If your interior style is : Natural

People are increasingly discovering the benefits of sustainable living and seeing the effects of our actions on the environment. If you think your style is 'Natural' you probably love wooden furniture and accessories, linen, wool and silk are also within reach. These materials can sometimes cost a little extra but it is worth it in the long run.

Take Me to a Special Place - Dreaming of Vietnam Interiors

I dream of travelling to special places where there's endless relaxation and pampering and green everywhere....lots of green!

I have a feeling Vietnam might be that Place!

If this is an office for a landscape architect firm then i'm excited to see more, see more over at Dezeen

What about this Spa center with stunning hanging gardens

Then if there's no way to go but up who wouldn't want this gorgeous plant in the middle of their living area?

And if you can't go to Vietnam then maybe do as I did and go to your closest budget plant place and buy some baby tears :)

Be In The Know....Top Trend Alert for 2016

Welcome to the first Trend alert for 2016,
 I'll be doing one each month of the year to bring you in on the trends that are happening right NOW.
Today's trend is the Artisan or handmade trend. They are all over instagram and pinterest, people coming up with amazing crafts and selling them at places like Etsy . If had the time I would definitely be making all sorts of things right now myself...maybe selling them and then using the money to buy my favourite things on Etsy!!

Today I'll share a few of my favourite handmade items to buy right now!


This is my own little purchase from a shop called Cheese Before Bedtime


I've just discovered this one too

This Handmade Ceramic Planter is from a shop called Kabinshop

The Jungle Tiger Cushion Cover is So Right Now! Made by Esther Sandler

And it might be summer here in Australia but it will soon get cooler and this Handwoven Blanket will be perfect, from Texturable Decor

And the best bit about buying handmade is that you are most likely supporting a small business who work long and hard to bring you something amazing that isn't mass produced!!
