Easy Love - Valentine's Day.

Next Thursday is not only International Book Giving Day {I learnt that today} but it's also the day of lurve! Valentine's Day!

Whether you usually celebrate it or not, there's no better time than 2013, to show that special someone that you care.

And showing you care, has never been so easy!! Simply head to Interflora's site - view their amazing range....and several clicks later you will have an organised bunch of gorgeous Valentine's flowers being delivered next Thursday to your partner/lover/crush/friend....or hey...even yourself! :)

Today, as I was pulling up in the driveway after school pickup, I was greeted by a courier. He handed me the most amazing bunch of long stemmed roses inside a glass vase. Beautiful is an understatement. And although Chris is quite a fabulous flower giver-er {yes, I just said giverer}....these ones were in fact a gift from Interflora!

Lucky me. I know!

So I couldn't not share their great site with you. It's easy & safe to use. Their prices are competitive and their flowers are stunning. Ensure your boyfriend/partner/husband is reading this, or leave Interflora's site open on the computer. Nothing wrong with a few hints here and there :)))

LOVE!! Thank you Interflora.

Do you like to receive flowers as a gift? 

Flowers seem to always lift my mood.

Mother's Day Gift Ideas.

Sunday May 13th is Mother's Day! Yikes....that crept up quickly didn't it? And if it wasn't for the Hallmark display of 'Mother's Day' Cards in the local grocery store, the impending day wouldn't have even clicked yet!

It's a pretty special day really! If you're a Mum, it's a day all about YOU.....a day where YOU are celebrated & appreciated :) It's also a day when we celebrate & cherish our own Mothers, Grandmothers or motherly-figures in our life!

Stumped for ideas of what to give to your Mum this year? Or want to guide your kids/partner to a list of gift ideas {ones you'll actually love & use!} then here you are!! I've put together some ideas of good prezzies for Mum's....because even though we love them dearly, we can't all afford to shower them with Chanel or fly them abroad for a vacation :) 

• A magazine Subscription is always a winner in my eyes. Whether it be a fashion mag, a gossip mag or a cooking mag...there's something for everyone. Subscibe online here.
• I'm a little bit obsessed with GlassHouse Fragrances at the moment. We have 2 of their gorgeous 'triple scented' candles in our home...and they are the best smelling candles I have EVER come across. So powerful but so scrumptious. Worth every penny! Details where to buy here!

• A gift voucher for a day spa, facial, massage parlour, hairdresser....anywhere where a woman can go to be truly relaxed & pampered & replenished :)
• A good bottle of wine with some fresh flowers is always appreciated. Or splash out & get a bottle of her favourite bubbly or some Moet. Something that she wouldn't normally buy herself. 
• A good book. Google recent books that are popular but she hasn't read yet. Or I can recommend something uplifting like Miranda Kerr's Treasure Yourself book:

• If your budget agrees, you could go crazy & buy her a new iPad3 :) With an iTunes gift voucher so she can download & purchase some new tunes, app's, magazine & iBooks :)
• A personalised piece of jewellery is always very special to give to a Mother or Grandmother. I have bought several online for my Mum, friends, sister-in-laws, and they are always LOVED. Simply go to Etsy or Madeit and type in: Name Necklace, and you'll find a huge variety to choose from! This one is $25 from ImprintedDesigns on Etsy:

• Or hey, a print from my store is a nice idea :))))) I can recommend where to get some fab frames. They make a lovely custom gift!

Life is Beautiful Print: $16 {on sale at the moment} here!

All you need is Love: $11 {on sale at the moment} from HERE.

• And I know for a fact......one of the BEST gifts you could give a Mother {especially one of young children} is a day simply all about her! A day with a sleep-in, breakfast made for her, assist her with the chores, take her out to lunch, ensure the kids are smothering her with love & kisses....and remind her that she's wonderful....makes the world goes round....and that you LOVE her!

I could keep suggesting things, but I just wanted to plant a few seeds of ideas on what some Mothers may appreciate on their special day!!!!

Much Love,
