Some June Wallpaper Loving

Dear Glamour Girls

I love a good wallpaper, I dream of one day having a house with each room swathed in Florence Broadhurst wallpaper, I particularly love using vintage wallpaper in my papercrafting especially the flocked and embossed variety. This recent acquisition will make up Frock Part II available in store on June 20. I really can't decide which side I like the best the gorgeous aqua roses on the front or the embossed natural imprint on the other side ....

Those Doris Days

Dear Glamour Girls

A fresh batch of Those Doris Days are on their way. Shabby and sweet each kit will include some 1930's anagrams, aged to perfection these are seriously divine, here's a little glimpse ....





Getting excited about the reopening - lots of treasures to share

Who Makes You Weak At The Knees?

Dear Glamour Girls,

Well we are finally back on deck with emails working again, if you have been waiting for an email from us a big THANK YOU for your patience we are working through our inbox as quickly as possible.

The studio renos are coming along with the painting finished and the floors half done. At the moment Ruby St is spread throughout our dining/ loungeroom, at least I have an excuse this time :)

Here's a piccie of the colour and what would be one of my favourite parts of our house the old wooden shutters mind you they are an absolute pain to paint, I'm still going. The studio is the old deck which my boy enclosed, what can I say he's definately a keeper :)



Which brings me to our competition. Ruby St will be reopening on Saturday 20th June and to celebrate we are having a leading man competition. Who's your favourite leading man? Who makes you weak at the knees?
