Bye Bye Baby.....

We have a cosy home. (Does "COSY" always have to mean "SMALL"?) My 2 big girls share a room and our toddler has been in our room since birth. At the beginning of the year we finished building an office out the back. This freed up a room inside to be a nursery. YIPPEE!!

I lovingly painted it and got most of the furniture in place but since this room was our old office, we couldn't move the modem until we had a certain cord or attachment. This room was in limbo for 6 months. Half nursery-half office. Then we got busy and distracted and changing rooms went down on the priority list. It was so frustrating!!!!

Finally and quite suddenly, I was desperate to move said child out and it happened all in one afternoon! DONE!! She's out and I can have the light on at night and maybe read or whatever I like. Yippee!! I feel like a real adult not one of the kids in a dormatory.

VROOOOOOOOOM.......

Monopoly Cars. I love these fabrics!!

Whenever I play this game - I forget to make others pay rent, I go to jail heaps and I never win! But I LOVE the tiny houses and the silver shoe, dog and wheelbarrow the best.

I'm gearing up for another market. This one is in Melbourne. I've cut out the main car and van bits but now I'm ready to applique in windows and doors. This can be a little tricky. But I have fun putting them together.

My Nana gave me one of her two Lamenex and Chrome dining tables and said I can have the chairs later on. Well, I just saw these original advertisements and had to show you.

Don't you just love the 50's?
