Secondhand Maternity Style - 21 Weeks


 Dress: Thifted (Vintage) Shoes: Rivers
Brooch: Sconnie and Jam  Caravan: 1974 Franklin 

Mother's Day was the perfect occasion to potter up through the Sunshine Coast hinterland to visit Ben's parents for lovely lunch and catch up with our darling caravan Asher.  And of course while we were there, I couldn't resist taking a few photos to capture this special Mother's Day occasion with my most favourite of vintage accessories.  I'm so delighted that many of my vintage dresses are still fitting my ever growing bump and it was such a treat to match my favourite Sconnie and Jam brooch with my dress and the caravan.   We are so looking forward to being a little closer to Ben's parents after we move and can't wait to spend a few lovely weekends working on Asher's long overdue makeover (that is Ben will be working and I'll be giving orders and choosing pretty colours).  
How delightful, the beauty of the weekend is upon us again. And what a fun filled weekend I have in store.  Tomorrow the gorgeous Steph and I are off on a fabulous Saturday adventure and I just can't wait! Sunday brings my lovely sister in law's baby shower (we are due only eight weeks apart) and no doubt much discussion about all kinds of bubba goodness.  What do you have planned this weekend?

Finding Inspiration..

Inspiration found me today in the form a of wondrous little maple tree down the street.  I had long given up on catching a glimpse of this perfect Autumn splendour which I so dearly missed.  And there it was all this time, just a few houses away, bursting with enchanting golden leaves, with so many stories to tell. 

The little maple whispered to my soul to make a cup of tea and nestle down with my journal... To revel in this fleeting moment just a little longer.  As the old grey clouds engulfed the sky, its calling could no longer be ignored. 

Leaves were gathered, patterns admired, pages torn, tea sipped and quiet moments embraced.

An Autumn recipe here, an inspiring quote there, finished with a map of my birthplace, a little tape and a gentle leaf pressed within the much loved pages.  

 Thank you for the inspiration little maple tree, it was wonderful to make your acquaintance.  Your leaves will be greatly treasured as a reminder of the changing seasons, fleeting moments and precious afternoons. 

Where has inspiration found you of late?
Much Love
