...I just didn't expect it to be so soon!

I woke up early on a grey Saturday morning to head to the shops, looking for some craft supplies.

Of course I had to come across with the Mid-season Sale signs and I couldn't help but checking them out.

I was frustrated after trying 5 pairs of jeans with so success. I don't know what is it, but after one year living in Australia I still could't find a pair of pants that fit me...

So I turned to skirts, and got it right with a black one, that will be perfect for when I go back to working in a corporate environment.


And this see-through blouse was love at first sight, and it will look lovely with a basic top underneath.

I'm currently working in a cafe, which is great, but far from being my dream job...
I love knowing all the customers by name and getting to know them a little bit more every day, but wearing the same boring basic black clothes over and over again sucks! I can't wait to go back to wearing different and more interesting clothes everyday! (but I'm sure I'll eventually miss not having to choose what to wear in the morning)

What do I love the most about Easter? The "post-Easter" specials on the supermarkets.
There are chocolate eggs and bunnies for every taste at very appealing prices. It's hard to resist so much cheap chocolate! :)

And then there are great finds, like these Easter Edition m&m's with a 50% discount. I can totally see them displayed in a clear bowl, in a baby shower party table.

In pastel colours! How cute are these?

I love long weekends. Besides having time to rest and relax, I can always find some time to do something productive.
This long weekend, between Easter lunches, a swim at the beach and the usual weekend chores, I had plenty of time to work on new party ideas and designs.
The last addition to the Etsy shop is this ladybug birthday party theme.

Can you picture the birthday girl in a cute ladybug outfit and a table full of ladybug decorated treats? How adorable is this theme for little girls?

I don't know how it took me so long to realize that I needed a pink, really girly birthday party theme in my shop.
Fortunately I realized that major flaw, so as soon as I got some spare time, I used it to create a girl's birthday party theme.
And what else could I choose besides a princess theme? After all, it's most little girls' favourite! :)
