It’s such a cliché to say the year flew past, but seriously . . . feels like I’ve been on fast forward since June. I’ll be spending Christmas with my family in Newcastle and will be back for the new year in Langebaan. We’re thinking of hosting a new years gathering with a few friends, which I’m extremely excited about. I want to create an exciting celebratory feel, without going over-the-top or having to much waste.
In the spirit of summer holidays and days spent at the beach, we bring you this beautiful trash the dress shoot done by the wonderful Monica Dart.
Christmas is around the corner and the festive spirit is almost tangible! This year, we’re planning an afternoon affair, lazily celebrating into the cooler summer evening. With the serious heat of the Winelands upon us, there’s no need for heavy, piping hot dishes.
A warm welcome to all the new visitors who found us via Top Billing. Remember to download the beautiful Paper Placemat, Tags, Flags and Salt and Pepper Labels that you saw on the show to recreate this look.
For our home tour we head off to the beautiful old house of the Le Cordeur family from Paarl. Heike Le Cordeur is a wonderfully creative florist and the home she shares with her husband Andrew, and their two children Luca and Indya, is just as lovely as the arrangements she dreams up.
Today we head to Louise Beukes from b.loved’s house. Louise is a fellow blogger and an incredible stylist living with her South African husband in London. Louise says that she gets excited by the idea of styling her Christmas table, every year!
