Alan Hannah Dream Bouquet

Once upon a time...there was a beautiful bride who wanted a bouquet to match her wedding dress, and ohh what a stunning dress it was!

She sent her ideas to a Vintage Magpie who's imagination was awash with ideas.....

Parcels arrived from the wondrous dress maker Alan Hannah.....with beautiful tissue wrapped surprises......

Silver and white...with a serious heap of twinkling sparkle.....handmade Alan Hannah daisy flowers, crystal drops, vintage millinery flowers, and sparkling jewels.....

Image with thanks from Alan Hannah

Add a dress made of heaven...and you will be soaring with the stars on your wedding day.....

....This bouquet was a little Vintage Magpie Dream come true....I love it....Enjoy Jo xxx

Saying Goodbye

The Wonderful Dutchman and I have been experiencing rather a lot of changes since we got married.


The biggest has been moving from our beautiful Home in Brighton. The reason is fantastically exciting, but never the less I was incredibly sad about it.


I have lived there for 4 years. First with my darling sister, until she bought herself an adorable flat near by. Then with that Wonderful Dutchman of mine!

It is where friendships were forged, family gathered, & secrets told. It was where we shared our first kiss....fell in Love, got Engaged, and got Married.

It has seen such love, laughter, fun and happiness, that locking the door the final time was heart breaking.


So many wondrous moments....I shall miss it...but my heart is heavy with happy memories and surly that is what this life of ours is all about.


The next Chapter of my life is starting....being Mrs Bakker is just divine!

A Miracle unfolded in front of my eyes this morning......

....A true miracle.... I am amazed at what Faith, Hope and Love can achieve...

33 men and their families.... an inspiration to a Magpie in little old England... and hopefully to the rest of the world.
