I love this house

last night I spent a lovely evening chilling out at my friend Beths house
we normally do a bit of crafting whilst our children play
she has a little girl who loves to craft so I like to spend some girly time with her (my 3 boys just don't seem interested in dolly pegs?)
I asked beth if she would mind me taking a few pics to share with you, she has such lovely things
and this is just a snippet of her home








cushion made by Beth at a Donna Wilson event

I will probably pinch these on my next visit


she loves my critters



this new seat covering was our craft project for last night

I love to see other peoples styles. seeing them in 'real life' can be so much better than in any interiors books. getting up close to see the details on things you love, checking out the books that they like to look at.
many moons ago, when my blogging had just started, I did a post about OOB'x house.
pop over here and take a look.

tonight I will mostly be eating healthily (poop) and making things for my next craft fair....more about that very soon. 
thanks for reading x

  4. Oh dear. I am a smitten kitten. Love the hot pink.

    I have three boys, too, so love a bit of girly to offset the boy.

    Great blog.
