Burnished Bathroom

Over the long weekend I stayed at a charming holiday house in Noosa. I was quite taken with the morrocan inspired ensuite. The bronzed Perrin & Rowe taps were the perfect choice to compliment the natural stone and bone inlayed mirror.

A Fresh Shade

You may mistake this property for belonging in Europe. The Sydney villa is actually located in Palm Beach. I adore the shade of mint green chosen for the shutters. A bit more refreshing then the typical white seen in this area.

Colour Inspiration

The other night after putting James to sleep I walked into my kitchen to find the most stunning sunset occurring over the harbour. I was so taken with the colours I rushed for my camera to capture them. Now normally I am not a particularly pastel kind of girl, I tend towards stronger more masculine colours. This spellbinding sunset has me reconsidering my opinion though.

Indoor Outdoor

I am loving the new range of Schumacher indoor outdoor fabrics. The collection is called Cote d'Azure and is inspired by the natural colour palate of the French Riviera. Finally a outdoor collection to get excited about.

This months Home Beautiful features a lovely home I helped styled. One of my favourite images didn't make the cut so I thought I would show you here. Grab a copy of the February issue to see more of this fun family residence.

Welcome 2012

After a relaxing break I always feel re energized and full of new creative ideas. I came back home a few days ago to find my garden full of fresh blooms, what a nice way to start the new year. This was our first New Years eve in the house and we were shock to see the amazing Sydney fireworks right outside our window, another good omen. It feels like 2012 is shaping up to be a good year. I sincerely hope it proves fruitful for all of you.
