Fathers Day, lets go wild and spoil him rotten

Its that time again Fathers Day is to be celebrated, below are some of my favorite quotes and then some ideas to spice up his day


He didn't tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it. 
 ~Clarence Budington Kelland


My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard.  Mother would come out and say, "You're tearing up the grass."  "We're not raising grass," Dad would reply.  "We're raising boys." 
 ~Harmon Killebrew

Sometimes the poorest man leaves his children the richest inheritance. 


 ~Ruth E. Renkel


Think how hard they work, and how much we care lets not give sox and undies,its like giving us kitchen appliances!! lets shake things up. I secretly think the boys like being spoilt  just as much as us girls....
Lets go hard and make these boys in our lives feel special. We all know how hard they are to buy for so relax and take a look at our selection.We have gifts at the touch of a button delivered Auckland wide every day, all day on the hour every hour, wow what are we like

Our French Dinner Party

If you are planning a dinner party look no further, here is a collaboration of stylists, photographers & cake designers that have put together their creative skills...
The styling and concept come from Kate from www.magnoliarouge.com the wonderful photography was captured by www.sutherlandkovach.com and the amazing cake was supplied by www.juditmeron.co.nz
flowers by me myself and I memyselfandi.co.nz

Our french inspired dinner party was rustic and stunning. The food was relaxed and the style of the table was fresh and simple.We created this look with brown paper, soft fabric, creative menus and designs. When you lay it all up - the final look - amazing!



A nice way to set your place names.



French table designs, inspired with fresh herbs, fabric, old school chairs & brown paper.



French striped napkins, rustic menu & vintage cutlery.




It's all about the little details - wrap the bread in string, with fresh herbs.
Think outside the square when serving your guests

Hey, it's all about the groom! We have turned our attention to the groom for a change, so often he gets left out. Try mixing it up with different colour suits and shirts, be brave with a tie that is a bit out there.
