Friday Flowers.. Splash of Red.



I had hoped to have organised a 'special Friday Flowers' this week but time has run away with me for some reason this week! And to be truthful if I don't visit this special 'Friday Flowers' person & shop it won't be Palatial Living blog post worthy and I'd hate to disappoint you! So I have pencilled it into my diary and have to get myself into gear and make a time to visit and hopefully interview too!
 I also received a lovely phone call yesterday from [hopefully] a new client who I am hoping to help with her window treatments, some decor pieces and colour palettes for her new home...Funnily enough the person who got me in contact with the 'secret' Friday Flowers person - also referred my [hopeful] new client to me. Her name is Victoria Louis and she runs a fabulous photography workshops 'A Beautiful Workshop' aka The Nuts and Bolts Workshop - she is a PR & Marketing whiz , and in a former life [pre-children] was the marketing manager at Pacific magazines [Home Beautiful and the likes]. Be sure to check out Victoria and her business partner Cathy Crawley's - website HERE. 
So today you have my garden - these are pic I took of my Scarlet red carpet roses that I have growing on one side of our fence - really to prevent the two Houdini's aka Lucy & Zach our Cavalier & Cavoodle from making next door their new home! I recently painted our parameter fence one of my fave colours from the Dulux exterior paint selections 'Ironstone' - it really helps to make the yard appear deeper & all our flowers and foliage 'pop'!
Thank you for visiting Palatial Living this week...
I look forward to bring you more stylish Palatial activity next week. Happy Weekend & Enjoy!

Isabelle's Tara Rose...




This is the first time this pretty rose has bloomed since my Mum bought it [from the Tara school market day] for our daughter, Isabelle back in May this year...
It's called the 'Tara Rose' and was specially created & named for the school that both my sister & I attended for our [entire] school life. It's such a beautiful rose, the pink is both vibrant and delicate all at the same time, and shows up even more so against the painted fence [colour is Dulux 'Ironstone' full tint]. I gave it a little drink this evening so I hope there will be a few more blooms from it yet!
