And More...

Melanie, Kelly & I before the guests arrived above.



A better shot of the tutu desk.



Me speaking to our guests and introducing Stuart Membery...I look like I'm about to fly off the hot pink stool I was standing on!!



The store front before our 170 guests arrived on Wednesday night.




Melanie with some of our guests






Are you getting bored yet of my photos??!! Sorry! Here are a few shots of our re-opening party. I have lots more but I didn't want to post photos of my clients just in case they were not happy to be seen on the blog. Anyway, I am now taking a few days off. It's been a very hectic couple of months and I feel like I need to spend a few days with my boys.

    What I love most about you is that you want to spend time with your boys and that your shop will go on and be absolutely beautiful. You are a Mum, and designs, and shops, and lives will go on, but our kids are only little once. I wish you all the best with your new and improved shop and your boys too!

    not at all bored, Anna. Your shop is extraordinary, I especially drool over those cushion covers and wonder where in the little backyard of the Old continent I live in I could find similar fabrics.
    And did somebody allready tell you you look fabulous, a new mother and all!

    Great to see the photos and see a girly girl with lots of boys!! I had 5 brothers and was tortured for my female tendencies, like cleanliness. If I could go back in time, I'd stand up to them with a tutu desk, but love the last image which says upscale surfer to me!! Thanks,

    Anna - I've been on vacation for two weeks and just catching up on my blog reading. The shop looks amazing - you must be so proud. And tired. Though you don't look it. In fact, it's a little unfair to look that gorgeous right after having a baby. Congratulations on everything.
