I was very spoiled by Mr Crafty, my family and my in-laws and am now the very, very proud owner of a Kitchenaid Artisan stand mixer in Majestic Yellow. I feel slightly traitorous towards my vintage Kenwood, which was given to me by the mother of my oldest friend, and has beaten the mix for many a cake including our wedding cake but look how pretty....(sorry Kenwood)...
I was also treated to the most amazing vintage sewing box by my friend Helen and now finally have somewhere to neatly stash my overflowing sewing supplies.
We found it at the Winter's Moon open studio day. Their website is full of very beautiful things and well worth checking out.
Then last Sunday I attended Blognic in Regents Park:
What a lovely day! It was great to meet other like-minded bloggers although I didn't by any means to speak to everyone there sadly. Thanks so much to Lynne and Ellie for organising.

But open it I did and I am so pleased with how it completes the pictures in the corridor:
