This will simplify the whole procedure, removing the need to sign in and out at various locations in order to blog. Apparently it is better for SEO also!<div><br /></div><div>So, in future, my blog posts will be viewable at <a href="http://www.littlelighthouse.com.au">www.littlelighthouse.com.au</a> under the Menu tab "Blog"!! Things are still being tweeked there, and I hope to incorporate the ability for you to comment on my posts. Please bear with me as I sort it all out in my spare time, LOL!</div><div><br /></div><div>Hope to see you there! xx</div><div><br /></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-33841916287148488242011-09-01T15:14:00.002+10:002011-09-01T15:19:00.751+10:00Spring has sprung!Here is a quaint little poem about Spring. I've always thought it went "Spring has sprung and the birds are twit" however I've been wrong all these years!! Happy 1st of September everyone, enjoy this glorious weather :<div>

<br />If you are a fan of ceiling pendant shades, but don't have the necessary electrical suspension to accommodate one - then you are now in luck! Good electrical stores now sell these DIY kits which convert batten light fittings into pendant light fittings! Voila! Now you can really get decorating!<div>

For all my searching I couldn't find any personalised lampshades, and thought perhaps it would be a lovely new style in children's lighting. Their popularity has proved this correct!<div><br /></div><div>Our new <a href="http://www.littlelighthouse.com.au/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=13&Itemid=1&vmcchk=1&Itemid=1">"Letter Lampshades"</a> have a beautiful embroidered letter on a white background, trimmed with your choice of lovely ribbon. Fully customisable to your child's needs, you can pick the letter colour, ribbon colour, and even change the background fabric if you desire. They make a wonderful, personal gift and are a striking addition in a child's room. Available also as a pendant shade for the ceiling - I have recently made a couple in this large size, and will post images shortly. "L" is for LOVE!</div><div><br /></div><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht3fnblO4lFq9r7Jip42f8D6Kq6V0_eRVOcN831M8JByMluswgZAuQOp-x0KWztus5QVkESY1l7ut2vIJF0kks7JQdAaZ0rVVYuGXnxuuCrsRv-Z0L3p0uc2ZgBMYdhiczHIaFl9YfyfA/s320/Letter+Lampshades+boys.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618610561525595090" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 217px; " /></span><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj36HHu82a8aFh-MPq4KSpKIqyUmN4e_5ATDqiApf7gPIKoEDf8oeV46KpATImQwK94kVPbZ8Kelu1Q_ogiKg6FUsxTl2IGmEo696P2IEhJDWmJ1bM7sztuOcT8gzRV57egNfHoKA4KZf8/s320/Spotty+letter+lampshade.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618610310382669714" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 239px; " /></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-13715880142054684702011-05-06T12:43:00.010+10:002011-05-06T13:35:34.258+10:00Gorgeous Navy!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg77AP18YJtxrGoxHyYD6r-xuLPMjnu9KqKH-uMuAd8y0vLZ7DO4fG37GbXn8hYDsOXZ_NAk3SqAZU24gZgUBAhVdpFUeFSOdUKqlGllllsmDH5nxSiU-GvZ0Xk2VeY6onwLxLdOzT8uz8/s1600/boysroom1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"></a><br /><div>Navy, a colour with timeless appeal.

Without realising it, we often pursue the interests which shape our later life. As a child I loved my Mum's magazines, Vogue Living, House & Garden, etc. On slow weekends with not much to do, I would take these magazines and scour them for pictures of rooms/objects which I loved, cut out these pictures and design my perfect home. Strange for a young girl? Perhaps, but I loved this past-time! So, I guess I have always had an interest in interior style/colour/design, and that coupled with the time spent in my grandparents soft furnishing business, has probably led me to the work I do today. It hasn't always been obvious to me, it has taken some years for me to find what fulfills me - but thinking back on my childhood memories, it was kind of screaming out at me! <div><br /></div><div>Just lately I have started doing the modern version of cutting pictures out of magazines, which is saving images I love from sites I stumble across! I love seeing how people put rooms together, the colours and textures used, the overall 'feel' of a room. Here are some lovely images which you might enjoy too.</div><div><br /></div><div>My final message : Listen to your inner voice, it knows you better than anyone.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238);

This new and very popular magazine, started by Bianca Shugg, began as a publication aimed at parents/families in the Brisbane area, showcasing local talent and events. Demand has grown nationally, and in June there will be a Peekaboo Magazine Sydney, and a Peekaboo Magazine Melbourne. </div><div><br /></div><div>The magazine is available as a hardcopy from local stores, childcare centres, shopping centres, etc (see their Distribution page for places near you), or it can be read online. It has some very interesting articles to suit all tastes and needs.<div><br /></div><div>Little Light House was so very fortunate to be asked to be a part of the March edition, which we eagerly accepted! The March mag has gone to print, and is available now! Check out our story, and the inspiring story of Stacey from Sunny Mummy (shown on the cover), plus a whole lot of other great reads!</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks Peekaboo, I see you too!!</div><div><br /></div></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-85336689260775380852011-03-04T15:21:00.012+10:002011-03-04T15:44:44.426+10:00Love it!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgod1ohxBnfhCIJpvNy8M0LCvS3dva1SHA9Iti_M7NtP8Ta2aiHDtMnh9wsVGCfs0y9luvIPwhgRxBtfLI0tAljc2qBqBs4k4O5XvPfpxLYJHIjcdBtGBWHPEb4YNWSwTcNR2gIVa2b6oU/s1600/Studio+Bambini.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 148px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgod1ohxBnfhCIJpvNy8M0LCvS3dva1SHA9Iti_M7NtP8Ta2aiHDtMnh9wsVGCfs0y9luvIPwhgRxBtfLI0tAljc2qBqBs4k4O5XvPfpxLYJHIjcdBtGBWHPEb4YNWSwTcNR2gIVa2b6oU/s200/Studio+Bambini.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580096403004660018" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQEbkaCtTajAgHI3m_2ygnTMlpo2GZ8eb9MbNJRA9SKC8ug73aD_I4PMv-j_E_q8OwjRTgt8O5y_aMF_fLxliR0G73kktCW701DsMiOtEVm_fnzZnPCuL2R3mMhc-ujaWsEevrUTHHrxQ/s1600/SB+Image+1.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 174px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQEbkaCtTajAgHI3m_2ygnTMlpo2GZ8eb9MbNJRA9SKC8ug73aD_I4PMv-j_E_q8OwjRTgt8O5y_aMF_fLxliR0G73kktCW701DsMiOtEVm_fnzZnPCuL2R3mMhc-ujaWsEevrUTHHrxQ/s200/SB+Image+1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580095753641472946" /></a><br /><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); "><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>You know, I really love what I do - REALLY love it! I've always loved fabrics, the smell, the texture, the colours, the stories they tell (I could go on and on, but I'll spare you!) - so working with fabrics suits me to a 'T'. Designing/making new lampshades satisfies the creative element in me, I get a real buzz out of coming up with new styles and designs (between you and me, I am creating a new range which I am really excited about!!). And being able to do all this whilst at home raising my delightful little children makes it all the more sweeter. <div><br /></div><div>Anyway, this isn't meant to be a self-indulgent rant, the point is that just lately what I do has been appreciated in a more public forum (magazine exposure) and it tickles me pink that some other's love what I do too! Thanks for the support, thanks for the lovely feedback, I'll keep plugging away at what I'm doing, the hard work is worth it! xx<div><br /></div><div><br /><div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></div><div><br /></div></div></div></div></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-27655651902110594392011-02-24T13:08:00.004+10:002011-02-24T13:14:29.295+10:00Chandeliers- A whole lot of luxe!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd5vID96LzGkfNINxLKgR-HYZM1XCa8zQArwp976230KoCUfYCPEGUy_9GD4Sw9JjBMl3XbpjzEHBpkdHK4RftfhImp7vZtqCJ1SPZQbKUWbbuhWStfJpBsRg9WUyupbcvqcer6-tCtU8/s1600/D0383P_DEANNA_CHANDELIER_PINK_8-1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 340px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd5vID96LzGkfNINxLKgR-HYZM1XCa8zQArwp976230KoCUfYCPEGUy_9GD4Sw9JjBMl3XbpjzEHBpkdHK4RftfhImp7vZtqCJ1SPZQbKUWbbuhWStfJpBsRg9WUyupbcvqcer6-tCtU8/s400/D0383P_DEANNA_CHANDELIER_PINK_8-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577088930659752082" /></a><br />We've decided to add a whole lot of luxe to our range at Little Light House!

They come in a set of 4 baskets which stack inside each other, and are really useful for all those bits and pieces which little girls accumulate! The smallest is great for hair bands, clips, etc, and each size is useful for holding all sorts of things.

My heart sinks, and the process starts again. Someone needed to come up with a great idea to get babies from arms to cot without disturbing them.<div><br /></div><div>Well, how's this for a clever device? Attach the bassinette to a rocking chair and away you go! No worries about spoiling the baby by having them go to sleep in your arms, and if you are lucky you will nod off to sleep also!</div><div><br /></div><div>Perhaps a short term fix, but I love the innovative thinker who came up with this piece of furniture - no doubt bleary-eyed in the middle of the night after going through the abovementioned scenario themselves!</div><div><br /></div><div>Where to buy one, well these ones are called the Rockid from <a href="http://www.ontwerpduo.nl">Ontwerpduo</a>.

Georgie is an Interior Designer based in Tamworth NSW, and she services that area and its surrounding districts. Georgie loves to go on a mission for her clients in order to find unique and exciting products, products which they are not going to find in any other home close by. "It is all about hand picking the finer details for my clients that will complete their brief, over and above their expectations" says Georgie.<div><br /><div>With this in mind, Georgie approached <a href="http://www.littlelighthouse.com.au/">Little Light House</a> about our "Flowers" -Hot Pink lampshade for a client's daughter. The bedlinen was lovely, yet it required something to give it the "Wow" factor. "Flowers" - Hot Pink with its gorgeous colours and silver detail was just the thing. Added to this was one of our new cushions, and as the photo below shows, she created a lovely bedroom for a lucky little girl.</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgudQS_jqbBkbLeBYdlUqSTGmMsWMYMYk1xTFBOMPnlf_EB_8IPd3aQfsbFGrFRLEb5rwT_fxwXA2eRr_JcOAt8h0hJRJZCq9l0el681z55gES66EXB5QF2dXDUoVFYiU6EO7z8QprXQDY/s320/Picture+848.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5520783028356817666" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 239px; " /></span></span></span></div></div><div>Georgie can be contacted on M. 0427 428 244.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXbpPYyxmhfs-l2RIWu3FyUJkel2-fUxhLevZBwLBWZl2qAeAfYfFwn8Wlm5iJC30nz99-qf7lyoXBg7wCm25jhNfQCRrs9848zR7rZkmrXxmOrBgmhdlFmwYaUuBVqum8qsDLoUw-6vo/s400/Red+Chair+Interior+E%233A4014.bmp" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5520782512459543602" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 184px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; " /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: underline; "><br /></span></span></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-4281249633448051732010-09-11T10:09:00.006+10:002010-09-11T10:21:54.764+10:00Our new Cylinder shades with legs.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYnWBW_eujdh9u_Tu6FiRs2bc_8IWXuRniaJBxr7DWzqKdl5rXz3PBdcboD3MUjTbo4Y4yn9mwy22UrFsI-oVsZkQcWr_GC2EqMrNdAdKf-Hg_op6CAMKo6oCLADQuQXJLGNmievLEY6Y/s1600/Flowers+blue+cylinder+with+feet.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYnWBW_eujdh9u_Tu6FiRs2bc_8IWXuRniaJBxr7DWzqKdl5rXz3PBdcboD3MUjTbo4Y4yn9mwy22UrFsI-oVsZkQcWr_GC2EqMrNdAdKf-Hg_op6CAMKo6oCLADQuQXJLGNmievLEY6Y/s320/Flowers+blue+cylinder+with+feet.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5515442787515624082" /></a><br />I am excited to say we have a new lighting option at <a href="http://www.littlelighthouse.com.au/">Little Light House</a>.

Having a diameter of 7" and height of 40cms, these stylish cylinders stand on their own three 'feet' when it comes to modern lighting. They are equipped with a power cord with an online switch for easy use - so simple, yet a contemporary lighting option for the young, modern child!<div><br /></div><div>Shown above is <a href="http://www.littlelighthouse.com.au/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=9&Itemid=12&vmcchk=1&Itemid=12">"Flowers" - Blue</a>, but you can choose any of our gorgeous fabrics, or even supply your own, to have this style of shade made.

So, I set about searching online for a beautiful gift for her. I stumbled across a very talented soap maker here in Australia, based in NSW - <a href="http://www.beguile.com.au/">Kathy from Beguile</a>. <div><br /></div><div>All of <a href="http://www.beguile.com.au/">Beguile's</a> products are handmade by Kathy, and are inspired by nature to help give us beautiful, healthy skin while delighting our senses. To create her natural, fragrant, skin loving, luxurious products she uses only the earth's finest natural ingredients from the botanical world. The skin is our largest organ, and anything we place on it can be absorbed directly into our bodies, so using natural products, instead of harsh chemicals and un-natural ingredients can make a big difference to our health.</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="http://www.beguile.com.au/">Beguile</a> not only makes gorgeous soaps, but body scrubs, skin elixirs, pure oils, lip balms, etc, etc. And all the products smell and look divine, while working their natural magic on our bodies. My Mum will love her special birthday gift this year! </div><div><br /></div><div>With Mothers' Day fast approaching, why not check out <a href="http://www.beguile.com.au/">Beguile's website</a> and order something special for your Mum!</div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrE-XPClxxFKx1k6-Shd8o3efJrn-6oSQNW8KbNjbHPJrL-TSqnfwkO3CJsG1rHAf_1fTtfHVSTw7zI0gCtVBsQiXpe4l1pklGm0_LyFRaml0p3Y6K9bm-IbUePjfRH220C1xGFRTXrvE/s1600/flirt.jpg"><br /><br /></a></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfn_X9G5_iGtxFXK2fv0mziDSEVrJecusOFWPbORVugblrxmGm0wBOhJRmp7xbGlqWsg_IItWAbgnBYfBAT1IdNS2ZUZO00Jzy_S44pB-UY1-GYaFKIMTOxa36VdTotl42_vHHP1rMUFU/s1600/delish.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfn_X9G5_iGtxFXK2fv0mziDSEVrJecusOFWPbORVugblrxmGm0wBOhJRmp7xbGlqWsg_IItWAbgnBYfBAT1IdNS2ZUZO00Jzy_S44pB-UY1-GYaFKIMTOxa36VdTotl42_vHHP1rMUFU/s200/delish.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462820718161885202" style="float: left; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px; " /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrE-XPClxxFKx1k6-Shd8o3efJrn-6oSQNW8KbNjbHPJrL-TSqnfwkO3CJsG1rHAf_1fTtfHVSTw7zI0gCtVBsQiXpe4l1pklGm0_LyFRaml0p3Y6K9bm-IbUePjfRH220C1xGFRTXrvE/s1600/flirt.jpg" style="text-decoration: none;"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrE-XPClxxFKx1k6-Shd8o3efJrn-6oSQNW8KbNjbHPJrL-TSqnfwkO3CJsG1rHAf_1fTtfHVSTw7zI0gCtVBsQiXpe4l1pklGm0_LyFRaml0p3Y6K9bm-IbUePjfRH220C1xGFRTXrvE/s200/flirt.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462820502831648658" style="float: right; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px; " /></a><br /></div>Sue Jacksonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13753160478894208213noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2277429984741708561.post-19278030808668727782010-03-26T16:05:00.004+10:002010-04-14T08:39:42.638+10:00Bondville<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQq7sk7RBoBGySyWJn-2nw-ZjiDPnHLTRfL8wnvFnzUNC0eLDUdpnU-iCKRGLj1V5H9M2_XVnNztzkQvTPgerdqlb1m3ifcgehREG3Gtx2n6rmMdcz0zuaPRwgZT452UjT2wG0WdecNPg/s1600/bondville_wide3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 76px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQq7sk7RBoBGySyWJn-2nw-ZjiDPnHLTRfL8wnvFnzUNC0eLDUdpnU-iCKRGLj1V5H9M2_XVnNztzkQvTPgerdqlb1m3ifcgehREG3Gtx2n6rmMdcz0zuaPRwgZT452UjT2wG0WdecNPg/s400/bondville_wide3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5459754652117142066" /></a><br />The lovely Steph Bond is the creative talent behind Bondville, a very stylish blog covering all things for baby, child, mum, and home.
