I posted a few weeks back about my magazine reviews. My review featured in Irish Country Magazine which I was very proud of. For those of you that are not familiar with this magazine, Irish Country Magazine is bursting with fashion, beauty and lifestyle tips, features on inspiring rural women, makeovers with women who love farming and fashion, health, beauty and wellbeing. It's got interiors inspiration, gardening pages and how to grow your own vegetables. My next magazine feature will be on IKEA's online magazine for Ireland which will feature my new home, they contacted me through my blog :)

 

 

  

 

These doors are all so unique, I took the photographs while on holidays in Madeira. They are really interesting, located in the Old Town of Funchal.

 

There is a chill in the morning air...

Time to get the warmer clothes out...

Spending more time indoors...

Stocking up the timber logs for the stove...

And spending lots of time drinking tea and keeping cosy at the fire... oh and blogging too. I love Autumn time...

I got some good news when I returned from my honeymoon. My blog has been shortlisted in the Best Personal Blog Category of the Blog Awards Ireland. Blog Awards Ireland will bring together the Irish online community collaborating in a single event on 13th October 2012 to celebrate blogging in Ireland. Before this event the finalist list will be published on 29th September, so fingers crossed for All things nice... The Awards offers businesses an opportunity to increase their visibility and prominence in social media circles. With more people being guided in their buying decisions by bloggers rather than friends opinions, blogging is a considerably influential tool in word of mouth marketing. The main sponsors of the Awards is Grafton Media and the Best Personal Blog category is sponsored by Red Oak Tax Refunds. Thank you to all those involved in the Awards and for all those blogs that have been shortlisted..

The owner is a local actor who has spend over €1 million on the castle to date. He is believed to be a cousin of Prince Michael of Greece. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
