flowers in her hair

isn't she lovelie? WOWEEE!! talk about a beauty of a bride. and the farmstead festivity! golly. i nearly- almost proposed a toast of forever and ever to the unbeknown, "you're the one that i want" pair of these, "let's live happily here onwards" wedding snaps. selecting a few to woo you with was no trouble whatsoever. UMMMING over which not to include on the other hand was rather tricky (i'm sure you'll understand the pickle i was in at first sight). don't fret!! there are more and more and... "my better half" piccies from this wonderous day of celebration in this album. ps. don't forget to sign the guest list. i did, (do). jessie xx

let us race to the roof.

    

i have an idea, let us race to the roof. bring blankets. we will lie together and look at the stars. whisper. laugh. forget the world we left on the ground. 

leveling all spoons.

hellllloo!! and yes, this is exactly how i would greet you at this particular time. wowee!! last day jitters and a big eventual moving to-do list i suppose. at least my weardrobe is almost packed and parceled. sorry for being a bit invisible around here this past week and a few days. if you miss me as much as i miss blogging in my bed, cup of tea warming my fingers in between sentences, then you might like to call in to the Spoonful zine shop. issue 7, about all things magic and of course happy is new to the shelf and my words fill its (or one of its) pages. uh-huh! i'm tickled pink. okie dokie enough nattering. let's have a wonderful weekend friendliest of friends. jessie x x

 talk of cats and kittens. sleepy eyes and floral linen. canned beans and easy reading.

some things, the day before and yesterday.

hello, hello sandwich.

friends! my number one favourite mt loving, pom-pom glueing, paper fan making blogger, Ebony Bizys is coming to Melbourne and she's bringing her craft cupboard (well, all that will fit in her polka dot suitcase)! and if that news itself doesn't make you do cartwheels, she's hosting her very own Hello Fabric and Hello Paper workshops. seats are as limited as musical chairs so slowpokes will be left standing surly. if you wish to join me in sewing a kitsch cushion cover and a mini pocket tissue case click here and QUICKLY!! see you soon, Hello Sandwich!

a travelogue.

saving every last penny in an attempt to fluff my feathers, spread my wings and take flight come the beginning of our other half's cold season, Similar Winters, a short film by Koo Chia Meng for Issue 1 of Casual Days warms my blue hands and gives me good reason to eat frozen peas and drink instant coffee.

29. 2. 2012

an extra day for us to share, what a special treat. mark it with a cross and be sure to make it count! rain, hail or shine i'm thanking my lucky stars. 24 hrs more than before... means indefinite time for sweet potato salad, cups of instant coffee and crosswords. 29 is by far the best day of the second month don't you think?! jessie x
