonderfully relaxing, going down to Wanaka for a mini holiday, enjoying the beautiful views and also working on making Toodles Noodles ribbon bundles next to a roaring fire – the perfect combo!
With the holiday season quickly approaching I thought this would be a great time to introduce some great gift finds to the blog – this week we have The Little White Box, by Renee Coombe, located in Ardmore, New Zealand.
Their philosophy revolves around the little things that provide comfort and character that help make a house your home, and we hope that their handmade wares find a place in your heart.
With each piece being handmade and hand painted you will never find two items exactly the same which makes these beautiful ceramic items a lovely gift this holiday season. I’ve personally been eyeing up the tea pot for my new home and purchased the lovely doves for my sister-in-law – aren’t they to die for?!
Their items make great cooking, baking, entertaining, housewarming gifts this holiday season – and are of course New Zealand made! I do hope you love Renee’s work as much as I do, and if you have any suggestions for the next holiday gift post, do let us know! x
Well even though it’s supposed to be Spring in New Zealand, it’s actually been feeling a lot like Autumn this week! So in honour of Halloween coming up and Autumn starting in the Northern Hemisphere – this weekly roundup is full of Halloween goodies!
1. Blogger Oh Happy Day has some great costume ideas for the wee ones.
2. No trick needed, these cupcakes by Everyday Occasions, Jenny Hobick will definitely go down as a treat!
3. Looking for decorations, craft items, last minute treats? Paper Source has all your needs covered, just look at this amazing spread they created!
4. A candle that smells like pumpkin, I’m in heaven.
5. Great words to live by, but remember to be careful while trick-or-treating out there!
6. If you’re hosting a party this year, Little Ink’s black straws will make your evening look smart and sharp.
I hope everyone has a fantastic long weekend (for you local Kiwis!), I’m off to Wanaka for some lovely R&R with my Mr to celebrate our Anniversary! x

Well what a beautiful sunny week it’s been! It may be with the sun shinning, the lovely care package I received from my mom, the fact that I FINALLY got to do my nails last night for the first time in weeks, or just the overall lovely feeling in the air that has resulted with this week’s particularly pink girly weekly roundup!

Spring is in the air, the weather is warmer, the days are longer, and the birds are chirpier!
It also is the perfect time to start planting for the summer to come. As we only have a wee deck with little direct sun (read lots of succulents, ferns, grasses planted) I can only dream of my perfect veggie / fruit garden. Here are some great ideas of others fantastic gardens.
