My only observation is that people don’t decorate tents.

Waking up every two and half hours has destroyed my brain and I appear to have got lost in the world of shabby chic blogging, including Shabby goes camping from where I nabbed that marvellous post title.
Round here we just do shabby, which involves a lot less cushions and white terriers.

Good lord is nothing sacred? I’m with you on the more shabby than chic. Definite lack of cat claw destroyed lounges in those photos.

Decoration? Camping? Madness.
Come on, anything that involves a longdrop toilet *cannot* be made chic.
I once did a job of stocktaking work in a High Craft shop in a hoity-toity northern suburb of Sydney, which gloried in the name of Kate’s Touch Of Country. The boss lightened the mood on the early-morning start with a spoonerised version, which became a running joke, and, alas, accidentally made it onto the invoice and tax receipt given to the owners. Ah well, at least we never had to go back.

Style tip #1: ditch the baby and spend time wittily arranging cushions; or
Style tip #2: keep baby, speedily arrange baby-proof gates & keep everything above one metre.
We’ve just done emergency pre-hosting playgroup cleaning…

…and Style tip #3: foam yellow ear plugs, with optional alternative caregiver to tend wakeful baby.
Hope the little one discovers the gentle art of sleeping through soon. Mine hasn’t.

Note to self:
When referring to the wreckage that is our home, simply replace wreckage with shabby chic.
