our creative space . . . 'while the girls were away on camp, i got busy decorating'

Greetings all,
My sweet twin girls were off on camp this week - bless their hearts, it rained every day, lucky they were sleeping in cabins!! 
 They packed fashion for all weather conditions . . .
 & yes, this is a mix of SAS sleeping bag with a vintage port + straw fedora??!!
 As is tradition in our household . . . while you are away on camp, i get busy doing bedroom makeovers . . .
 our middle girl has wanted her bed on an angle for ages (she has an angled 5th wall) & i thought, why not??  OMG, it's completely changed her room around, it's more spacious & looks fabulous.  Good call.  She was absolutely thrilled & loved the welcome home gifts on her bed.
 I need to make curtains & tidy up the book case!!  At night with the lanterns on, it's so pretty, a little like the glamping episode last week.
 Day 3 - i had a really awful headache & just couldn't finish 2 rooms in one 'camp' so i just cleaned up & hung the tissue fans & balls in the 2nd room . . .
 & put all her decorating goodies & gifts on her bed, so we can do it together on the weekend.  Yes, they each got a bird & owl teapot, just because, they look so cute on their shelves.  Anyway, she's quite particular this 3rd girl of mine, she left me standing by the bus with the firm statement of "do not go into my room while i'm away, Mother".
 They each came home to a little accessory from Alannah Hill too, squeals of delight.
So, it's still wet outdoors but i'm doing the camp washing anyway, including their wet-dog-smelling sneakers.  Oh mustn't forget, i'm doing a little Market today at Brindabella Business Park, yay.  Go visit more Creative Spaces, love Posie

our creative space . . . 'glamping'

Greetings all,
It's just not a real school holidays without a sleepover - my children swap rooms, have friends over & build cubby houses all the time, but i thought we'd upscale & go a little more ladylike, dainty & mummy take over styled. . .
 one bedroom was transformed into glamping . . .
 glamorous camping calls for lots of cushions . . .
 bunting flags & lanterns . . .
 special teddies were invited . . .
 any excuse to plug in the flamingo lights!!
 These gnome & toadstool lanterns are permanently strung here . . . 
 tiny pegs are holding the temporary ones in place . . .
 layers of tulle netting form a canopy . . .
 the girls absolutely loved it & slept like babies.
