I have the decorating bug.

I’m so excited! I’ve been working on my new site which includes gorgeous illustrations by Mandy Sutcliffe from Belle & Boo so have decided to pretty up my blog, with Mandy’s permission of course, and include one here. Mandy is an amazing artist – she’s doing five commissions of Ava for me and I’ll be really sad when she finishes – she’s just been so beautiful to work with. I chose photos that were really special to us and to see them illustrated by Mandy took my breath away.

Check out Mandy’s Etsy shop where she sells gorgeous originals and prints and other sweet things.

   Wow your blog is sooo pretty! The music is beautiful too.

   It must be the weekend for redecorating blogs *lol* … although mine is nowhere near as pretty as yours and blogger wasn’t being nice to me. I have the title song from the movie Curious George playing on mine.

   *Gasp* Susannah, if you only knew the painful lengths I went to including music here you would have refrained from telling me that! And..it’s a song you sent to me!! – Fidelity.

   Alissa, the link is right at the bottom of my blog..was not completely straightforward but I got there in the end! Might be easier with other blogs? I think Blogger has trouble with some HTML, that’s all…

   Thanks again for the nice comments.

   My sexy nerdy husband fixed it so I can hear the song! And just put my new header on Jen’s blog. I got Jen’s password to do it and it took all of Andrew’s willpower not to post naughty comments everywhere as precious pink pumps hehehehehe but we had fun just thinking of what he would say and telling her that he was going to hehehehe

    Hi Sheye,

    Looks great. You can’t go wrong with a name like Belle & Boo.
    It’s funny because we called Belle-Bellaboo all the time. Took my breath away for a second.

    I love the red and white.
