FENG SHUI MY LOUNGE

Yesterday I decided to spring clean my lounge. I wanted to put away the little bits and pieces and have a select few. I also wanted to incorporate some natural products I like. I have put some pinecones (left) and birdsnest (right).

On the left is my old camera collection.

I put away some of the frames to emphasize the frames that were there.




The urn in the background has a very shallow base which makes it hard to grow something in. So I brought an artificial topiary and it was quite realistic.


Today we were going op-shopping and came across this place where they were selling beautiful topiaries. We brought the beautiful one on the left of the picture for $65 which compared to garden centres, very realistic and better qualities. This is an Australian rosemary. It is not edible like ours but it comes out with tiny little white flowers.

PHILLIPA'S PICK FOR FEBRUARY - CURLS

Yesterday Peter and I went up to Whangaparaoa to visit Jolie, Cass and Tony. I was able to photograph her curls which are getting quite long. This morning we went to see her do ballet and was able to take more photos and got some good shots of Tony and Jolie which I was quite pleased as he doesn't normally like his photo taken.
