Scenic Sunday - Cassis

I missed out on Scenic Sunday last week, so I made sure I would remember this week to post something up!!

Here are my photos - they are a photo of the very pretty town of Cassis in France. Gorgeous and cute, with beautiful water views especially the crystal clear water of the massive white cliffs known as the Calanques, which you can see in the picture below. Only silly me forgot my swimmers that day and could only do with admiring it from a boat rather than jumping right in for a swim!

Tush Tush

I recently spoiled myself to an early birthday present!! I'm turning the big 3-0 in just one weeks time and seeing as I am house hunting I thought it would be the perfect excuse to check back on the artwork I had 'hearted' to find myself an early birthday pressie!!

I had been long admiring the wonderful works of Tush Tush and had 'hearted' this beautiful 'dancer' photo above. So when I went back through my fav's I was very disappointed to see that it had sold, but I took this opportunity to have another little looksies around Tush Tush's shop.

I love all her artwork and found myself coveting this beautiful piece entitled 'Rimma' which you can see just below. I 'hearted' it and a few days later purchased it! I can't wait to receive it and even more can't wait to find a house to move into so that I can finally get all my artwork framed and hung up on my walls for all to admire!

Now i'm on the search for a bigger house, with lots more wall space so I have even more of an excuse to revisit Tush Tush's shop :)

Victorian Bushfire Appeal

You will have heard on the news about the bushfires in Victoria, Australia. The facts are devastating - many lives lost, many missing and many left homeless.

It is encouraging to see that the Etsy community has banded together with many sellers donating a percentage of their sales to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal and many others supporting the cause by purchasing such items.

To help out visit the OzBushfireAppeal.etsy.com shop and make a purchase or donate an item to be sold for the cause. You will also find many shops are dedicating items direct in their shops to the Red Cross and you can find these items by doing a search on the tag 'bushfire'

As for me, to help out i've decided to donate 50% of my sales from my PPDesigns shop from today till the end of February, plus have donated some items direct to the OzBushfireAppeal shop. On top of that I couldn't help but buy this cutie from the OzBushFireAppeal shop.

Please take some time to visit these shops and to lend a hand if possible! Thanks for your support!
