Fabbo Friday - Fab & Lovely Finds







Hello,
Hope your week is going well. I've been so busy this week with the renovation and there hasn't been as much time to work on my mystery novel as I would have liked. It's the last week of school holidays in Sydney and I will miss having Daisy around when she returns to her preschool. We've had enormous fun this week together playing fairy games and visiting op shops and toyshops together. It's always a privilege when she lets me into her imaginative worlds.
I've been working through a maze of wallpaper, linens, storage and curtains: the pressure is now on as we are shortly returning to our inner-city home. I'm very sad about that as we have enjoyed being by the beach so much!
I thought I would share a few prints I've picked up for Daisy's room. I bought Ava's Tea Party without realising there is a very tragic story behind it. It makes me value this beautiful print even more and I feel really honoured to have it a part of Daisy's room. I do love the work of this British illustrator a lot as she creates the magic, joy and innocence of childhood. It is such a precious time and I never understand people wanting their children to grow up too quickly. You can read about my lovely print

The following two prints, Tea for Two and Black Bunny Spell are by the Queen of Fab, Emily Martin of Inside A Black Apple. How can one young girl be so stylish, beautiful, clever and talented? I think Emily has performed her own Black Bunny Spells as she is just so gifted!
And they are my Fab finds of this week. I think they are pretty special and Ava's Tea Party in particular takes my breath away with the beauty that can come from such a tragic story.
Enjoy your weekend. Thanks for visiting me. Hope you find plenty of moments to relax, read beautiful books and reflect on beautiful art.
