DesignsbyLILLIES: Days like this can only but make you smile!
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/days-like-this-can-only-but-make-you.html
Saturday, 2 April 2011. Days like this can only but make you smile! Sometimes, what seems like bad news at the time, with the wonder of hindsight actually turns out to be good news. Redundancy could be one of the best things that has happened to me. I think every now and then we all need that little extra push in the right direction. Tonight, I came home to find Mark busy on the decking painting some Daisies, Stars and Mini Sailing Boats ready to make up for a later date. This evening I shall start wrapp...

DesignsbyLILLIES: One of my favourite times of year is nearly here .... EASTER!
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/one-of-my-favourite-times-of-year-is.html
Thursday, 7 April 2011. One of my favourite times of year is nearly here . EASTER! I love nothing more than buying wonderful chocolate treats for myself, my friends and my loved ones at Easter. Lots of bowls of brightly coloured sweets normally fill the house, sitting beautifully alongside the vases of daffodils and tulips. Colour everywhere; it can only but make you smile. However, I am rather fond of the smaller, legless ones too! The children were very excited about the up and coming holidays; well yo...

DesignsbyLILLIES: Easter Tree
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/easter-tree.html
Wednesday, 20 April 2011. You may remember the other day I wrote about our hunt for the perfect branches for our Easter Tree and I promised to post some pictures of the finished article. Well after a lot of tweaking and umming and aahing, here it finally is. I found some lovely hedgerow flowers to add a bit of colour and although the branches weren't the best we have ever found; a little sparse when it came to greenery shall I say, I actually quite like it. Our Mini Easter Chick in an Easter Yellow.

DesignsbyLILLIES: Easter Tree Hunting
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/easter-tree-hunting.html
Thursday, 14 April 2011. In my blog the other day I talked about our yearly tradition of heading off into the woods to look for the perfect branch that would have the very important job of being our Easter Tree. Mark is away now working for a few days and as he will be away for Easter weekend as well, we thought it was best to do it sooner rather than later. So with wellies, penknife and a rucksack filled with nibbles at the ready, Mark, Molly (our Westie) and I headed towards Vellanoweth Woods. I have t...

DesignsbyLILLIES: April 2011
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 20 April 2011. Along with fields of Daffodils and Tulips lining florists shop fronts, his wooden signs adorned with the usual bright red strawberry is one of the sure signs Spring is here and Summer is definitely around the corner. The lane becomes alive with tempted locals and holiday makers alike, who see the signs at the crossroads and turn off to grab that small or large wonderful punnet of beautiful ruby red strawberries. I'll always remember my Mother's dining room window looking like a ...

Tuesday, 12 April 2011. Out of the Blue . Is a beautiful gallery situated in the heart of Marazion; the gateway to St Michaels Mount. You will find it happily sat in the main square; a beautiful and very 'blue' old building which has held many purposes over the years.

Many people enjoy taking photos of the small...

DesignsbyLILLIES: Country Living Fair
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/country-living-fair.html
Wednesday, 6 April 2011. Just over a week ago, Mark and I visited the Country Living Fair at the Business Design Centre in Islington. However, I have to say, I forgot how busy the show could get, especially on a Saturday. This was in a nice quiet area! So two very excited people ran around the corner of the stands to find there it was . Our Mini Sailing Boat! And we thought, looking rather lovely! By the end of the day, I have to say we were absolutely shattered. We had a lot of information to digest...

DesignsbyLILLIES: There's a first time for everything!
http://designsbylillies.blogspot.com/2011/04/theres-first-time-for-everything.html
Friday, 1 April 2011. There's a first time for everything! Well, where to start! This is the first blog I have ever written so you will have to bear with me. I'm sure as I go along I will find the whole process a lot easier. I shan't tell you how many hours it has taken me just to get the page how I liked it, but after a lot of discussions with my very patient boyfriend Mark, we are finally here! We make all the products from our home near the very beautiful St Michaels Mount in Cornwall. When we arrived...
