August Empress

Firstly I’d love to thank everyone who left such lovely comments and feedback about the new shop, who helped spread the word, and especially to those who purchased their faves to use on their blogs. Be sure to let me know if you’re using any graphics from August Empress on your blog as I’ve love to see them in use.

I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend. Mine was a lot of fun with getting some more quality beach time before Winter gets closer, reading, eating, and finding some new things for our house.

Images 1, 2, 3 – Quite often it’s gorgeous and sunny when I leave home, but overcast when I arrive at the beach. Still enjoyed some relaxing/reading at Main Beach.

Images 4, 5, 6 – A short walk from this beach is one of kikki.K‘s lovely stores, I picked up a few Organisk pads, and the two cutest books with Inspiration & Love quotes. If you take a look at the patterned floor of the front window display, that will soon be mine to place under the glass top of my office desk, I think it’ll look great!

Images 7, 8, 9 – Headed down to Burleigh Heads to check out The Village Markets, and picked up the lovely green bottle including the peacock feathers, and an adorable little teacup candle and saucer. I did forget to take photos at the markets to share, next time!

Images 10, 11, 12 – Hanging out at the beach in Burleigh Heads with my awesome friend Eirin.

Images 13, 14, 15 – A visit to Ikea means getting my hands on some great typographic fabric to make some small curtains for the horizontal windows in my office. They will be hung on a curtain wire, since curtain rods would be too bulky. That will be my project for next weekend!
