Hello!

Its been a week since I last posted and I feel bad. Moreso, for not visiting you all, my blog friends, so in the next couple of days i'll try to catchup, see you soon at your place!

Oh it's a beau-tea!

I love looking at pictures of tea-cups, tea parties, lamps made out of tea-cups, you can tell where this is heading, right? Just thought I'll share a few of these pretty images to start off this week!

An excellent book!

Pretty Up

Well it so happens once you have little kids and their sticky little fingers get into all of your stuff (pretty stuff) like makeup and jewelry you start moving them to high shelves and forgotten boxes (the stuff not the kids) and after a little while you spend your days in a uniform (jeans+comfy shirt) and if its a good day add lipgloss to it, so to make Coco Chanel happy (and in accordance with this year's resolution) I have decided to pretty up my dresser in our new home (hoping it would equate to prettying up myself) and display all my long forgotten stuff, just have to figure out a way to keep it all camouflaged from my lil girl. Let me know if you have any tips!

It's Giveaway Time!

I was contacted by Maree at Buyster Lighting before Christmas asking If I would be interested to either review a product from their online lighting store or host a giveaway for Chek readers. Although I was tempted to order a product for myself and review it I thought it was about time I hosted my first giveaway.

Buyster lighting have a great variety of products on their website and the giveaway is a $60 gift voucher. All you have to do is leave a comment here, thats it. I'll draw the winner with the assistance of my team (miss 3 and mr 11) over the weekend.

Unfortunately this giveaway is only for Australian readers as Buyster only delivers within Australia, so I am really sorry to all my overseas readers. But I will be hosting another giveaway for you all too so please don't hate me.

Best of luck!
