Wouldn't it be great if this was all you had to do in the morning?

What a difference a day makes

Last week we had temperatures that hovered around 27C. Tomorrow the temperature is going to be 1C. What the......?

I supposed it is good as the nice weather made me panic that I hadn't even sent for my gardening catalogues. Now at least I feel as if I have time to catch up and order some plants.

I'm going to rip out some of the plants that I have never been that fond of in the garden and replace them with I don't know what.

Sweet Paul

Can these images from Sweet Paul magazine be more beautiful?

School Break

Today is the last day of the school break. I am kind of relieved. It is difficult to work and be entertaining at the same time. We didn't travel anywhere because I was still working, but we managed to have some fun and even got in a day of cross country skiing about 40 minutes outside of Montreal. I think we were lucky as it has gotten so mild, the snow is no longer good for skiing.

Rubber stamps in the shop

Just added some rubber stamps in the shop. Some gorgeous pink gingham gift bags to follow shortly.

Love

I have been coveting anything by Clare Vivier for a while now, but when I saw this tote on her website, it was love at first sight.

Happy Thursday - gift bags

I've been very lazy about stocking my shop. Too much going on in real life. But I haven't been completely slack, I have been coming up with ideas and items to create.

I have been working on these little gift bags that will be in the shop very soon. I am happy with how they look, now I have to silkscreen little Eiffel Towers on them. They are great for little thank you gifts. I will also be adding fleur de lys confetti that will come in one of these little bags.
