Weekly what:nots...

Happy Tuesday eve! Things have been busy around here, and somewhat fraught, but as they say tomorrow is another day. Thank you for stopping by, and especially for your sweet comments - they really do make my day! I hope you're having a good week and that everything is well in your neck of the woods. The not so great stuff aside, we are gearing up for Christmas (only 11 sleeps to go), and have planned a wee jaunt to the east coast (we leave Christmas night!). Do you have holiday plans? Are you travelling, expecting visitors, or staying home...? I hope the remainder of the week is kind to you...here's a rather tardy what:nots.

Lovely light in this quiet image.

What:nots...

Well the week just flew by. R returned from New Zealand, the boys went to OMSI camp, then arrived home four days later in a cloud of sand, and here we are at the weekend. So before any more time whooshes by here's what:nots for the week. I hope the week and weekend have been kind to you.

Such a lovely photo of two lovely women.

Lush Bella's souvenirs from a morning walk.

Lanvin's private library, a true treasure trove, captured by The Selby.

My owl obsession continues, helped along by this wee fellow.

Kim Smith's collage pretty much sums things up.

Due for release next month, Deborah Mitford's memoir Wait for Me!

A sweet little print by Raymond Ching.

And another great product from Poketo - Desk-It, a post-it note for your desk. Perfect for habitual list makers like me.

Nice colours...

I'm quite taken by this. So simple, and so lovely. If you hop over here you can find out more about Chris Bettig who designed it, and see close-ups of the pattern.

Weekly what:nots...

Thank you for all your lovely comments and emails! I'm so humbled that you all take the time to visit Elsa May...Do you have plans for the weekend? I'm finally relaxing after playing 'catch-up' all week. The boys have today and Monday off school (hooray lots of sleep-ins), we've planned lots of fun - ice skating, OMSI, hiking in the arboretum, seeing friends, and potential hamster shopping! So without further ado here's this week's what:nots.
