Feels like Summer!

Well here in Brisbane we are having a heat wave...in the middle of winter!!! So glad I'm heading to New Zealand next week to experience what winter is supposed to be! Since we are enjoying unseasonably warm weather I thought I would post this gorgeous outdoor area by Martyn Lawrence-Bullard...what fabulous blue fabrics! Happy weekend all.

Something Simple!

Loving the simplicity of these calming spaces by Penny Morrison!

Not too fussy...the gorgeous freestanding bath is the focal point!


Love the waterfeature through the large window...

I'm a sucker for raked ceilings and the gorgeous glimpse of the outdoor space looks so relaxing in this bedroom...


beatiful coral wall art to add colour to this beautiful neutral room...

relaxing outdoor space...


very pretty! Hope you are all having a good week - we have been busy catching up with suppliers, clients and shopping for new pieces which is always fun! Tracey xx

Relaxing Bathroom!

While I have been renovating for most of this year, the bathrooms are still not done. I am so looking forward to having a gorgeous deep bath like this one when we finally get around to doing them! This is something I am really missing over the Winter months! Love the green chair too! Happy new week!
