My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

ms*louisa's wedding


I know,I know
- I should not be here
but I am having a lovely cup of tea & thought I would take a minute.
Ms*louisa and two of the bridesmaids will be sleeping here tonight
- ms*Sophie and ms*Corinne -
so I am in the middle of setting up the beds to make them feel pampered and special
- a lovely cake of soap placed on their bed with a fluffy towel
* a chocolate on their pillow & lovely flowers in little jars
and of course my signature rose scented tea lights.
We are having chinese takeaway for dinner - nice and easy
after that ms*louisa will be pampered like the princess that she is
- a lovely deep bath with my princess blend bath salts
lights out
and lots of the tea lights twinkling in the bathroom
& warm towel for when she gets out.
tomorrow we get up about 7am
* breakfast is homemade fruit salad & yoghurt then off to the hairdressers
* makeup lady will be here at 11am as will the flowers
* photographer about 11.30 am
my daughter in law is doing a lunch basket for us all - cucumber sandwiches & mini quiche
* the only drinks we will have during the day is water or maybe a cup of tea.
the quilt I am pleased to say is fi
nished
- it is just beautiful and I can't wait to give it to her
* I am doing that at the reception.
and of course the heavens opened up today and it has been pouring
but like George Michael says

Yes I've gotta have faith...

Mmm, I gotta have faith

'Cause I gotta have faith, faith, faith,

Mm 'cause I gotta have faith-a-faith-a-faith

Nuts, I thought I just posted but must've imagined it! I'm dreaming of the pretty time your girls will have with all your pampering. And I'm doing the mental math to figure out which day it is there, and what's going on. I'm confused!

Take care, but sounds like you already are!

I hope the sun comes out and the grass, leaves, and flowers turn the most lush and beautiful colors that only happen after a good rain. Our best wishes

Dear Robyn, thanks to your delightful and touching posts, I'm sure many of us are feeling like extended family just now. sort of...'hearts on tiptoe' just a little, waiting to hear more about these most special days. I know I feel that way. Joybells are ringing around the world in your friends hearts, as good wishs come your way over the internet. Blessings!
