Double Dose of Polka Dots - Domestic Goddess

This Monday's double dose of polka dots is dedicated to the upcoming party season. Everyone knows that Christmas is all about the pretty frocks, parties, friends, family, presents, and of course, food! If we are all to become the perfect domestic goddesses this Christmas (It's a tough job but someone's got to do it!) then we need a lovely polka dot apron to stop getting our pretty dresses covered in cake mix and cookie dough!

Double Dose number one: I adore this gorgeous English Rose Bow Pocket Apron - £23.99 from Dolly Dagger. It's just the thing to wear whilst making those festive mince pies, peeling spuds for the roast dinner and baking Christmas cupcakes.

Double Dose of Polka Dots: Retro Spot Cake Tin Set - £24.95 from Dollydagger. These polka dot cake tins are just the ticket for storing all the cakes, cookies, and mince pies ready for the Christmas festivities!

Summer Garden!

I have been inspired by the beautiful weather to write a summer garden blog post. To prepare for the summer weather I have given our garden a good tidy and sort out. I started thinking... there is definitely something missing from our garden... colour! For me summer is about bright colours and sunshine. But my garden, (lovely as it is) is green, green, and more green. So I made myself a little visual wish list on Polyvore to help brighten up my garden this summer.

I love the mini BBQ perfect for a garden that is short on space, and of course no BBQ should be without this gorgeous floral apron!

Garden tea party by abbiehayden featuring Dahlia dresses

What I am looking forward to most is tea parties in the garden this summer, and what tea party is complete without cupcakes, tea pots, cake stands... and bunnies!
