Some new bathroom favourites... I'm in love xx

I'm so excited to receive my, Smith's rosebud salve in the mail next week.  I'm loving the adore beauty website!!  I just recently bought some of Megan Gale's tinted daywear plus as well... OMGosh, it's so super fantastic for full 30+ sun- protected, glamour-gardening!  Teamed up with a little waterproof mascara and some napoleon eyeliner gel... I can look lovely in my lovely garden - that reminds me, I really need to get some trendy gumboots on layby for next year, sheesh, I could have really used them last winter.  I'm bringin' gumboots back... yeah!

I'm looking forward to buying some Moroccan oil hair treatment with my pocket money next week... I have been looking at it from time to time, and I've read some seriously good reviews for it lately.  A little pricey, but I'm sure It'll be worth every penny! 

Good Day Sunshine!!!

So happy the sun is out again!  Looking forward to a very productive day today... Mumma Bear and Baby Bear are heading out to do a little thrifting while we wait for the sheets to dry in the lovely sunshine.  It looks like we are going to be very busy Bears this weekend also,  Inside painting and sanding, and we have our new linnen cupboard arriving tomorrow!!!!   So excited to be organised again!! 

What Mumma is cranking while doing the housework this afternoon;

THE DOOBIE BROTHERS...  and a  little glass of wine should finish the afternoon nicely!!!!!

The beautiful weekend... what we did!

We started our weekend off with a beautiful breakfast with eggs from our VERY OWN chickens!  Then we took Wilfred for his very first drive in the back of the ute to pick up a bale of hay.  Then we spent the rest of the weekend painting the patio and retaining wall, and made a floating timber seat for the ugly concrete one that was already there... all we have to do is put the roof on and figure our what we are going to put down for flooring.  Decking or paving????  That is the question!  On Sunday we watered our lovely spring garden, started up the HQ and listened to some tunes while Papa bear tinkered with his toy... Tee hee! xx

What a splendid day!



A
Layla and I had the sweetest morning together... we learned about some oldwares, found some pretty treasures, met some lovely people and were invited to some more up-comming markets... All in all the morning was lovely and sunny, and Layla and I so much enjoyed each other's company, (a rare treat)!

I picked up some little surprises for gifts during the year next year... Loving the vintage and handmade culture.  I'm feeling so inspired and motivated... hopefully it lasts long enough to get through  the next months of painting paperwork and furniture restoring...  Thank goodness Papa Bear is feeling better now! xx

Market Girl Boutique Markets – Perth

Market Girl Boutique Markets – Perth

Oh ANOTHER market to look forward to!!! YAY! I can't wait for this one too... I wish I knew wether I was going to have a neice or a nephew in January to pick out some cute stuff... I might anyway :) I found this on http://www.madeit.com.au/index.asp It's like the equivalent of an Aussie Etsy. Loving all the exciting outings we have decided on for the next few months xx

Miss Johnson's Vintage and Handmade Market...

Hunny Bear and Mumma Bear are heading off to the market tomorrow, while Pappa Bear and Baby Bear stay at home.  I have been waiting for this market since we arrived in Perth... So excited to see what treasures we can find for our family and maybe a little gift for ourselves... :) Looking forward to foraging through the old bottles and other precious old things, I love the thought of how old they are and where they have come from... the mind boggles!! Treasure hunting is definitely one of my favourite things to do... I might have been a pirate in a past life? x   missjohnsonsvintageandhandmademarket.blogspot.com
