Whitepod Hotel

Now, I'm the first to admit that I'm not too keen on sub zero temperatures.  However, I think I'd be willing to put all that aside for a night at Whitepod Hotel. 

Nestled in the Swiss Alps, Whitepod takes "camping" to a whole new level.  With 15 domed igloo inspired pods surrounded by 7km's of ski slopes and 3 private ski lifts, this is one for the bucket list folks.

Take me (and my hot water bottle) there ASAP....

The only way is up....

Hi all,

I'd love my first post for 2012 to be an upbeat, feel good message, but sadly our Christmas break was horribly sad.  We lost not one, but two cherished family members and as a result we're all feeling a little jaded (to say the least).

As we all know, life must march on and from where I'm standing, the only way is up. Let's hope it looks and feels something like this...

Happy holidays...

We're heading off on our Christmas holiday tomorrow and will be back early in the New Year with lots of new goodies to share.  Next year will see a bounty of gorgeous products arrive in the online store and we can't wait to share them with you.

Until then, have a wonderful break and make sure you take some time to stop and let the world drift by...

Happy holidays folks.

Hudson Bay Point Blankets

Sometimes you stumble across something and it stops you in your tracks, for me it may be a dreamy image, a poignant quote, or perhaps...a blanket!

I discovered Hudson Bay Point Blankets some time ago and for some reason they just keep popping up on a blog I might read or on a Pinterest pinboard - surely it's a sign! One day I will own one of these little beauties, they don't come cheap folks, but boy it would be worth it...

Gorgeous huh?

Our namesake in colour..

I simply had to share these hand painted deer antlers by artist Cassandra Smith - fantastic huh!

Cassandra is based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and hand paints the antlers with the most brilliant colour combinations.

Such great design, I could buy them all!





PS Oh, and just in case you're wondering, every year deer shed their antlers and re-grow new ones.  The antlers are simply found lying on the forest floor...nice.

A new love in my life...


Today is my birthday....nothing monumental, just a mid decade birthday that would normally slip past without too much fanfare. However, one gift changed all this, a drop dead gorgeous bicycle from my better half.  I have a small obsession with bicycles, it's a little strange I know, but I'm desperate to now fit her out with a gorgeous tan leather saddle bag and begin the search for the perfect understated basket.

Summer is on our doorstep and I can't wait to see how far and wide my new tredly might take me.  Fun times ahead people...
