I have switched my first colour love of pink back to red. Red is just darker pink anyway! I am just loving having 'pops' of colour around the house. The dresser is the dining area is one of my favourite spots at the moment. Its all about the colour!!!
I looked after my friend Nancy's girls on Sunday afternoon while she prepared a feast for their Chinese New Year's Eve. My child minding turned into another little 'learn to sew school'!! Here are the girls with the lavender hearts they stitched together using fun felt, embroidery floss and a button!
Yesterday I spent the day preparing for my new Korean home stay son and loading items to sell on Trade Me and the Rose Room website.
Today the Princess has a little friend over to play, they are downstairs with the Barbies. We raced around like mad things this morning posting parcels and buying a new school bag and school stationary. The Princess is going to a different school this year. We have been lucky enough to get her into a lovely and hard to get into Christian School. It is much smaller than where she was and is more family orientated.
For the rest of the day I am going to continue with my stock updates and make a few more fabric flower pins before I move on the next project.

I love the pop of red with that turquoise colored scale. You are such a good mom. Sharing crafts and sewing with these little girls is something they will never forget. I love modge podge, but am so sloppy at it that I get it all over my fingers! How does this happen when I use a brush?
What cute girls and their hearts are darling. I love the red heart hanging from your hutch and what a neat scale. I used Mod Podge for the first time last year and make a Halloween tray...fun stuff...hugs, Linda
It's amazing isn't it the huge succes of owoh. I joined the caravan on Sunday, and I'm over a 100 comments already! Kind of addictive too.
I love your dresser, and the cheery girls with their hearts. Good luck on selling!

I love the reds with the aquas! So pretty!
what a pretty display in your dinning room. I love that you taught your friends children to sew. Such an important lesson. Since travelling back to 1955 I have learned how many skills I am lacking in in the homecare department, but am learning, quickly. Nice blog.
I love the hutch! of course I should know you love red and pink Me too :)!
Cute girls over at your place. Isn't it nice to feel good about where the princess will be in school?!
I love the dresser with all the pretties! I too am a RED lover & like you said it's just another shade of pink. Your friends children are beautiful.
Good luck to the Princess in her lovely new Christian school!!!:)
So glad she gets to go.
Enjoy all your bits and bobs! I have loved Mod Podge since forever!
That's so cool you're teaching the girls to sew, sewing is a lost art...

Hi, just stopped by your nice blog; I was in NZ last September-October, loved it, despite the COLD weather in Fiordland and elsewhere- Brrrrrr!! In April I'll be there again, Auckland and N Island this time, and hope it might be a bit warmer! Heading for the Rotorua geothermal wonders, I think. Ciao.
Nice blog. I'll be back to visit again. And thanks for entering my giveaway.
