saturday.

summer arrived today. a little too early for my liking but it was such a beautiful day, i almost forgave her. i spent most of it baking in the kitchen & working next to a hot oven which wasn't exactly ideal but with a cookie order for a 3 year old, i couldn't disappoint the birthday boy. on the way to the supermarket this morning i picked up a few goodies from the oppy, $8 later and i'm on my way to making some christmas baskets full of vintage treasure that i hope to sell at the december rummage. tomorrow is all about making birthday bunting (for a special mama) and a naughty shorts photoshoot. may even whip up a batch of carrot cake whoopie pies and with another beautiful day in store, this pale skinned, freckle faced cake baker is spending it outside in the glorious sunshine...hawaii is 12 days and counting! have a lovely weekend!

won't be needing 5 bed layers for much longer. it's all about the vintage flat sheets now!

picked up this cute duo...straight from the 70's with original packaging!

perfect picnic plates, expect to see these in a christmas basket coming soon.

the basket haul. pink and grey one stole my heart.

love a bit of hollywood melamine. summer colours perfect for picnic behaviour.

cookie explosion! stars and trains were order of the day.

playing with smarties and royal icing is highly underrated.
