100th post - Fat Bird Farm giveaway

I had to look and make sure, but yep, today's my 100th post! I gotta say that I'm surprised that I've become so addicted to blogging. I love visiting my favourite bloggers, I love the interaction that I get through comments, I love findings things that I think are gorgeous and I love sharing them with you. Okay, I promise that's the last time I use the word 'love' in this post.

I am thankful for the blogging friends that I've made and also for those that silently drop by, and I just wanted to say 'thank you' for making me feel so welcome to the blogging community. And of course, as my mother always told me, it's polite to say thank you with a small gift, so dear bloggers today I have one of these lovely natural linen table runners made by Nicola Stairmaid of Fat Bird Farm (a small Melbourne venture of course - those of you who visit my blog regularly will know that I adore giving a shout for anything that's Melbourne decor related).


This lovely table runner features four sweet fairy wrens which have been lovingly screenprinted on natural linen and adorned with handstitched detail in black. Here's a close up of one of the little fairy wrens on the table runner...

So if you'd like this beautiful linen table runner to grace your table, all you need to do is leave a comment to this post before 9.00am Monday 18th May (Melbourne time). I'll randomly select a comment then & send this gift to you.

It was hard to pick just this one thing from Fat Bird Farm as they also create gorgeous scarves made from remnant fabrics and recycled knitware...


And there are also cushions, tea towels and beautiful cards featuring Fat Bird Farm's centrepiece, the fairy wren...

All images are from Fat Bird Farm.
