R&R

Sorry for my lack of posts of late. We had a little scare this week when the baby looked like it was going to make an early entrance. This landed me in hospital for a few days but the fantastic staff at the Mater managed to convince the bub to stay inside!

Anyway this means I have to try and relax and get myself into a zen state. I need a tranquil corner of the garden like this to aid the process.

Paddington Kitchen

My clients kitchen.

I have received lots of email requests in the last week inquiring about the handles used in my client Sarah's lovely kitchen. The images are featured in this months Home Beautiful.

They were sourced from Mother of Pearl and Sons
They have stores in Sydney and Melbourne and will ship anywhere in Australia.
The handle is called the "B and M classic cupboard pull"

Sarah replaced the handles on her old kitchen before the renovation, knowing that she would use them again once we revamped the entire space. This is a great tip for others looking to dress up a tired kitchen. Hardware can make such a difference!

Baby of Mine

In just a few months I will have another little addition to my growing family. I am now six and half months along, my feet have swollen so much they bear an uncanny resemblance to big foot! This weekend is earmarked for cleaning out the spare room. Then the fun begins, creating the nursery.

I designed this bedroom fit for a princess. I must admit it is one of my favourite children's spaces. The room is just as sweet as the little girl Anna who inhabits the space.

I recently styled the above image for Home Beautiful Magazine. The April addition, out now showcases the entire house. Grab a copy to see more of this pretty home.

Real or Faux

As a general rule I don't really go for faux products, however the new range of wallpapers from Cole & Son have me changing my tune. I am particularly taken with the first paper which simulates antique mirror.

What do you think, to faux or not to faux?
