So the story goes…
Mama shipped over too much stuff from the UK. Mama also bought too much stuff in SA before said stuff arrived from the UK..
The result after putting 5 boxes in the shed..
An over cluttered but organised and color coded space!
On the brighter sided I have a good excuse in my daughter who just loves it 🙂
My baby bookshelf..
And that’s just how we roll..

Our kitchen window..
These flower pots were all found in UK charity shops, rabbit was a very expensive UK purchace, owl was a recent addition from a South African charity shop and the flowers from a UK charity shop. Mama Bird bounces and she is also from Twickenham. Her basket and hat have been taken from a porcelain doll that was given to my daughter. The green dish is for my curtain tie backs at night in case you were wondering.
I don’t wanna start drilling walls so the hand towel holder has ended up on the window, with Allegra’s fairy that she got from my brother from another mother’s cuzza on my birthday, bottles from Twickenham and the Lavender that my Mom put on out house warming cake ❤
Made by Mummy on sabbatical in Liphook the United Kingdom in 2011..

Things I’ve done, places I’ve been and how I’ve been inspired.
My Hydrangea has done so well 🙂
Perfect for this freezing spring day..
At Patisserie Valerie!
Made the train but not the top up stopped at a more frequent station to top up grab some entertainment and imagine the a flower shop. No pink plants thank goodness but this matches a pot I have perfectly!
I buy glossy mags every week but never find the time to read them. Astounded that every single designer is using pink!
Next station had those pink flowers (:
Everything I want everytime.. My Baylis and Harding Pink Cashmere for my holiday next week ♥
Treated myself to Spring Slippers 🙂
The old matching upto the new!
Chilling outside in the winter granny I mean outdoor slippers!
So that was my day in mobile uploads, did you do anything exciting?
Naughty boy!
Going in search of blossoms to match my ipod, skirt and scarves. Felt like being bright on a now gloomy day. What was I thinking when I bought this skirt?
Scarf 1 to match my skirt
Scarf 2 to tie the hottest pink and beige into a pretty bow, mix that with designer boots and bag and I think I might have turned the cheesiest skirt into the perfect outfit for this miserable afternoon. Now where are my blossoms?
Now these just won’t do!
There they are ♥
Oh what a classic.. Beer shortages soon please panic buy!
Simple Pleasures.. Quaranta, a new lighter that not only looks like roses but smells like them too, a latte with my name on it and a beautiful card for my Mommy Darling!

I had so many roses and so much oasis after the Ronchese Lifestyle photoshoot I decided to do a mini garden. I battled to find the perfect spot but finally decided next to the bench.
I then decided to do a rose heart and went and picked flowers from the oasis garden.
Had an awesome morning in the sunshine 🙂
Hope you enjoy the pics.

This day is perfect, this day is one of the most important in my entire life, I physically branded myself a few years back by means of permanent ink. Today I literally brand myself. Quite nervous actually, “who do you think you are?” keeps running through my mind. I thank God for the special people who give me my inspiration. Have a lovely day friends
My mother would kill me if she knew I spent almost £60 on flowers 🙂
“Isn’t she lovely, isn’t she beautiful..” my Granny used to sing that to me right after I called her to sing “I just called to say I love you..” #sweetestmemories

Here’s an excerpt:
A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 2,000 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 33 trips to carry that many people.

So after a much time spent on my Pixie Hats I decided to give bunting a go, this is how it went..
I chose 2 shades of purple, pink and white. Started simply with 40 stitches and decreased down to 2. Dolly mix kept me company and off I went..
My first bunter…
Right that was simple enough now to get creative and alternate the pattern. I have never knitted wit so many strands at the same time.
This is my second bunter..
It got so exciting after that I couldn’t tangle the camera into the mix so I’ll just show you the finished bunting~
Now I’ve decided to give the Cardi another try~

So I’d knitted my first Cardi and so wasn’t pleased that I’ve yet to finishing sewing it up. I’m ready to give it another go..
It helps that white has been replaced with the pinky purple colour tieing it all together nicely I thought. Here is how I added the sleeves.
Sitting back admiring what I just created.
Now to add the collar.
Feeling very proud and will publish my new pattern soon but first I need to design my new cardi a matching hat and booties 🙂
Need to find matching buttons but thinking the roses work well. Your thoughts?
I’m liking~
My first attempt~

So I’m feeling quite proud of myself. Introducing the new member of the Tiny Treasure family..
The Pixie Hat
So my first Pixie hat was knitted for my “niece” Amelie. “Not really but could have been”. Turns out I made it for a really small baby probably a new born. With 2 God children on the way knowing one was a girl and having made the middle hot pink set for her, hoped my other God child would be healthy as well as a girl~
Turns out she is a little girl and she will be called Lyndsay-Sue, so this is for you Princess.
I made a larger set in Pink for Amelie.
I then received an Etsy order for Pink, Purple and White.
Still feeling very proud of my trio~
I have since made a set in blue and love the all so much had to hang them till they all went to their families 😉
I’ve so thoroughly enjoyed that I thought I’d try some bunting. My flat mate had heard it suggested and passed it onto me.
Check out my bunting blog for more info.

I recently googled knitted flower patterns and found a language I did not understand so I designed my own and would like to share it with you. Got lots of other patterns to share so feedback is appreciated before I possibly waste my time.
I used double knitting on 3.25m needles. Alter size of flower with thicker/thinner needles/wool.
I knit all 5 petals at the same time from separate mini balls of wool. Each petal needs between 2 to 2.5m of wool.
CO – Cast on

P – Pearl
KFB – Knit forward and back into stitch to increase 1 stitch
K2T – Knit 2 together
P2T – Pearl 2 together

So the more I bake the more I tweak. A cupcake should be a special treat, due to it’s specialness it should be treated often. You don’t always want 12 cupcakes and many recipes are difficult to half or quarter. For this reason I have mastered a recipe that makes cupcakes in multiples of 4. My flat mate is lactose intolerant so I have tried and tested this recipe using soya milk and butter on many occasions. I only eat cupcakes with butter icing and can sadly say that somehow non-diary soya icing tastes better.
Candy’s Vanilla or Chocolate Cupcakes (makes 4-6 cupcakes)
50 grams Self-raising Flour
50 grams Butter
50 grams Castor Sugar
1 Egg
1/2 tablespoon Milk
1/2 tablespoon Vanilla essence or cocoa
Butter Icing
Unfortunately it’s time to go running I’ll update this bit at a later stage. I have not taken icing measurements do it to taste. Will measure next time I bake. In the meantime I’ll share some pics with you. I had my friends decorating their own cupcakes the other day, looked like they were having so much fun!

Love, love, love my new hobby. Got some material, needles, cotton and accessories. Cut open one of my pillows for stuffing and got creative.
I now need to locate stuffing and restuff the pillow~
I’m thinking my little love letters would make great fridge magnets so I tried it out.
Thoroughly enjoyed making and stuffing the hearts and they have all been given away. I have been comissioned to do a personalised one with a persons name one it. Feeling quite pleased that she thought my efforts were worth £5.

Mag Mag (Magnificent Magnolia)
You are the master of your own destiny~
♥ every second!
Just had to shared my new desktop background Mag Mag. Just thought of that trust me it was not my intention and certainly not how I intended starting this blog, the Magnolia is simply Magnificent!
For the love of pink I must tell you I opened up the Metro today which is a free newspaper available on UK public transport. So most papers here have rather distastfully dressed ladies on page 3. The Metro however does not and today they featured a single Mom of 2 whose entire house is tastefully decorated in pink. She mentioned that most people thought she was over the top but I fell in love. I didn’t get a photo but I’ll hunt it down for you.
Back to my special trees. There are 3 major trees in my tiny little garden and I loved them through the snowy winter and excitedly awaited the arrival of spring..
# 1
When the first tree budded in pink I was ever so thrilled. The thought that any of the other trees would be pink never entered my mind.
Instead I planted 3 different shades of pink primroses. So it was a bit too cold and they had flowered way too early and only hot pink remains.
This is the first blooming blossom, the cold and rain dissolved them all very quickly. They did wait for Magnolia to blossom and what a sight to see. I’m searching for a shot of the blooming blossom and the Magnolia, I’m amazed that I can’t find one.
Instead I will share a photo taken shortly after Mag Mag bloomed. I was so excited to find three trees that were different shades of pink that would fit into one photo. And a lovely photo at that.
# 2
My flat mate and I knew she was a Magnolia but had no idea what colour she would be. Much to my excitement she budded in pink too. This is when I confirmed to myself that I am exactly where I am meant to be.
These beautiful pink buds have brought me endless amounts of joy. It is such a treat heading out on a spring morning for a coffee and a cigarette. I’ll get onto a blog of my garden birds, between them and the pink blooming trees my garden is a most wonderful place to be. 
On closer inspection she gets even prettier, nature is a most wonderful thing.
It saddens me greatly that I may not get a shot of 2 pink trees in my garden. I’m pretty sure I missed 1 and 2 (will thoroughly search C: tomorrow) and 2 might possibly not wait for 3.
Lots of pretty pink petals scattered all over the ground 😦
But wait there is still hope, this blog talks about three trees. May I introduce
# 3
I got home this afternoon to the most pleasant surprise. The tiny hot pink buds I was raving about on Facebook have started blossoming. These are the only few, I’m really hoping after a glorious sunny day I’ll wake up tomorrow to loads of little pink flowers. I have now assured myself that there is no other place that I should be. I am the master of my destiny!

So here we go my first blog, I’ve kept WordPress’ original name for it…
I’m not the best writer, but it’s something I’ve always wanted to do and recently gave it a try. Now its time to attempt blogging.
Let me introduce myself. I am half Italian, half Portuguese, born and raised in South Africa. Proudly South African. I have been a gypsy for little over 10 years now. I ♥ to travel, I ♥ discovering new faces and places and I’ve managed to pack up my entire life into international travel sized luggage on many occasion.
I’ve lived in South Africa, United Arab Emirates, Scotland and England. I’ll hopefully be moving to Spain in the very near future which bring me to my ♥ of warm weather, beautiful beaches, diving and boating. I ♥ Africa, I’ve visited Botswana, landed in Kenya and enjoyed many a trip to Egypt. The middle eastern hospitality is unmatched but closely followed by Thai. Enjoyed many years in Dubai, spent time in Bahrain and Qatar. Been fortunate enough to visit Thailand 3 years in a row and wish I could go every year. I’ve attended a conference in Toronto and visited Disneyland when I was young. I’ve been to Dracula’s Castle in Romania and stayed in the Ritz Carlton Istanbul. Been back to my roots in Milano and gondaleured through Venice. I’ve bought tulips in Amsterdam, visited one of Europe’s largest Castles in Austria, landed in Athens and attended more than one Oktoberfest in Munich.
I have a bad obsession with all things pink, I ♥ taking photos and need a new camera. Wild about water birds and go duck hunting (camera loaded) as often as possible. I’ve recently been fortunate enough to spot some rare critters but more about that later.
I have 2 brothers who have each given me an angelic nephew and 2 half brothers. The elder has given me three beautiful nieces and two nephews, the younger is still a teenager.
I’m currently living in a quite English town called Liphook and I ♥ it, spring has sprung, the blossoms are blooming and I know long summer days are not far away.
2011 My Garden, Liphook, United Kingdom
It was a beautiful winter, I had seen snow on few occasions however I longed for real snow that lasts days and turns everything to a standstill. Well I finally got what I wished for and I would not have chosen any other place to experience it. Liphook is lovely but once it’s covered in snow the entire town turns into something more beautiful than Narnia could imagine.
2010 Radford Park, Liphook, United Kingdom
I’m a passionate about coffee which can only be drunk with a smoke. I’ve been promising my mother for more than 10 years that I either fall pregnant or turn 30 before she nags me to quit smoking again. So here I am 29 and 5 months to the day. Got another 7 months before I’ll really be able to appreciate the taste of my coffee.
I think that’s it for my first blog~
