diary of a mama: tea + cake
In this photographic series “diary of a mama” I want to simply share inspiration and captures from my days with my children. Honouring the sacred work of homemaking and child caring. You’ve all heard the saying, “a picture speaks a thousand words”. My intention is for these images to fill your soul with nourishment and a deep knowing that the work you do in your home + raising your children is sacred.

Hi I’m Natalie,
I hope to spark your creativity, and inspire you to bring beauty & magic into childhood.
When I'm not creating new projects for our Sewing Circle community or making another Waldorf doll, I love to help other women get their creative dreams out into the world. You can learn more about my mentoring here.
love your pretty looking crockery in the 1st picture .. and the baby toes! oh so delightfully tiny x
These are such beautiful little snippets of your weekend. Those precious little toes are just adorable and very kissable. That tea cup is very pretty too. Wishing you a beautiful Monday. xx
Seriously beautiful photos. I especially love the last one.
I adore your kitchen. Love the baby toes and little fingers touching the freshly baked cake. And another beautiful butterfly crown…so many people oohed and ahhed over the crown you made for Skye! Everything here is so sweet and pretty as always 🙂 xx
Just so very beautiful! Your world seems so peaceful and full of light. Thanks so much for sharing a snippet of it. Hope your week is a lovely one 🙂 x

holy moly, your kitchen is making me froth! One day (hopefully not too far into the distant future), we will be renovating our new house's kitchen and I am looking at the same style that you have, it is so beautiful! It's not an ikea kitchen by any chance? I found my "dream' kitchen there and it looks a lot like yours! Lovely images! 🙂
Little tiny baby feet! Ah, be still my heart! xo
*sigh* that was a delightful jaunt for my eyes. xxx
gorgeous photos!
Lovely photos, those little baby toes are divine! Jude x
Visiting via The Beetle Shack – gorgeous photos!
Just found you via Em. Love your pics, especially the foodie ones. And the summery skies – it's so cold and rainy here in England now…
your kitchen is my DREAM kitchen! I used to have those dining chairs too but they were too large for our space 🙂
thanks so much for joining in

Awww – leetle itsy baby toes, so beautiful… my tummy's gone all warm and fuzzy… (not getting clucky. deep breath. not getting clucky!) Love your photos. Adore your kitchen. A belfast sink is definitely on my wish list!
Hi Natalie, I have just discovered your blog this morning and what a gorgeous space to find. Love your kitchen and you gorgeous pics. xx Sonia
I LOVE the little butterfly crown, will you be making any to sell in your Etsy store?? I'd love one for my daughter for her birthday.
Oh thanks Lisa. If only it always looked that tidy!
Oliver (my husband) 'designed' the layout and built the cupboards etc (yes they are from IKEA and benchtops), the sink, taps, door knobs were all sourced separately elsewhere. The window I found at a salvage antique yard. We had a builder build the wooden rangehood, shelves and fit the window. We did the grouting (oh my how my photos and our house has changed! – http://thelittlegnomeshome.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/corners-of-our-home.html)

Hi Jes, Thank you! oh time is something I am so short of at the moment so I am not really putting any energy into my poor little ETSY store. I would be happy to make one for you depending on when you need it! Send me an email if you/ when you may like one and I shall let you know how I am going. Lovely to have you pop by x
