If you're looking for something to do tomorrow (Sunday the 27th Nov) in the Ipswich/Brisbane area, why not head out to Wolston House at Wacol for their annual Christmas fair. There will be a couple of art/craft stalls, trash and treasure (which, incidentally, is where I found this treasure a few years ago), food and entertainment.
It starts at 11am and is open until 4pm. Entry is adults at childrens prices, $4. Tour the grounds and house, stay for a devonshire tea and come and say hi to me and my Mum!
Those of you who have been reading my little blog for awhile may remember last year when I lost my little man, Maxi. It's been really tough without him and I have wanted for quite some time a painted piece of him. I've got a heap of photos (of course) but wanted something just that little bit more special. Enter a very talented lady that volunteers along with my Mum at Wolston House. She specialises in animal portraits and was more than happy to have a go at painting my little Maxi. And what a marvellous job she has done. It brought me to tears.
Thank you Roslyn, I just love it.
This coming Sunday (the 16th of May) Wolston House will be holding an open day for Heritage Week. Gold coin donation entry. Tour the house and grounds, grab a devonshire tea, stay for the sausage sizzle or bring your own picnic lunch. There will even be a couple of craft stalls. It's a great way to spend a lazy Sunday while raising some funds to keep National Trust properties like this one going. I'll be there along with my fabulous Mum, come and say Hi, we'd love to see you there!
P.S. Remember back here I did a photo shoot with Holly, the kinder girl? Well, that was Wolston House, pretty nice hey?!
