<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Wowser's ;-(... I think I'm going to miss this place...this old blog of mine. Now do tell me, is that normal when you move sites?? I am terribly good at any sort of change aren't I?? Anyhoo I've come here to warn you that things are still very green over at <a href="http://hipbrownhome.com.au/?page_id=31" target="_blank">Hip Brown Home</a>... yes, upon your arrival you will be surrounded by many imperfections... but its definitely time to expand on all of those ideas I've had rattling around for my new blog and business and allow them to flourish/ be. The finer details will develop along the journey!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I do want to say that whilst my blog is going to run along side a business...It's my mission to stay as creatively connected to it as ever. I am still very passionate about blogging and oh my gosh, I hope I don't get stage fright but I have many ideas that I am looking forward to work-shopping ;-0.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Hello,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I hung a little fern on our wall. It is called a "Slender Bracken Fern". I bought it from our local <a href="http://www.qld.greeningaustralia.org.au/GAQOTSASP/" target="_blank">Native Nursery</a>; our's is super cheap, I call it the $2 nursery! Not everything is $2 but very close to. Do you have one in your area too? I simply planted the fern in a glass jar; I used coloured sand in the very bottom for a little drainage and then packed in planting-soil to surround the actual plant. I then used picture wire to wrap around the jar, twisted it several times and then made a loop so that it could be easily latched on to a wall hook. I love it because it's very simple and looks a little bit sweet... Do you think so too?? I think I need one in our new bathroom too!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1wRKVkbxqEzcDYAkj4m7aAnmaPG53n60ETm6XgBZLzYhSKYdsu96Xf2EYIk213TJvGU2BWMTc3e6XqBIrK8r-82gjOlqUVLTSebJ0mKHy_RInHsBwmXtehCRy7on1l6av0nZI6flxA6tj/s1600/IMG_8197.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1wRKVkbxqEzcDYAkj4m7aAnmaPG53n60ETm6XgBZLzYhSKYdsu96Xf2EYIk213TJvGU2BWMTc3e6XqBIrK8r-82gjOlqUVLTSebJ0mKHy_RInHsBwmXtehCRy7on1l6av0nZI6flxA6tj/s640/IMG_8197.JPG" width="610" /></span></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> I do think there is something about planting plants or maybe it's having nature around you that is a little bit addictive because hanging the above fern also inspired me to create a vertical garden on our balcony. Again, it was super easy to do and I think you could use any type of jars you have at home. I wrapped picture wire around both the jar and the lattice wall that surrounds our balcony but you could use hooks or even an old picture frame to do this on any wall at home. An old frame with added picture hooks would give your vertical garden a very fancy finish too!</span></div>

<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">In summer water your fern(s) every 2-3 days. Do not saturate/ or puddle the water on top of your jar- as this will eventually cause your fern's roots to rot away. Just a light water will be enough! Sand/ pebbles in the bottom of your jar will help with drainage; they really only need a little dirt around them.</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">In winter, you will only need to water your fern once a week.</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">If you find that your fern is growing too big for your jars you could choose to </span><a href="http://www.ehow.com/how_7614715_trim-ferns.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">trim it</span></a><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> or use a bigger sized jar. A trim everynow and then will also help your fern stay healthy!</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Keep an eye out for brown spots on your fern fronds as this could be an indication that your fern may need to be relocated. Ferns like a little sun but not direct sun/heat. They need shade too!</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Fern's like the indoors too; you just need to make sure that you do not over-water because they will not dry out as easily.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Hello,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">It has been a while since I have done a tutorial on the "HBT blog" so I thought I would share a "Kettle- cleaning tutorial" that has been handed down through the generations in our family. My grandma first showed my mother how to do it and it was sooooo good I still do it today! It's hard not to spot the safety-yellow coloured Berri Lemon juice (since 1942) above but I can assure you this is not a sponsored post on behalf of Berri. It's just berri good ok ;-). Ha, no seriously, I am sharing it because I've been doing a little spring cleaning of late (go figure??) and thought if ever I had a trick worth sharing this might be it; it really works a treat on kettle/ teapot scale without using any harsh chemicals. For the record I have tried to be all hippie and use just plain lemon juice but it does not work, at all. You need to use the real lemon squeeze concentrate!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Pour Lemon squeeze directly into your kettle at least 2cm deep, swirl it around and close the lid. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> Pour a small amount of the squeeze into a small porcelain dish. Using a brush or cotton wool bud, also clean the outside of your kettle. This will remove any build-up and also make it look shiny and happy again.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Don't forget to swirl the lemon squeeze around regularly inside your jug so that it will reach the areas up high. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> Leave your lemon squeeze inside your kettle/ teapot for 1-2 hours, this is mine already looking very shiny after about 1 hour. You can even leave it overnight if you would like.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">When happy with the look of your kettle; rinse and boil your kettle a few times over to remove any lemon squeeze residue. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Do you too have any spring cleaning tricks that have been handed down through your family?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I made a chalk board
for one of my clients; it's ok to try it out on my kitchen first, right??
Love playing around with different looks and could not resist! I needed a
lil kitchen-y type accessory to go with a clock I had previously sourced and a
lovely canvas that my client already owned. I am happy to report that all three
look very fabulous together in her kitchen and make a lovely wall vignette. I will show you
the reveal over on my new site, very soon ;-).

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">It occurred to me oneday as I was zhooshing things around my house (as you do) that I did not own one single palm tree/ plant. How very un- Queensland of me! I have lived in Qld for over six years now and I instantly knew that I had to do something about it. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Do you like to decorate with plants?? I do and I think they create much decor warmth and calm for everyone to enjoy.
Here is my palm- plant purchase above; it is a Parlour Palm. Apparently and I do love a good quote ;-O "Research has also indicated that growing plants inside can effectively assist in filtering and improving air quality"- Pohlmans; I best get a dozen more!!! I think my palm looks very Queensland/ tropical, cheery and a lovely addition to my home.</span></span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Hello,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Did you catch the beautiful super moon last night? As you can see, it was a beauty! This is the view from our back deck, on a clear night we can see almost three entire buildings... no, you would never say that we have Brisbane city views however I do love that we enjoy a mini city glimpse or two ;-).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">I am so chuffed to report that I have just finished revamping one of my lovely antique wardrobes from <a href="http://hipbrownthings.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/bought-and-sold-by-suburban-stylist.html" target="_blank">last week</a>, I still have two more to complete. You should see the look of determination I am sporting right now! The Suburbans Stylist is on a mission to get her own wardrobe revamp's and storage issues out of the way. Can it be done during School holidays?? Watch this space lovely people, we shall see!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">How has your weekend been? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I do hope it has been lovely! I've been busy... doing a little wheeling and dealing. As you do; and as a result I now have a huge list of "To do's" and it's all a little bit overwhelming but in a good way offcourse. I don't know how it happened exactly but suddenly in the space of two days, my house is looking more like an antique store than a home.... seriously! I do believe that suburban stylist is still buying more wares than selling!! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> I am actually super smitten with all these new purchases; We have had storage issues for a while now, more specifically since our bathroom renovation. In order to make our new bathroom more spacious, we had to say goodbye to our hallway linen cupboard; it had amazing Tardis like capabilities, everything including the Christmas tree happily lived in that space. Anyhoo, thought I'd just share that I now have three beautiful antique cupboards and vintage dresser with mirror all waiting in line for a lil restoration (can't wait to show you!). I also have my new website and styling portfolio to finish in order to launch this next phase of my styling business. The upside is that I don't mind having lots to do at all and I am super excited about getting all of this completed!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have been quite preoccupied working on developing my new website... between you and I, I am a web novice so this project literally eats my time. I guess, there is always a huge learning curve when you embark on a new adventure too. Stay tuned, I am hoping that one day soon.... I will eventually be able to share some more news ;-0.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Now tell me, do you like to get the look for less? </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Well, this post is all over that!.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">Getting the look for less is one of my favorite things, mostly because I get to recycle, reuse and be creative all at the same time. As some of you would already know this makes my heart flutter and puts a huge smile on my face especially when the project is completed.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: small;">I wanted to create a wall vignette just like the one you see on the front page of this Elle Decoration UK magazine. For the record, it did not turn out exactly the same. The look on the magazine is all about lovely neutrals; it is subtle, interesting and beautiful all at the same time! My vignette did not achieve the same result however I definitely feel that I have put my own style and creative spin on things and that is very important too!</span></span></div>

I guess I just love the gift to last and like finding ways to remember thoughtfulness.

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">A girlfriend of mine, spotted this fabulous gem! She could see that it was very worthy of a revamp/ restyle and helped me rescue it from a road trip to the tip. It was all kinds of apricot and its doors were lined with old-style frosted glass... </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Do you like to give old things a new lease on life? I do! I particularly appreciate the hard work and craftsmanship you see in older style furniture. It’s rare that you see that kind of love in modern day, mass produced furniture. It is a huge, huge shame!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I sanded it back and painted it with a Dulux Antique white. I lightly distressed it for a very conservative, shabby chic look. I felt that it already had oodles of character and didn't need me to go overboard with a more dramatic look. I removed the glass inserts/ chipboard from the cupboard doors and for a more textured look lined them with chook wire. To achieve a sweet vintage-style finish, I also stencilled numbers on a few of the door knobs. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">There is something about this cupboard that I find very inspiring.

And I also love the autumn colours of this breakfast tray, be so gorgeous for a lil morning tea extravaganza. Orange and green palates do look so fabulous together!</span></span></div>

right) on Anzac day? I thought it kind of timely and special! I
think, I was also just very surprised to find some history in my own
backyard... as everything is so very modern these days. As you know, I do love a vintage bottle or two and I adore how rustic they are! Have you had any Antique/ thrifty adventures of late?? Do
tell me about them!<br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">As a general rule, I like to keep my blog posts mostly about all things interiors and inspiring if I possibly can; it is the voice that I am truly passionate about and the one that I am motivated to use... but please, allow me a quick whine (or wine is good too) if I may. The past week and half of our bathroom renovation has felt like an eternity. For many reasons (including our little family in tow) it is exhausting and I cannot wait until it is finally finished. I don't mean to sound dreary, just attempting to be at peace with life’s ups and downs, I guess. Maybe you also get the feeling that I am not really the outdoorsy type?? Yes, camping (i.e outdoor loo loo's and showers) for an extended period of time is possibly not for me!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> I realise this time will not last forever; it will pass and will be worth every ounce of pain. However I think the hardest thing is and as crazy as it sounds, I actually feel a little homeless without a bathroom in my house. Word is that I am a blessed creature of comfort and I think it’s quite true! Imagine if I were born pre 1950's where in-house toilets were uncommon, or even if I was actually homeless? Would I cope?? I don’t know; I hope so! What I do know is that I am indeed quite blessed to be finding this a difficult time in the first place and I see that! In the meantime, I am trying to enjoy the funny side to our outdoor living situation, and I hope our neighbour’s, bless them… will see it too ;-O.</span></span><br />

<h2 style="font-weight: normal;">
<u><b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Some random, possibly even helpful facts about about Portaloo's and showers. </span></span></b></u></h2>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Portaloo's need to be within 10meters of kerbside so that they may be serviced/ hmm emptied... however it is quite possible that your visitors may actually knock on both your front doors ;-). </span></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Get
used to venturing outside during the night and try to not wake up too
much so that you are able to get back to sleep more easily.</span></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Portaloo's
and Portashowers have no electricity, therefore your entire family will
need to shower before dark and invest in VERY fancy robes/ dressing gowns. </span></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Outdoor showers are more suited to private areas ok; just saying a high fence is a sensible idea and preferably away from your neighbour’s entertaining area...</span></span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Although the slogan is "Dunny's with dignity", bear with me... I am yet to discover the D for dignity in our outdoor dunny just yet!</span></span></li>
</ul>

<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;">As you can see, I am sharing the colour palate that I have chosen for our new bathroom renovation. Can you tell that I am getting just a little bit excited about it?! Just a wee bit ;-). </span><span style="font-size: small;">I have also been busy choosing bathroom accessories... most of these have to be organised before the tiles are laid so there are lots of decisions that need to be made early on. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I am still searching for a bathroom mirror and I am not feeling any of the modern ones that I found so far. I want the mirror to be a feature piece so am specifically after one with hmm... oodles of style and character. I would preferably like it to be rolling in that stuff! Fingers crossed I may have spotted a little something on gum tree, will let you know how I go.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I do heart white and olive and especially texture! My thoughts are that interior fashions will come and go but if I stick with what I love then I should be content for a very long time. What do you love most about your bathroom??<br />Rach xx </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Hello to you lovely ladies, </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">This week most of my projects are on hold... well, that is until I finish the current one I am working on. Boy oh boy, this one is taking some discipline not to wonder to some other needy "nook and cranny" of my house! I am not going to lie to you, making a couch cover is just no fun. Yes, the rewards will come when I get to enjoy the fruits of it actually being finished but until then, between you and me, I am not really feeling this job at all. Believe me, when I say that I have searched high and low to purchase one but unfortunately for our couch (yes it had to be our couch) it could not be done. Unfortunately, I have learned that some household styling/ renovation jobs involve some pain and one must grin and bear it. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Can you imagine the stories that this vintage ice bucket could tell? Yes, I did sneak in a quick vignette during a weak moment of distraction... A girl has got to take a little time out to play hasn’t she?? </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I am thinking it will glam up wine time with the girls quite nicely! Do tell me what projects you have going on this week? Rach xx</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">I thought, that I could simply peel back a few layers of wood </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">and then maybe I would find a layer of unaffected dry wood</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> and then it would look super fabulous. As you do! Unfortunately... </span></span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">each layer that I pulled back looked as water affected as the
next, it was also a tad smelly and I had to let it go. </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Do you think it was a case of wishful thinking? </span></span> </div>

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I have to admit, that I was quite attached to the idea of </span><span style="font-size: small;">resurrecting this table and I wanted to salvage it instead of a life of dumpster rot.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">The
silver lining is that I have managed to salvage these cigar legs. </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">I am thinking, that with a good sanding and a new paint job these legs could look quite rad paired with a lil something else maybe. So whilst this
table itself is no success story for <a href="http://hipbrownthings.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/revamps-in-suburbia.html" target="_blank">The suburban stylist</a> maybe these
legs </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">soon will be!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New";">I
did not intend for things to be so quiet around here this week. So on that
note, let me show you how productive I have been. I started off the week with a
quick vintage lamp revamp. This lamp was all kinds of $3 ugly, seriously! It had a
coffee- cream light shade with pink puffy lace and the base was a nasty shade
of maroon. No, for obvious reasons I do not do before shots on this blog ;-O! Having said that, I still think it was quite a thrifty bargain and $3 well spent! Here is my vamp. I chose this lovely neutral grey
linen fabric to recover it and then sprayed the base a light grey (it
looks purple-ish in the above snap but it is actually more of a soft grey). Sprayed
ceramics do come up a treat!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Hello,</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Sharing a table with you that my hubby made over the weekend... I know, he is rather clever isn't he. He whipped it up using wood he found from underneath our house. I love how it’s very country- industrial without overly trying! As you can see I gave it a quick vintage re-style because I do think fusions between these particular styles work really well together! He made it for our kitchen to house my handbag; just between you and I, I think my handbag kind of annoys him ;-0. I am not sure that we are in full agreeance on the finer styling details for this table just yet. It's an ongoing tango that we are having right now.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I
am thinking, if I find a simple housing solution for my handbag then
maybe we can find a suitable styling purpose for this table that would
please us both… </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I can see this table working in our work space as a inspiration table to house those ever changing, everyday items that often inspire me in some way. That would be fun right?</span></span> </div>

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Or alternatively as my husband suggested I too can also see it working in our kitchen especially if we popped some wheels on it and made it into a Kitchen/ Tea trolley. Then it too could house everyday items/ things that inspire myself and my husband! </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">That would be fun too, right??</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">Hello,</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">I have been busy getting a new Hip Brown design off the ground. It actually takes a while to release a new product; many aspects need to be absolutely perfect before you go into full promotion mode. Prototypes need perfecting and then they also need to undergo their own form of testing. Photo's in particular take a great deal of perfecting and resizing for online shops. I do enjoy it though! You can see a sneaky peek of the Hip Brown number wall- pendant's which have been hand screen- printed in the picture below.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Hello, </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">It's been raining allot here in Brisvegas, so I have been entertaining myself by moving a few things around and zooshing up my home a little. I do enjoy fussing about with my latest most favourite decor items! None of it looks quite perfect just yet but hopefully it will soon. I love it when you have finally found the exact look you were after and it is only a matter of time before you find a way to make it completely work. It's a process! Right now, I love these vintage books that were a recent purchase from the "Life line book festival". It was their beach-y blue and green shades that I was initially most attracted to however I love their subjects too. One book is named "Good Behaviour", it is all about the importance of good manners, old fashioned style manners... I am raising two little men</span><span style="font-size: small;"> so I am thinking maybe this book could come in handy or NOT we shall see. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; font-size: small;">Is it raining where you are too? I do feel very sad for all of those people affected by floods yet again; it must be very heart breaking to walk in their shoes. I feel very lucky and blessed to be fussing around my safe, dry and imperfect home.</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;"> xx</span></span></div>
