We love all things Queeny!

By Anonymous -








I lived in London for 8 years, my first two daughters were born there and I hold a British passport. I don't consider my self to be British but I do have very strong ties and a soft spot for the UK. All the Diamond Jubilee celebrations on the telly have made me feel a little nostalgic for Old Blighty. I had a look around my house and was amazed to find that I have quite a royal collection! I have my old vintage Union Jack flag out and all my Queeny bits and pieces to make me feel part of the celebrations happening on the other side of the world. Happy Diamond Jubilee everyone and enjoy the festivities! P xxx

I love your collection. In five days it will be 1 year since I landed in London. I fell in love with it. I have been a fan since Charles and Diana were engaged.
I have a few items. I admired Princess Diana and follow all things royal. I enjoyed the Jubilee. I daydream all the time about living there :)

What an awesome collection! I must admit the Jubilee has made me feel a wee bit homesick :-)

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!
