Clearing out clutter, junk, pre-loved but no longer used items, furniture, paperwork, etc. can be a task that we put off until later- well now is that later! Don’t underestimate the psychological benefits to cleaning out spaces like those below, especially in a difficult time such as this when we are being forced to spend … Continue reading De-Cluttering Your Home & Mind
The brief for the Ladbury Project was to make the home more appealing for sale, this was done via Renovating and Decorating/Styling using items the owners already had as well as some new pieces. The below is a list of the changes that were made from when the owners purchased the property a few years … Continue reading Ladbury Project
I have always loved escaping down the south coast of New South Wales whenever things get too hectic for me in Sydney, even if it can only be for the day. The drive down is stunning with green rolling hills on one side and the ocean and beaches on the other, and the towns are filled … Continue reading Berry NSW
If you've ever decided to paint your home or a piece of furniture I'm sure you've noticed just how many shades of the same colour are available. Apparently, there are more shades of white that exist than all other colours combined! I know how stressful this can be for clients to get it right, and … Continue reading How To Select The Right Paint Colour
Yesterday was such amazing weather for a road trip with my mum. We drove up to the Central Coast for a homewares store that we've been following on Instagram for a while called 'Drift Design'. It was well worth the trip! I absolutely loved every item in the store and could have gone home with … Continue reading Road Trip to the Central Coast
For some unknown reason I am in love with baskets! I don't know if any of you feel that same need to buy them, find a use for them or take photos of them (if you have no more space to fit them lol). I think what I love so much are the textures, variety of … Continue reading Baskets
I absolutely love Children's Rooms! Whose with me? From sweet little nurseries to bedrooms and playrooms, I find there's just so much more room for colour and fun than in any other space within the home (at least for many, who aren't as daring as adding slides to their staircases and so on). For a child, … Continue reading Children’s Rooms
We've been really lucky with our weather so far here in Sydney. Today was another warm and gloriously sunny day (not a cloud in sight!), which is extremely strange for this time of year. The nights however, have slowly begun to get icy cold and I can definitely feel that winter is just around the corner (well … Continue reading Winter Warmth
I absolutely love colour, I think even the smallest amount in a space can brighten and freshen it up without having to take over. So many people I come across seem scared to use it because it might date, because neutral colours are easier to match with, for easier re-sale if they ever move in the future, … Continue reading Colour
I love to travel to new and exciting places. Sometimes I've found though, that the best of adventures don't always happen after boarding a plane, train or ship for days or hours, but can be right near your back yard- they just need to be stumbled upon. Here are some amazing landscapes and views from my … Continue reading Landscapes and Views
I love watching the sun set on the horizon. Each time its so amazingly different, I can't help but stare and be in awe of every one that I see. Here's a collection of some that I've been able to capture so far. There are sunsets from home, above the clouds, from a cliff in Fiji, near my … Continue reading Sunset
I find so much inspiration in the smells, colours, shapes, and textures of flowers (as well as even leaves) I find along my travels, as well as from those I'm lucky enough to receive as gifts. They can symbolise love, compassion, sorrow and joy, and can brighten up even the dreariest of days. I hope the photos … Continue reading Flora
This bedroom revamp was of an older home that had recently been purchased. The dark pink feature wall was in a highly textured paint that had to be sanded back, and the plaster needed patching as it did for the remaining walls of the room. There was existing built in cabinetry to the left hand … Continue reading Bedroom Revamp
On our way home from our adventures in London and Greece, my best friend and I had a small stay in Dubai. Here, we discovered the best mall in the world (at least so far), the breathtaking views from the Burj Kalifa, and the possibilites of money being no object! I hope you find these photos … Continue reading Dubai, UAE
In June this year my best friend and I were finally able to fulfill our dream of a Greek Island adventure. We were so lucky to discover Athens, Mykonos, Santorini and Ios, and we dream of one day venturing back to these amazing Mediterranean oasis'. I absolutely love the simple, fresh white render of the buildings of Santorini and their … Continue reading The Greek Islands, Greece
In June 2013 I was lucky enough to spend some time in the beautiful city of London. Although not long enough, I was still able to gain so much inspiration and leave the city wanting more. Hopefully one day I will go back and find the flea markets, design stores, amazing architecture and other treasures that I had to … Continue reading London, UK
After never boarding a plane until 2007, I was suddenly somewhere between my 10th and 20th flight only 6 months later, & on my way to the beautiful islands of tropical Fiji. I was here for a wedding, but what a perfect excuse to stay away from the world of hustle and bustle for as long … Continue reading 2008- Tropical Adventures
In 2007 I boarded a plane for the first time, and flew to the other side of the world to Europe, Malta & America with my mum. I love looking back at photos of all our adventures and continuously find inspiration in them, but they cannot do justice to the sounds, smells, touch and sites … Continue reading 2007- Journey through a new world
