Hi Everyone, I just wanted to apologize for the issues some of you are having with commenting on this blog (and enormous thanks to those who alerted me to the issue). I appreciate that it takes up your precious time to leave a comment, and this must be immensely frustrating. I'm going to look into it, but to be honest, I'm not too sure where to start or what is causing people's comments to disappear (any suggestions?). Blogger hardly has a reputation for technological brillinace, but I'll do what I can. I promise! Just bear with me and please don't give up. I live for your comments!!! xLouise

Happy July, Tonic-ettes! And happy Friday!
Table Tonic: Let the next chapter begin!
Tomorrow sees the dawn of a new financial year. Boring words yes, but exciting ones when you own a small business (that demands as much time of you as a third child triplets)! I would like to take this opportunity to thank each of you who have made a purchase from the Table Tonic online store, since the virtual doors were flung open on 8th March last year. Who was my very first customer? Mrs Woog, of course! It's been a trip and a half - I've learned bucketloads. And I can still hear Mr Tonic saying: "But what if nobody buys anything?". But you did. Oodles of you did. And to know that the rainbow-hued wings of the Table Tonic have spread out so far and wide brings me the purest, deepest joy. I have some extraordinarily bright and beautiful new things in the pipeline, so as they say in the movies (or whatever), watch this space Tonic-ettes!

29.06.11 What I'm wearing today...
Today's threads: Fur vest (I bought a size medium) from eBay (here), Joanie Loves Chachi mohair knit, Bassike "slouchy slim" long sleeve men's tee underneath (here), Nudie Thin Finn men's jeans, Converse sneakers, Tiffany & Co. necklace with a vintage coin pendant, Isabel Marant herringbone bracelet (here), Tiffany & Co. silver bracelet (great for making the necklace longer too!).
Modern Wisdom
If you missed Beyonce's performance at Glastonbury, you have not lived. I've never called myself a Beyonce fan as such, but after seeing this clip of her on stage at the festival, I'm thinking of buying this t-shirt:
And just like that, I'm putting "See Beyonce live" on my "Things to do before you die" list.
Table Tonic says thank you!
The thrill of seeing Table Tonic and it's products on other blogs and online publications never loses it's shine - It warms my cockles every time. As an added bonus, if often a great way of discovering previously unknown websites, so here are a few BIG thank you's for this week: 1. A big "Merci!" to Amber of Amber Interiors for the lovely shout out on her blog a few days back! Table Tonic was featured in "Best from the Flip Side".
Google alerts tends to be hit and miss, so if you feature Table Tonic on your site, give me a yell! It's always wonderful "meeting" like-minded souls.
2. Issue 3 of Motif magazine is out now, and I was chuffed to see the Table Tonic Union Jack cushions get a mention! Thanks Motif!

(Very) Stylish Homes: Courtney Cox's Malibu retreat
The Elle Decor article begins: "Before becoming an actress, Courteney Cox wanted to be an architect." And it's certainly evident in what is undoubtedly one of my favourite celebrity homes to date.
(above) The full article appeared in the July/August 2011 issue of Elle Decor - read it here. It's a little bit masculine, surprisingly earthy and sophisticated to boot. Simply breathtaking. Take a look:
If I was building or renovating a house tomorrow (oh wait, we are!), this feature would be my complete and ultimate inspiration file. I think it's perfect. Looking forward to seeing this issue in my mailbox any day now! PS Huge thanks to fellow blogger Nicole of First House on the Right for the tip off!
Where do I get it: Friendship bracelets
If you're keen to jump on the friendship bracelet bandwagon (and for cheap-cheaps!), look no further than Etsy. After having immense success with my first foray into Etsy, I just knew this would end in tears of joy. PS Just bagged these four from Etsy seller The Cat Paradox. Twenty-something clams. All up! I know. Thank. Me. Later.
The Cat Paradox
Men's fashion week is currently on in Milan and I'm really enjoying the images coming through of all the smashingly dapper men - and they're all wearing friendship bracelets!

27.06.11 What I'm wearing today...
Today's threads: Isabel Marant sweater, Nudie Thin Finn jeans, Country Road belt, converse sneakers, Tiffany & Co. necklace with a vintage Russian coin pendant, Isabel Marant bracelet from Ruby and Talullah (click to buy - just email the girls and they'll even send it to Australia. Happy days!).
Blast from the past: The SHOP magazine shoot
Ooooh! I just found some pictures from the Shop til you Drop magazine shoot they did at our previous house, which appeared in their July 2010 issue. I thought these would brighten up the little TT blog nicely...
(above) Wearing a Scanlan & Theodore dress, a Table Tonic tribal necklace and K Jacques sandals. Table Tonic Vintage Suzani, coffee table found on eBay and painted white.
(above) An Hermes box, my beautiful poppy bowl from The Armchair, a mirrored vase from Freedom and some favourite books all reside on a side table found on eBay and painted gloss black.
(above) A few of my favourite things. Kelly Wearstler's "Modern Glamour", Vintage silver coasters from eBay, a Crabtree & Evelyn candle atop a tiger print ceramic dish and a vintage glass bottle with a bunch of plastic succulents from Spotlight.
(above) Rainbow reads in Jasper's room. Arranging the books by colour instantly neatens up a kid's room. Try it!
"The statues", which continue to grow on me every day!
(above) The blue chairs made quite a statement in the living room (looking back into the kitchen). Table Tonic Ikat cushions.
(above) A certain princess's favourite tutu (hanging off some Anthropologie coral knobs, sourced on eBay)!
(above) A Table Tonic Moroccan Wedding Blanket and Union Jack cushions (on the bed that wouldn't fit into our new bedroom!).
(above) This was the bookshelf joinery wall in our old kitchen and I miss it (and my books) dearly. One thing our new house doesn't have is bookshelves (or even spare walls for them!). Wearing: Indigo stripey top, Kookai pants, Table Tonic tribal necklace and a vintage belt from Sydney's Glebe markets (back when they were... vintage-y).
And so the next chapter begins!
And so the next chapter begins!
Happy Monday, Tonic-ettes!
