I wish... I had butterflies on my wall

My wall would be perfect with these butterflies flitting around on it. It's going to have to be my next house though as I'm not sure this vision of loveliness would work in the current one. Because as nice as our home is, I think wallpaper such as this would need to be in a house overflowing with character and uniqueness.  

Watch out Trove wallpaper, I'll be knocking on your door before you know it.

I've been on holidays...

...and today I wish I could be still making snow angels like I did in the New Zealand Alps.

Have you ever made snow angels? They are ridiculous fun, although I wasn't wearing waterproof trousers and ended up with a snow drenched backside! The ride back down the mountain wasn't so comfortable after that...

Spring is just around the corner...

Less than a month to go for Spring in Australia to start!  Growing up, when the 1st of September came around, I know I would get so excited knowing our summer holidays were coming up which meant trips to the beach, and a hot Christmas!  And how about those Myer adds for their Spring/Summer collections?  That's when you know that the warmer weather is just around the corner!

I received my weekly "Myer One" email, and checked out their website and saw their new TV commercial for the Spring/Summer 2010/11!  ...(Apart from a terrible wave of homesickness) I felt really excited for my family and friends knowing the beautiful weather and holiday fun in store for them!  I am also LOVING all the Wayne by Wayne Cooper pieces!  Enjoy!

I wish that today I could...

Stroll with this lace parasol...

indulge in a High Tea here...

relax in this Californian living room...

and read this beautifully illustrated book (one of my favourites growing up).

One of my heart's desires...

On 'A Cup of Jo' today, she has featured "EmersonMade clothing".

This picture completely and utterly captures where I want to be living (beautiful country setting), what I'd love to be doing (be outdoors, have my own chooks to collect eggs from, pick fresh veggies from my own veggie garden) on my mornings/afternoon after work, and enjoy the surroundings on the weekend.  Sit out on a porch with a cuppa tea, have lovely family dinners outside... *ahhh* Completely and utterly irresistible!
