Small Touches

With Chris and I moving overseas in a few short weeks I have been trying to make my way around to see all of my wonderful family before we go. I spent last week down in Sydney with my beautiful sister Ally and her family. Ally has this amazing way of adding these small touches to a home that make it feel oh so cosy and filled with wonderment. I couldn't help but be slightly snap happy and capture a few of the traces she had left throughout the place and the joys of being welcomed into their beautiful home.






Paper chains frame the windows



brooches, earrings and other delightful bling





I always love seeing these little figures floating about my sister's house.
Holland is where their love story began - Ally (an Australian) met her husband (a Kiwi) in Holland, when she stopped to ask him for directions. The rest was history..........



A garden you can potter about







deck the walls......




Nina & the wooden skittles





Always time for the Hello Game!



a delicious batch of jam drops




A stroll about the neighbourhood



With a fabulous combination of great people, cosy and intriguing surrounds and lots of love and laughter,
I found it very hard to say goodbye to this great household and these georgous people!
