<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello my dearests!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">First of all, I want to thank all</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">of you who left me such lovely comments</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">on my last post.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family:

center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>tutte coloro le quali hanno lasciato</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>commenti così carini al mio ultimo post.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, the bad news I've had last week</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">is that my mother in law and her partner split up.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, as they lived toghether, my mother in law had to </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">bring all her things and come back to live in her old flat,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">which hasn't been inhabited for years.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For now, she is staying with us, untill the old flat</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">is cleaned and ok.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last week - and also this week - I'm helping her</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">with the moving.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Allora, la cattiva notizia che ho avuto la settimana scorsa,</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>è che mia suocera e il suo compagno si sono lasciati.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Quindi, dato che vivevano insieme, mia suocera</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>ha dovuto prendere tuttte le sue cose e tornare a vivere</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>nel suo vecchio appartamento</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>che non era abitato da anni</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Quindi, per ora, stà da noi, in attesa che </em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>l'appartamento sia a posto.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>La scorsa settimana - e anche questa - </em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>l'ho aiutata con il trasloco.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">We are all still shocked by this news,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">but I think that she did a very courageous thing:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">she decided to start a new life, which, at 60 years old</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">means a great strenght.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Siamo ancora tutti sotto shock dalla notizia,</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>ma io penso che lei abbia fatto una cosa molto coraggiosa:</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em> ha deciso di ricominciare una nuova vita, il che, a 60 anni suonati,</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><em><span style="font-family: Verdana;">significa avere una grande forza.</span> </em></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As you may deduce,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">there a lot of other thoughts about this fact in my mind right now.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But at the moment I feel like I'm in the eye of the storm,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">and I'm so busy trying to help my mother in law,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">that I have no time to bring them into a order.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Come potrete dedurre,</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>ho un sacco di altri pensieri in testa riguardo questo fatto.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>Ma mi sento come nell'occhio del ciclone</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>e sono così impegnata ad aiutare - per quanto possibile -</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><em>mia suocera, che non ho il tempo per metterli in ordine.</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A consequence of this new fact is that</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">we are having a lot of new furniture</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">which my mother in law is giving to us</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">as she has no place to put them in her old flat.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">One of this is this ancient French coffe table. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><em><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Una conseguenza di questo nuovo fatto</span></em></div><div style="text-align: center;"><em><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">è che stiamo ricevendo un po' di nuovi mobili</span></em></div><div style="text-align:

Clayfield - a work in progress

For some time now, I've been working on a very special project. My sister lives in a gorgeous old worker's cottage in the Brisbane suburb of Clayfield, and I've been helping her with its renovation. I absolutely love old Queenslanders, so not only do I get to work with my lovely sister, I also get to play with her very cute house! <br /><br />We've spent a long time looking for the perfect dining table and chairs, and as space is limited we needed to find something quite petite. Take a look at what we found - a beautiful french bistro table and four bentwood chairs, with lovely pressed seats. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaNUGt0VI-JyJ0lVX2rkTWRa7ZFiUBaBiBfyTT6UPHPcs0RrM_bGS79HgzHadfVMUa7pc3HVc2B8wsOkJxMOPyT0CjULVhQ2TzbwKeA5EPybT2CMlxX7HWAwppdVqdVwjto_tXIaB-Uis/s1600/DSC02815.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaNUGt0VI-JyJ0lVX2rkTWRa7ZFiUBaBiBfyTT6UPHPcs0RrM_bGS79HgzHadfVMUa7pc3HVc2B8wsOkJxMOPyT0CjULVhQ2TzbwKeA5EPybT2CMlxX7HWAwppdVqdVwjto_tXIaB-Uis/s400/DSC02815.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaQRTXoqk_cwd0FDsqVxByWohAN6Br5PCm5zkpBEN81lfOtyJstEXOqBmBQe32rDc7QpxXQZVdYlKmuNj8QSowS7JcFiinNjYBMOlhOJXRpB3lb0c2k-8JOqsjxZR_VqYu3bNxFJoYQoo/s1600/DSC02810.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaQRTXoqk_cwd0FDsqVxByWohAN6Br5PCm5zkpBEN81lfOtyJstEXOqBmBQe32rDc7QpxXQZVdYlKmuNj8QSowS7JcFiinNjYBMOlhOJXRpB3lb0c2k-8JOqsjxZR_VqYu3bNxFJoYQoo/s320/DSC02810.JPG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">isn't the detail lovely?</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqYnCrqcwmpHswh5PLMCxEsKH6CmtwdwXW6CI0bPcSw1DpzqaRUaAxc8ct5oXNW-0vldSoDwwAQzE_iA0gVZQSjBnuLUMgXreVflnu0ftnrfYtS4XeeuvzfQWEIER0H1hbIJr-efcInnY/s1600/DSC02809.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqYnCrqcwmpHswh5PLMCxEsKH6CmtwdwXW6CI0bPcSw1DpzqaRUaAxc8ct5oXNW-0vldSoDwwAQzE_iA0gVZQSjBnuLUMgXreVflnu0ftnrfYtS4XeeuvzfQWEIER0H1hbIJr-efcInnY/s400/DSC02809.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUeurrRZk-LaQa1zh6jx5x9dOE6PfS3SJy6XuraG3zRu3ESlnL22pIXpA4Koaof4je5rwZBstMsfr5H7j0cpXWdUbCuO9kwK4SXflC3_ntEox9NrrcUwyoMbt3UD0jwQrUYTDZK5EWSjM/s1600/DSC02799.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUeurrRZk-LaQa1zh6jx5x9dOE6PfS3SJy6XuraG3zRu3ESlnL22pIXpA4Koaof4je5rwZBstMsfr5H7j0cpXWdUbCuO9kwK4SXflC3_ntEox9NrrcUwyoMbt3UD0jwQrUYTDZK5EWSjM/s400/DSC02799.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">the base is cast iron - gorgeous</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtrVdJrsHJRO9WbzseXb-OLH6Ze5Pk7kb8daDtT6XpRQvmc0N90WeeOwNx9GxT5uEH2E6bp5ZV07EOJytRThOkd-U6uLg1ndALCyhVDRovZChrIcILqGnplAz07YGa2CIihttrueSeVWc/s1600/DSC02796.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtrVdJrsHJRO9WbzseXb-OLH6Ze5Pk7kb8daDtT6XpRQvmc0N90WeeOwNx9GxT5uEH2E6bp5ZV07EOJytRThOkd-U6uLg1ndALCyhVDRovZChrIcILqGnplAz07YGa2CIihttrueSeVWc/s400/DSC02796.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghLBR2E-YLa_TNfTUzn5vHsv1Bmqd9uA8R8E7RsdwSbzGBtgJci4K7tjgRevIhoVt7bn_5ePB3l6x8iks_-Be14Cpn4bvqUvhDopP5jmx8D_JlTe1S2UDeA7lnwEHjopB9PMnB7MhRXRw/s1600/DSC02801.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghLBR2E-YLa_TNfTUzn5vHsv1Bmqd9uA8R8E7RsdwSbzGBtgJci4K7tjgRevIhoVt7bn_5ePB3l6x8iks_-Be14Cpn4bvqUvhDopP5jmx8D_JlTe1S2UDeA7lnwEHjopB9PMnB7MhRXRw/s400/DSC02801.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">and we couldn't resist these antique french candle sticks </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Now, for those of you who are unfamiliar with the Queenslander style, take a look at this home, which I posted about <a href="http://driftwood-interiors.blogspot.com/2010/03/perfect-queenslanderpart-ii.html#comments">here</a>.

I can't wait to share the finished product with you, it's quite the transformation. The house was completely original, and the kitchen consisted of a cupboard, a sink and an ancient sandstone fireplace. We now have a charming and airy space which complements the original cottage beautifully. Of course, when the tiling is complete I'll be sure to post all the pics! </div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/85794/shatay01/57292ae3db79c6d939a1f2a85508a076.png" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border: 0pt none ! important;" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Oh, and do you remember this <a href="http://driftwood-interiors.blogspot.com/2010/03/pony-boy.html">post</a> about the little pony I found?
