Bridal Bouquet Jewellery and Embellishment

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Bridal bouquet embellishment has become a very hot trend recently in which brides introduce their own inspirations and personal touches into their bridal bouquets. I am just in love with this trend and think it makes a lovely bouquet completely ravishing.
The options for embellishing your bouquet can run from the sentimental such as adding your favourite grandmother’s [...]

A Slumdog Millionaire Bollywood Party!

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

I couldn’t be more delighted with the outcome of the Oscars today.  Heath Ledger won, Hugh Jackman was a hit, and Slumdog Millionaire was a deserving Best Picture recipient.  What a wonderful, heartwarming movie it was.  Exactly the sort of tear-at-your-heartstrings, root-for-the-underdog movie that should win this award.  I now want to host a Slumdog [...]

Today has been filled with emotion for me.  It is our national day of mourning for those killed in the Victorian bushfires.  I wept along with countless others this morning as I thought of the devastation, destruction and unfathomable sadness of those directly affected by the bushfires in Australia.
I am guilty of not mentioning the [...]

Friday, February 20th, 2009

Who doesn’t love chocolate?  It’s the obvious choice for a favor for your wedding, bridal shower, baby shower, corporate event or kids party… well, any celebration really!  But, the options for personalising a chocolate bar favor in Australia have been really boring, old-fashioned and quite awful actually.  Until now!
The personalised chocolate bar favor has had [...]
