Toodles Noodles - Weekly Roundup 8 February

 

I’m starting to think we should always have a public holiday on a Wednesday – it’s a great way to get through the week!  Though I have to admit I did have a moment when I thought it was Saturday! We’ve had quite a week in TN HQ – getting ready for the trade expo at the end of the month, restocking some of our lovely stockists, and making some changes around our Etsy and Felt shops! More on that to be announced soon but you may have noticed that we now offer FREE shipping on all our items if ordered from Etsy to any New Zealand location! Woohoo!

I hope you all have had a lovely week and have great plans for the weekend. We’re headed to Taupo to a fun farm wedding! We’re quite excited for the glam camping by Wildersnest and to help with the styling on the day!

  1. Love the elegant touch this geometric necklace provides!
  2. These latte bowls are the perfect size for anything and everything – just the best.
  3. How precious are these alphabet trays?!
  4. 15 minutes Thin Mints made from 3 ingredients, winner!
  5. Absolutely love these vases – spotted them about a year ago and still love them!
  6. Tell them how you feel with these lovely vintage push pins.

Hope you’ve enjoyed this weeks roundup and have a fantastic weekend! x

My oh my who can believe we’re onto our last day of November 2012!  I can still remember last year as if it were yesterday… still living in Wellington, just printing our 2012 calendar, getting excited for my parents visit to New Zealand…oh how time flys!

With time flying so quickly it helps us realise how much we really do have to cherish the little moments and those special people around us. With that I came up with this week’s roundup – a simple but elegant collection of different gifts for the sisters / mothers / friends in your life!  I personally sent off my mom and sister’s gifts in the post today (next time must think feather light pressies!) as tomorrow is the last day for internation air parcels to arrive on time! (a little hint hint for those waiting to purchase items x)

  1.  This week I discovered Sprout and Sparkle from Brisbane, Australia and frankly would be over the moon to receive anything from their beautiful store!
  2. What better way of saying hello to those close to you than a cheeky reminder in their wardrobe.
  3. Have lots of gifts to buy this year? This lovely pamper package by Little Flower Soap Co is sure to bring a smile without breaking your wallet!
  4. For a personal touch try a monogram mug available from Anthropologie.
  5. These funky socks from J.Crew will surely brighten up your stocking stuffers!
  6. Want to give something a bit more personal? Baking is a fantastic affordable way to show you care this season!
Have a great weekend everyone and see you in December (eek!) x

 

This week’s gift guide is for the jewelry lovers out there!  This gorgeous shop offers a little of everything: rings, necklaces,  silver and gold combinations.

Rand Papele Jewelry is made by Eben Papele and Judith Rand in a little town north of New York City called High Falls.  Each piece is made by hand by the couple, soldered, and textured – one piece at a time. To view their entire collection visit their store – I promise you’ll fall in love with their collection.

Until next time – enjoy! 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!
