the Oasis shopping spree...

A friend hosted an Oasis Homewares party a few months ago... check out the website http://www.oasishomewares.com/

here's what I bought for the new house...

the lights and bar tables...

Loving Beacon's sale at the moment. Today we bought 10 lights! 3 matching pendants each for the living and dining rooms. 1 huge pendant for the master bedroom, and a smaller version of it for the library (formally known as front lounge room), and also smaller versions again of the same model lights as the master bedroom and library for the 2 toilets and the small hallway near the spare bedrooms.

Below is the 'Trinidad" pendant... 3 of these will hang each in a row in the living room, and in the dining room.
Below is the fairly extravagant "Madrid" 9 light pendant... this will hang in the master bedroom.

Below is the "Madrid" 5 light pendant... this will hang in the library.
Below is the "Madrid" 2 light pendant... this will hang in each of the toilets, and one in the small hallway.
Below are our new bar tables for our pool room! Very very very very happy with our find. We'll clean them, and stain them, perfect...! Can picture beer and nuts on them already.

the SUDD OFF plug...

So... a talented friend of mine based in Melbourne has set up this fantastic website www.suddoff.com

Check out the wide range of natural bath soaps and body products that are unique, original and handmade.

I know I'm going to buying heaps of goodies for my family for Christmas...

the Plush leather modular...

Our latest purchase, our new leather modular! We love it!

It's from Plush Sofas, design is called "Melbourne", colour is a dark chocolate "Norway Bean", and the configuration is slightly different to this image, as we're having a 7 seater, plus ottoman. VERY VERY happy! So very comfortable.

We changed our minds over the "York" modular at Havey Norman and it didn't come in full leather (it was fabric and vinyl) and we're really sick of fabric as we're forever cleaning cat and dog fur.

the land settlement...

...happened today! Our conveyancer rang - all went without a hitch! We'll be cracking open a bottle of Moet tonight to celebrate!! Woohoo!!!
