It's All in The Details!

I love to see collections of beautiful things displayed throughout the home. These pieces can add so much interest to a room and they don't have to take a huge amount of space. These images are from Tine K Home and Chenille Home. Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Wall of Books...

I just love bookshelves behind lounges like these images. Its such a gorgeous and interesting backdrop - like a big wall of art that can be ever changing. The top image is Oprah's private library. The second image I had saved from I Suwannee blog - its just gorgeous.

Wishing all a happy and restful weekend! It's the end of school holidays here in Queensland and I must say I am looking forward to some quiet time next week - not that I don't love doing my shopping with three boys. Love this image via Donna Hay's website - the styling in all her cookbooks are just so gorgeous.

How exciting it is for me to see white rooms with green as an accent colour. It is such a fresh look that always attracts me. These are just a collection of some of my favourite images. I especially love the top one which was recently featured on Desire to Inspire blog showing the impact of adding green plants back into our interiors.

Comfort of Home...

A week away camping was fun, relaxing and renewing (a complete escape from everyday life), however, it's always great to come home to a bit of comfort. These gorgeous images from NZ House and Garden got me excited about making a few Spring changes around my house...so good to be home.


What a stunning floral arrangement, so simple and fresh.


I need a cooker like this one (but then I would feel like I had to use it).


Love the gorgeous windows in the background.


Just love everything about this bathroom - the blind is particularly gorgeous.

Gone Camping...

Well we are off first thing tomorrow morning for 9 days of camping with family and friends - the kids are beside themselves with excitement while we are so frazzled from the packing and organising that we may have to sleep for a day or two to recover. I'm sure it will be great. Will leave you with this gorgeous camp set up by Cath Kidston and see you all when we get back. Tracey x

The Ultimate Workroom...

While browsing some of my favourite blogs this morning, I came across a new blog called Le Petit Cabinet De Curiosites via Katie Did blog. These photos were taken by Melanie in Prelle's showroom - one of the oldest fabric factories in France (started in 1752).

I would so love to be able to look through these old bolts of fabric so stunningly displayed in this timber cabinet.
How stunning are these fabrics and so beautifully displayed. I would love to recreate a showroom to look like this. Now which of these gorgeous fabrics should we reupholster those Louis chairs in?
