We spent a lovely 2 weeks in NZ visiting family. It was so relaxing and fun. We didn't do much tourist things, but with the amazing currency exchange I managed to do a bit (and a bit more!) of shopping.
Mid week we decided to have a girls day - act like ladies! And started the day with a spot of High Tea, which was simply delightful.
My girl had her very own tiered selection completely nut and egg free - so special. Though I forgot to mention that you start with the bottom tier and my sweet went straight for the chocolate pot on the top and made herself a wee bit sick!
I was taken with the presentation especially the added extra twigs of lavendar and selected blooms beside the treats making it feel even more special. I think I am going to add this into my tea party I have been dreaming of hosting.
This was followed by a fabulous afternoon trawling Christchurchs fabric stores, buying whatever caught my eye. Below is a sneak peek at some of the range I couldn't leave without purchasing!
The last store was amazing and I could have spent hours in there. But my credit card was done for the day and I couldn't really complain with the selection I had chosen.
My mind is going much quicker then my body can as I try and come out of holiday mode. I just made another Colour-on-the-go and after seeing some of the fabrics matched together I am enthused to make more.
"We didn't do much tourist things" Bad England.tut tut!
