the one... with a trip to versaille

Versaille was a personal favourite for me.  I spent a full day there and even though I was completely exhausted by the end of the day - and you can see it in my face - I didn't want to leave.

the one... with a little shelving project

I've had a project sitting there to be finished for a couple of months now and I'm happy to say that it's finished!

The project was to install a picture rail from Ikea above my bed.

The tricky little part was to cut out a piece of the moulding that runs floor to ceiling but with a little bit of patience and slowly cutting with the saw, the gap appeared.  From there it was straight forward.

I'm still tweeking the frames which I think will an ongoing thing.

I have 2 more smaller rails to put up in the lounge room so I'll be back soon with photos of them.

the one... with a winter warmer

I don't know about you but I don't deal with Winter very well.

I know this will sound strange coming from someone who lives in Queensland but I can tell you it does get cold and living near the water it gets pretty windy.

BUT what I do love about Winter is the chance to get out my boots and the flannelette sheets.  I love my trusty white set but I needed another set to alternate with.

I popped into Big W recently and picked up this set and for $34 (double) what a bargain!!

Nighty night.
