Week 8 of our linkup and guess what? Laurie and I actually did link up in real life in london yesterday! So how has your week been so far?
Mine was brightened up by some autumn flowers…
My week 8 so far:
The good:
laurie and I had so much fun together and as a special bonus we also met up with the gorgeous Anna from Anna’s Island Style blog
As I am sure you can imagine (and as always happens when bloggers get together) the chat flowed and an hour disappeared in the blink of an eye! Here is a lovely pic that my son took of the 3 of us at lunch time…
I will post more about this soon.
Another piece of good news:
Just before I went away to Morocco I found out this little blog ‘Lazy Daisy Jones’ had been mentioned alongside some lovely other bloggers in a Dutch magazine called Maigret it is the equivalent of our ‘Woman’ magazine. I was very proud to see they like our bedroom and our handmade bed!
The headline says ‘the best Blogs for interior design’
This is the pic of our bedroom that they featured, we made and designed the bed ourselves!
The bad and the Ugly:
Well it can only be the weather, we had a storm called Brian in the UK at the weekend and the rain came down in buckets…but then again if that is all I have to complain about, I will count my lucky stars right?
My featured Bloggers from week 7 are:
Lyndsey who designed this superb display: from repurpose and upcycle
Jonet ‘Fabulously chic over 50’ who wrote a lovely post with a background of pumpkins!
Pop over to Laurie’s blog Vanity and me to see who she chose this week?
Will you Join us for Week 8 of the #AshleyandLaurieLinkup ?

When and where:
Every Thursday from 7am, on both our blogs.
What:
Any post on any subject you like from the last week. Instagram pics welcome too! (Please note your links are added are in random order.)
Why?
- You will discover new blogs to read and other people can discover your blog too. Win win!
- Laurie and I will each pick someone to feature each week from the week before, on both our blogs.
- It’s going to be lots of fun.
Link-up Etiquette
“We dont like rules, anything goes…just play nice and be polite”
However, because you are getting two links for the price of one, all we ask is that you leave a comment on both our blogs? Afterall you wouldn’t go to a party and ignore the host now would you?
(We may choose to remove your link if you haven’t done this!)
Badges:
If you like a pretty badge (who doesn’t?) then we would love you to use this one and spread the news.
Remember to copy all the code to add it to your blog post or sidebar.
Love to know what you have been up to this week! so do leave me a comment?
Ok lets link!
