500 penciles

On - Tuesday 4 May 2010

How amazing do these look? And they're pencils! Felissimo has over 500 colours to choose from AND display units so they can become works of art in themselves. Trouble is I don't think I'd ever want to use them.

The lovely girls over at chocolatecreative have added some cute little cushions to their range since I last stopped by their site. Perfect for springing into spring.

Hidden disco

On - Friday 3 July 2009

This light from Reiko Kaneko via designsponge really caught my eye this week. On the outside it's an unassuming simple wood veneer, on the inside there's a mini disco. Love it!

Patchwork Wallpaper

On - Sunday 14 June 2009

For those of you who don't like patterned wallpaper, look away now, because you're REALLY not going to like this! Ever wondered what to do with all those left over bits of paper? Well you could go a little nuts and try a wallpaper patchwork. You could always start off by blue-tacking them to the wall, just in case not everyone in the house appreciates it as much as you. But I think this idea would work really well in a kids room, I've always like the idea of using vertical stripes of different wallpaper.

Colour

On - Sunday 19 April 2009

Back in our new place only one day and we've already made a trip to the DIY store. I've been looking at colour swatches for the rooms and thinking about what to do with the newly constructed day bed... then I came across these two great shots. The first from Marie Claire Maison, I can see these gorgeous cushions really standing out in an all white room.

And secondly as Ive spent the day looking at colour swatches, I guess if you cant decide what colour to pick... why not pick them all like Scott Prendergast did!? Pic from design sponge.

Find of the week: Day bed

On - Sunday 29 March 2009

I've be rediscovering the joys of Ikea this weekend. Our place in London was full of it so I've been a bit turned off for a while. But our friends have this lovely white day bed in their place and it would be just perfect for our new sunroom. This pic is from Harmonie Interieure.

Find of the week

On - Sunday 22 March 2009

This is definitely my favourite find for this week. This gorgeous photo was taken by Aussie photographer Jason Loucas and comes via the city sage blog. Two weeks to go until we move into our new home and Ive been thinking a lot about decorating. This is a must - a china hutch painted all white.
