I love it Julie. It's very beautiful. Would go well with the blue carpet in our bedroom.  :D

Thanks girls.  Yes it is a bit pricey so am glad you pointed that out about the buttoning Cornish.  I just love the look and also how it will hide the base of our ensemble.  :D

It's beautiful JO.  I've never seen one like that before. Are you using existing bedside tables etc?

Bee, I wish it did!  ;D

I'm not sure what the material is, but it looks and feels very much like linen, really lovely.  :D

CP, will go with what I have first off, but like anything, once I get something new, I will want to add to it! Will see how we go though.  ;D

I just spent over $200 on bulk nuts, seeds and dried herbs from Gaganis Bros - am  going to parcel them up in snap lock bags and freeze them to stop them going rancid. 

And then I spent $120 on a 25L bulk container of the environmentally-friendly dishwashing liquid that I really like - heaps cheaper than buying it in 600ml bottles.  The local health food shop ordered it in for me especially, and then gave me a further 10% discount  ;D

Am thinking of going clothes shopping today - have lost over 15kg in the past few months, and my clothes are getting baggy.  But I am scared of how much a new wardrobe will cost me  :o

Expensive day for you Karen. Well done on the weight loss, where dieting and exercising more or just watching what you eat more?

Definitely treat yourself to new clothes, I always feel so much more comfortable and confident in clothes that fit well and you deserve a treat.
