Finally time to Relax.

Last week was par­tic­u­larly busy with prepa­ra­tions for our local com­mu­nity venture, but the past few days can only be described as crazy.  Not only did we have the com­mu­nity ven­ture, I started a new project to boot.  Planned for only 4 hours each day but I ended up spend­ing much more - my old habit of not being able to say no.  And that wasn’t all. My Alma mater called with an urgent issue and nat­u­rally I agreed to help.  Yep!

My eldest agreed to do a gazil­lion cup­cakes for the com­mu­nity ven­ture and it seemed there was never a moment where the kitchen coun­ters were not filled up with dough of some sorts, or tons of icing.  The youngest agreed to help with the lit­tle ones and promptly filled up the din­ing room with sup­plies for crafts and mosaic activ­i­ties.  A week filled with bak­ing and cart­ing cup­cakes & sup­plies to the ven­ture.  All is well that ends well, and I’m thrilled that the com­mu­nity ven­ture was a resound­ing success.

Relax

Now for some Me time…

Excit­ing news and some Retail ther­apy for you today!

I’ve just received the new cat­a­logue for Realm Liv­ing from Belinda McCall, one of the founders of Nest Designs  and  Realm Liv­ing.  To cel­e­brate the launch of the new cat­a­logue, they’re offer­ing 10% off the entire range when you spend R5 000 or more.

The new range is contemporary, fresh and exciting, yet timeless.

At Nest (designed for kids) and Realm, the vision is to bring time­less, com­fort­able fur­ni­ture and fur­nish­ings to every­one who lives, works and relaxes at home.  Their focus is firmly on exclu­siv­ity, inno­va­tion, func­tion­al­ity and qual­ity.  Woods and other mate­ri­als are top-grade, var­nishes are water-based and oils are entirely nat­ural. The fur­ni­ture is man­u­fac­tured mainly in Europe and usu­ally comes flat-packed with sim­ple assem­bly instruc­tions, so that cus­tomers aren’t charged for things they could eas­ily do themselves.

Here’s some of my favourites.  You can also request a cat­a­logue or view the entire col­lec­tion online.
