And so we all (two little nephews, a brother, sister and brother-in-law, and a husband) paid a visit to the sand and surf. I couldn't have asked for a better Sunday morning! <br />

Kids books especially have some very cool artwork that often gets lost. What a lovely way to brighten a wall!<br />
<br />
I think this is something that could definitely work in any room - I have so many books I want to show off. Mental note already taken for future house interior type decorating activities.<br />

My sister and her family are about to head off to live in New Brunswick, Canada - hence the accumulation of all things Aussie - including the pictured Akubra. She's also started a blog called <a href="http://snowballsandlamingtons.blogspot.com/">Snowballs and Lamingtons</a> which I'm looking forward to reading. Not looking forward to them leaving though. *sigh*<br />

Nice one Buderim!<br />

Actually we are all a little on the rainy side this summer in Queensland so I could do with a pair myself! Check out this gorgeous selection - I'm a little in love.<br />

We were very lucky and weren't inundated like some people, but we are thinking of those who are going to have to rebuild their lives with everything swept away or covered in stinking mud. <br />
<br />
It's been so wonderful to see how people are pitching in to help, whether it's <a href="http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html">donating money</a>, volounteering time to help clean up, or running appeals to raise funds (like the <a href="http://brisstyle.blogspot.com/">BrisStyle handmade ark appeal</a>, the <a href="http://wwwwildthingsofnoosa.blogspot.com/">Wild Things of Noosa</a> hand made auction and the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/AusDisasterRelief?ref=ls_profile">Australian Disaster Relief Shop</a> on Etsy).<br />
<br />
Our thoughts are with you Queensland on this long road to recovery.<br />

And then I'll spend the rest of the year working on my technique (on textiles and paper) and hopefully making very cool things like these birdy cushions by <a href="http://justineellis.co.uk/">Justine Ellis</a> as found on <a href="http://printpattern.blogspot.com/2010/12/designer-justine-ellis.html">Print & Pattern</a>.<br />

I'll post my progress here..and with you as witnesses I'm sure to stick to it...right? What are you doing creatively this year?<br />

I saw these cute Australian themed cards on <a href="http://www.jamtales.com.au/Products/Happy-Christmas-greeting-x-10.aspx">Jam Tales</a>. Love them and wish I'd found them earlier!<br />

The next version of my home office is going to look like something along these lines. I especially love the blackboard as I'm always wanting to scribble things down. How could you not create amazing things at a desk like this!?Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846160163008521864.post-30842253703561883772010-12-12T03:11:00.000+10:002010-12-12T03:11:57.011+10:00A red bird at ChristmasWhen I first moved to America, I remember going for a walk just after Christmas time, and saw this fiery red flash of colour fly by me on the dreary grey day. I actually managed to get a few pictures, but nothing close up so I could see what type of bird this was. I hadn't really thought about that day until now, when I was searching for my book-club's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Redbird-Christmas-Novel-ebook/dp/B000FC2MAO/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?ie=UTF8&m=AG56TWVU5XWC2&qid=1292086651&sr=8-1">book</a> for December to download on my kindle. There on the front cover was the red bird - a Cardinal! <br />

</div>Remember home made Christmas decorations? You know the ones you used to make at school or on the weekend using foil, glitter (lots of glitter), gold and silver pens, cotton wool, and I'm sure toilet rolls made an appearance. Very messy but very fun!<br />
<br />
Paper chains were my speciality and we used to make them as loooong as possible and string them all over the house. Highly festive for us and I'm sure mum was happy it kept holiday crazed children busy for hours at a time. <br />
<br />
I found a great story on <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/dc/merry-making-nearlynocost-holiday-decorations-133530">Apartment Therapy</a> about nearly 'no-cost' Christmas decorations including paper chains (see above photo) and cut out paper snowflakes (I so remember making those!). It's definitely worth wandering over to the website to have a look. <br />
