Bubs Nursery Plans

I cant wait to start decorating our spare room with Baby stuff!

In the spirit of sustainability (and because we are flat broke!!) most of the items we get will be second hand, vintage, or handmade but I just couldn't resist browsing a few websites and picking out my favourite items.
I wont be purchasing much but these items are on the top of my must have list!
(& yes I have gone a little Ikea mad!)

We will be finding out if its a boy or a girl in a few weeks but this wont have much of an effect on my style. Im sticking to my favourite primary colours (SO not a pink person) for a fun and colourful but gender neutral nursery that matches the rest of our apartment - plus I figure Bub isn't going to care about the interior decoration for the first year or two!

               1. Bed Canopy Ikea                
2. Bedside Table Ikea
4. Baby Wraps Target
5. Replica Eames Rocker Matt Blatt
6. Sheepskin Rug Ikea
7. Emu & Kangaroo Grow Suit Hard To Find
9. Table Lamp Ikea
10. Bassinet Target

Exciting News!

My Love and Me and BABY makes THREE !!!!!!

Onesies from EleventyFive store on ETSY - HERE
Yep we are having a bubba, its a very exciting time for us and I apologise in advance for bombarding you with baby inspired posts and news. 

This announcement will probably explain my sporadic posts here of late. With so much going on blogging has not been at the front of my mind, and to tell you the truth I've been finding it REALLY hard trying to keep up with everyday life and chores and my 5 days a week day job let along making time for My Handmade Heart.........Pregnancy sure has taken its toll on me however I've been fairly lucky with no real sickness just TOTAL exhaustion and NO energy to spare!

Im hoping now that I have some energy back though that I will be making more regular visits here to keep you up to date and share all my inspiration for my new project -  DESIGNING THE NURSERY! What FUN!!!

You can bet that our Bub will have a typical Handmade style Nursery with a few modern and vintage twists thrown in and Lots of My Handmade Heart goodness.

Cant wait to share it all with you!!

Hause of Glassborow on Temple & Webster

I've been gone for SO long!

I've made my return to the Wide World Web slowly, starting with Instagram, working back up to Facebook and now back to Blogging!!

I wasn't planning on making today my first day back but a great friend of mine has just had her work featured on Temple and Webster and I can't think of any better way to get back in the saddle than by sharing it all with you! 


I was SUPER excited when I saw this blog piece on HAUSE OF GLASSBOROW!!  Johanna and I have known each other since we were both kidlets and she has been an amazing supportive and loving friend of mine for many years. I have so much love for this girl and can't tell you how proud I am of her turning her lifelong love and passion for design and art into a super successful business! She is one of the hardest working women I know and uncompromising in her own unique sense of style! 

Click here to READ the interview on Temple & Webster!!



You will want to check out her WEBSITE and ONLINE STORE after reading the interview, her work is so unique and modern and her deign style is well ahead of its time!  

HOORAY FOR HAUSE OF GLASSBOROW & my wonderful marvellous friend Jo!
