Over the weekend I met a reader from New York at a party for my soon-to-be cousin-in-law. She said that one of the things she loves about me is that I always let my readers know when I am going away from the blog or not going to post for a few days. Well, I must apologise to her and to you as I seem to have been missing in action since last Wednesday with no such notice of absence. I'm unsure where all of those days have gone to...
So, what have I been up to you might ask? Well, I won't delve into every single detail however, here's a snapshot of a beautiful bedroom I just finished for a lovely teenage girl. It was an absolute delight working with her and her mum. I think she is the most polite, effervescent and happy teenager I have ever met.
The day we installed the furniture into her room, I took her some dahlias from my garden which we arranged on her antique bedside table I found for her. On the other side of the lovely upholstered antique French bed we placed a Stuart Membery chest of drawers. I love the mix of furniture we chose for her room and I must admit I found it very hard parting with the antique bed. However, I know she will cherish it and that makes me very happy!!
I wish I got some better photos...I seem to be always saying that but I'm always in such a hurry.
This week is a very big and exciting week for my family as this Saturday my cousin is getting married to his beautiful fiance Phoebe at the most divine property in northern NSW. We have family flying in from Canada, Sweden, New York, Holland and interstate. Everyone is coming together which is just so exciting. I have been given the lovely job of arranging the flowers for the tables. I am using the beautiful dahlias and zinnias from our garden which is very exciting. I can't believe how many flowers we have. It's quite amazing and so thrilling to be able to use my own flowers for my cousin's wedding.
Oh and tomorrow night is Chanel. As an update to my post from the other week, Chanel called today to ask for Brad's last name. Maybe they read my post!!xx

Such a beautiful room Anna, feminine and mature. Gorgeous!
What a beautiful bedroom for a very lucky girl! I'm thinking I also need to plant some Dahlias...the colors are beautiful!
Your garden must be a mass of colour right now - those dahlias we could see are stunning.
It must be hard sourcing all these beautiful things and then having to part with them. But looks like you have fun along the way which is the main thing :)
Anna, this room is stunning!! Love your work as always x
Yaaaaaayyyyy! So excited Anna. And that bedroom is dead set gorgeous. I want to hop on that bed and read a book ASAP! Your garden looks stunning. Thank you for taking on the wedding flowers - bring on Saturday! Can't wait to hear EVERYTHING about Chanel. xx
Anna, I love this room - beautiful work as always.
Beautiful room, even an ordinary photo of a teenagers room looking that good is a miracle, hope she keeps it that nice.
Beautiful, and she will have the furniture forever! The artwork is pretty spectacular as well!
