Join us for a guided tour with a difference! Discover the unexpected and intriguing stories behind the bags on display in our featured exhibition Carried Away: Bags Unpacked.

The bags themselves are a visual feast, but we've dug deeper and fallen down rabbit-holes to bring you the bigger picture of the life and times of these popular accessories. We guarantee that the De-tour stories start with bags, but who knows where we may end up?

De-tours are thirsty work and so they will conclude with a Devonshire tea at our 1929 cafe.

Saturday and Sunday afternoons, 10 - 11 and 17 - 18 August. Bookings essential.

We're finally moving forward with a replacement Beach Haven Wharf :)
Yesterday the Kaipatiki Local Board approved the attached design and also approved proceeding to consenting and construction of the new recreational wharf.
Physical works is expected to begin before the end of 2019 and be completed by the end of March 2020.

The project will rebuild the damaged parts of the wharf and piles, strengthening and upgrading it to today's safety standards, while keeping the heritage style of the wharf and providing a new floating pontoon platform for fishing and diving.

Thankyou to the project manager Peter Bilton for navigating the complexities of this heritage coastal project, and to the Beach Haven Placemaking Group and Larking Boat Steering Group members for their substantial input into the new design.

Join me for a free fun 1 hour class this Sunday 4th August 10 - 11am.

Learn about doTERRA essential oils and how they can naturally support your physical, emotional, spiritual and environmental well being.

It's a sad fact that we now live in a toxin filled environment.

We can't control the toxins and chemicals we are exposed to when we are out and about, but we can control what we are exposed to inside our house.

From the products we use to clean our house to the beauty products we put on our skin. Many of these can have nasty chemicals hiding in them that over time, can build up in your body and have negative side effects on your health.

I want to show you how to use essential oils to replace all these with natural alternatives!

In this class you get to smell the oils, learn about the oils and learn how to use them safely and effectively and have the opportunity to purchase oils to start on your own journey into a more natural toxin-free life.


And then sample some yummy essential oil infused treats!



And then stay on for a Diffuser Bracelet Make and Take class from

11 - 12pm.



Cost for this is $30 and you will make your own personal diffuser bracelet using lava stones and crystal beads and also your own essential oil blend to use on your bracelet.

PM, text or phone me on 021 474379 to reserve your seat.


I look forward to seeing you there!
