Paint your own Koru Heartland - BYO Valentines Paint Party

Silke from Heart for Art

Our Paint Parties are a super fun and creative way to celebrate and try something new, and we've created a special Valentines painting for you. Singles, come on your own and paint one koru while you celebrate with other singles. Or, if you're all loved up, bring your date and paint one each to hang together to form your heart. Awww sweet.

We’ll provide all the arty materials you’ll need and show you, step by step, how to create your painting. Easy to follow. Heaps of fun. No experience needed.

FEATURED PAINTING: Koru Heartland
This easy to paint abstract of our landscape celebrates our love of New Zealand and how full our hearts are as a nation. We love Aotearoa and everyone in it.
As a valentine's special treat, we created this one so it can be hung next to another one (painted as a mirror image) so together they create a heart. Pretty cool huh.

Come paint your heart with us this Valentine's Day.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Share in the comments below if this has ever happened to you.

What flowers are blooming in your garden?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours,

In our September mag, Amy Roberts from Villaleigh Plants has a list of her favourite blooms for long display. "If you want a long season, look beyond the flowers," is her advice. Here are her picks: Geranium phaeum 'Mourning Widow', Salvia leucantha, Hylotelephium 'Autumn Joy' (pictured), Eryngium pandanifolium and Alchemilla mollis.

Have you got them in your garden? In fact, we'd love to see what you've got in bloom now. Post a photo and share the joy!
