Bliss

By Anonymous -




I had a little quite time to myself as I received a parcel in the post from the UK today - the brand new Oh Comely magazine. I poured myself a cup of tea, helped myself to a slice of lemon tart and sat down to pour over the brand new ink scented pages. I still do love print even in this online saturated world. This is a fairly new mag: 'oh comely is a magazine about people and their quirks and their creativity, rather than money and what it can buy.It's a magazine that inspires people to be creative, talk to their neighbours and explore new things, rather than buy stuff or lose weight.'

It's a great mag - piles of inspiration, a good read but most importantly it was a little slice of blissful peace and quite for me today : )

Hmm, I found this post very interesting. I've seen the magazine many times but I've never picked it up. You definately stirred my curiosity enough for me to have a peak inside and maybe buy it next time. Thanks:)

My Home in the October Country Style magazine!

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!
