Busy Busy

Sorry I will be a bit quiet over the next week or so. My focus this week is on mt etsy shop as i change my smaller sticker designs over to sticker sheets. With Julian away, school runs, playgroup, orders and everything else I'm not finding much time in the day. But I am around so I'm still here to answer your messages and emails.

Whilst I'm quiet check out 'My Home' tab and have a home tour via photos or have a cooking day and try some of the super easy recipes in the "Recipes' tab.

Hope you are having a lovely week!



PS. Little sneak peek of some of my designs on their new sheets... so colourful and pretty!

Colour Pop: Navy & Green

I love navy blue and green separately so putting them together is a beautiful combination. I actually just used this colour combo in my planner last week (see instagram). This combination can be timeless and looks great with stripes. I think it suits a living space, office, master bedroom or a boys bedroom.

The Block: Week 5 Living & Dining

Living  and dining week came with lots of dramas this week. I feel the judges were particularly harsh this week as well but their scores did not match their comments. None of them were stand out to me.... I like bits of pieces of each one. It is week's like these that make me think the wrong couples made it onto The Block. I liked Ayden & Jess's dining room and Dea & Darren's lounge room best.
The most drama free couple this week was Charlotte & Josh and despite having one point taken away they still won. Their first win!

FIRST PLACE: Charlotte & Josh

Bush Onion Dreaming Artwork, Bromeliad Bookends, Timberwolf Tray, Fletcher Magnifier, Valette Carafe and Tom Dixon Pendant

SECOND PLACE: Ayden & Jess

Fruit Bowl, Denis Chair, Marble Candle, Gilbert Bulldog Print, Alexa Armchair and Ethnicraft Oak Rack

THIRD PLACE: Tim & Anastasia 

Adele Pendant, Gunmetal Boyd Side Table, Casa Armchair, Boyd Cocktail Table, Prisma Buffet and Enzo Table

LAST PLACE: Dea & Darren

Bells Candle, Vase Tumbler, Shape Print and Ocean Round Table

DIY Marble Coasters

I have been meaning to do this project for a while now. I have loved these hexagon marble tiles since I saw them on The Block last year. Now I can use them in my home as coasters. These coasters work out to be around $3 each... bargain!

WHAT YOU NEED:
Sheet of 110mm Hexagon Tiles (I got mine from HERE - in honed)
Sheet of Adhesive Felt (I got mine from Spotlight)
Scissors

Step 1: Remove each tile from the mesh backing

Step 2: You can see all the edges are rough from the glue used to stick to mesh. I cut mine back with scissors but then all used a sanding block to smooth the edges some more.

Step 3: Cut the adhesive felt into rectangles and attach to the back of each tile

And now your have gorgeous marble coasters to use in your home!

Recipe: Rocky Road Pancakes

Pancakes are a delicious treat breakfast in our home. One morning my husband put mini marshmallows in the kids pancakes. This got my mind ticking so I added choc chips and peanuts to create rocky road pancakes. My son loves to add jam to his after which completes rocky road taste if you like berry in yours. These are sugar overload but fantastic as a treat or dessert.

ROCKY ROAD PANCAKES

Makes 12

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup Self-Raising Flour
1 cup Milk
1 Egg
3 TBS Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Essence

Choc Chips
Unsalted Peanuts
Mini Marshmallows

METHOD:
1) Place all ingredients into a bowl or jug that mixture can be poured from.
2) Whisk all ingredients until combined and smooth
3) Heat non stick frying pan over medium heat. Add butter or spray oil and pour mixture in the pan
4) Once bubbles start to appear on the pancakes sprinkle on mini marshmallow, choc chips and peanuts then flip them over. Turn heat down to low-medium
5) Once golden on both sides transfer to a plate
6) Repeat step 3-5 until all the mixture has been used.
