Behind the scenes

Wow, its been a while.
I cannot even explain where the time has gone.
Minutes turn to hours,
hours turn to days, 
days to months,
and now 3 months sine my last entry I try to recall what has kept me away.


Simply Sienna has already taken me on a journey 
6 months ago even I could not have imagined
(And imagine I can!).
The various stylings have satisfied me on so many levels.
The desire to imagine, 
the want to create,
to craft,
fulfil another's dream,
and my LOVE to shop!
And shop I can.


Today under the suns warm rays 
I enjoyed a walk in a place where you do not know what you may find.
The anticipation,
the hunt for that perfect...
exactly - it will be perfect but...
but...what exactly it will be remains unknown until its found.
A rare behind the scenes look into this imagination of mine,
and sneak peaks of the treasures found.

Of things Past

Sunday brunch,
a ritual treasured in days of the past.
A day of rest,
family,
fun.
In our world of 24-7,
Sunday is often the new Monday.
Friday, Saturday and so on.

Between the desire to work,
well - the blackberry keeps beeping.
Children needing,
take them here, take them there.
And the never ending list of to do's.

Sunday brunch,
seems often a distant memory,
of things past.

This Easter Sunday,
a day of rest to celebrate,
the world did not stop.
But we did.
A day of rest,
family, prayer and 
fun.
I re-learnt what I always knew;
tomorrow the sun will rise again
and what was not completed today will be waiting.
Brunch will no longer be a distant memory,
let the weekly celebration of life begin!

Purple Passion

Purple,
a symbol of royalty, nobility and spirituality.
Hot red and the coolness of blue combined.
In nature it has a special place.
Lavendar, orchid, lilac and violet 
flowers considered delicate and sacred.


It stands for luxury, wealth and sophistication.
The colour of passion, romance and sensitivity.


A favourite with creative people.
Whether wearing it, living in it,
creating with it,
purple is a colour for the adventurous heart with spiritual leanings
and a flair for drama. (Sounds familiar!)
This is a heart that knows the magic of purple.


Purple passion,
this is for you.
