Glossy magazines are my LIFE

It is no surprise to anyone that I luuuurve shelter magazines.
It's my dirty secret.
I have thousands of magazines on industrial shelving in my work area.
I love them.

This month, I have been feeling a bit sad & sorry for myself. So when Country Style offered to send me a copy to drag me out of the doldrums I jumped at the chance. A bit of joy, a bit of inspiration, a bit of escapism!! As usual, it didn't disappoint...






I couldn't find any photos on the web site, (these photos are of other amazing houses) but the bestest story was about Sally Wise; amazing baker, cookbook writer, mother of 6, gardener extraordinaire. She lives above the wonderfully named Pirates Bay in Tasmania, has a very huggable looking beagle & has a new book named Leftover Makeovers, which I would love to read because who doesn't need tips on delicious economical cooking for large family's?

The article immediately made me want to jump into the pages & explore her amazing garden. She has a roadside stall for 'a bit of fun', & leaves a sign on the gate saying 'baking in the house, please come down'. Here is her website, or grab a Country Style of your very own.

What do you do for inspiration?
