From Garden to Vase ...Join us at Puriri Lane on Friday 20 November for a workshop on creating your own floral masterpiece made with seasonal flowers foraged from our gardens.

Garden stylist Fiona Henderson will show you how to put together a creation using flowers from Puriri Lane and then it's over to you to create your own with Fiona on hand for support and advice.

Lots of treasures to be shared tomorrow at the Alberton 1863 vintage market day. You’ll find Fossick & Furnish next to Johnny’s mobile eggcup museum. Full details under events.

Just finished tarting up this retro yellow ironing board for tomorrow’s vintage market day at . “But how are you going to do any ironing on it?” asked my perplexed husband. Err, that’s kinda the point old fella. I mean, who cares about a few creases when your ironing board could be used as a picnic booze bar or plant stand instead?
