I have this shadow.
It follows me everywhere.
I go somewhere, so does he.
It drives Brunnel mad that the only other male in the family is such a Mummy's boy.
This week I was trying to take some photos of these cute little postcards that we've just had printed for the store.
My shadow wasn't going to let me do it by myself.
No, he was quite happy to be shut in the bathroom (where this black wall is) while I busied myself with my postcard washing line.
Frankly, it was better having him in there than scratching on the door to be let in from the other side. And his opinion on the styling is always invaluable.
He likes it - every time! I can do no wrong!
But I wasn't so sure I wanted him actually in the photo too.
Photogenic as you are Bruno.
Obviously, starring in one of the postcard images wasn't enough.
He wants to help promote them too!
The postcards themselves are a series of 8 'quick fix' interior ideas. They all feature themes and ideas that we love to explore in our own interiors, and are easy for everyone to explore with a little time and not a great deal of expense. Just for fun, on the back of each card is a recipe that one of our team has contributed - delicious things like Zana's Ricotta Fritters with Hot Chocolate, or Karen's Lamb Curry.
And we're giving them away instore over the next few months.
Hope your week is going beautifully.

PS That black wall! What a find huh! As soon as it was revealed I knew it wasn't going to be covered up again. But I had to work hard to persuade my architect that this was going to be the case.
Sure, it did require some kind of sealant to stop it 'crying', but just look at it now - and the black is such a great colour.

The postcards and black wall look lovely Amanda, but the star of this post is definitely Bruno - what a star!! He is adorable and look at the expression on hs face. I hope he pops up again soon x
ReplyDeleteThe postcards sound like a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI just adore Bruno! He has that look on his face of 'Is this right mum?' ' Am I sitting in the right spot?' 'Am I a good boy?' So cute x
Bruno looks very handsome in from of your fab black wall. I have a similar wusy shadow! Love the postcard idea, I hope I might make it down to Wellington to see them up close. x
ReplyDeleteO bless him! He's beautiful. Isn't it nice to be so loved?!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie...I too have a shadow...my adorable ridgeback, she's right here with me now. Looking forlorn though, because she doesn't like me on the computer.

What a sweet little 'shadow' - he looks like he honestly thinks the photo is all about him :) Hilarious! Love the black wall too x
ReplyDeleteAh Bruno looks like quite the charming man to be following one about. And as for the quick fix postcards - what a great idea!
ReplyDeletewhat a cute little shadow - he looks like a perfect gentleman!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm such a sucker for a black wall, they can do no wrong in my book! xx
Thank you for your beautiful message dear Amanda, it meant so much to me to hear you echoing the same thoughts too. Puppy Lulu is Bruno in negative, wish you lived closer so we could set up a puppy play date! Hope you are managing to survive another Wellington Winter.
