Inside my home – The lounge
Posted by Emma Patterson on
Hi! Come in, come in. Come through to my lounge. Take a seat. Can I make you a cuppa? :) A couple of weeks ago I showed you inside my guest room/office. Today its the living area. Although it isn't where I'm supposed to be working (given such a great office) it is where I spend most of my time. I love this room!

Perfect Pins - Pretty Party Table
Posted by Emma Patterson on

An Australian party styling company called Sweet Style has put together this perfect party table. Neon pink simple shapes on an off-white backdrop makes this scene simple but striking. And is that an igloo ice-cream cake in the centre? Is there anything about this party that we DON'T like? The answer is: no.
