I have just had a few pretty full on weeks - we moved house, my daughter was admitted to hospital with a severe asthma attack, I had a freelance illustration job go horribly pear shaped, I ran my first half marathon and I had no internet connection for 10 days! All better now - my daughter, Liberty, has recuperated, I got the illustration sorted out and have the web up and running in my new studio space, YAY. I haven't quite unpacked everything yet and am still on the look out for inspiring interior shots - found these from: emmas design blog, a beautiful living and skonahem. I should be unpacking and sorting things out while my kids are out the house but I decided to make myself a cup of tea, sit down and loose myself in lovely blogland for a little while. AHH so good to be online again. Paula x

Congratulations on the half marathon! I ran my first one too this month so I appreciate all the effort and training it takes! Here's hoping the end of June is smoother for you :)

Hope your daughter is feeling better. I have asthma....very unpleasant!

Love the look and feel of your pictures. Very different to the colourful corner on your page.
I was thinking of painting the walls black in my studio and writing/drawing/sticking/painting all my ideas around me....could get quite hectic after a while. ha ha
Hope this week improves and you get settled soon :-))

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!
