Tropic Chic’

These retro bedsides in their original smoke and ash coloured veneer needed very little to bring them into focus. I loved their colour and they so beautifully complimented the vintage bamboo wallpaper they looked as though they were made for one another. The vibrant green bamboo freshens the pallet and adds interest. The painted gold legs and clear glass pulls add a glamorous twist moving this retro pair from retro drab to retro fab tropical chic! I LOVE these and have had to wrestle them from my sisters clutches! Such a statement piece and perfect for our gorgeous sunshine state!

Camille's Old English Roses

I saw stunning Camille amongst a collection of Op shop clutter, she immediately caught my eye with her lovely lines and art deco mouldings - she had the hallmarks of 1950's French glamour. A coat of 'evening' black instantly transformed Camille from a wallflower piece to the main event. Of course I have added a vintage wallpaper insert using the most luxurious English floral on coal black and distressed her just a little to show her charm. The beautiful wallpaper was very difficult to find and Camille had a long wait while I sourced just the right accent finish. The rarer floral on black is more seductive than the traditional floral ranges commonly on white or pastel and adds a contemporary allure to an old classic. An elegant glass dome pull set on brass adds a touch of vintage parlour chic. Camille is a glamours old piece who like all true women is ageing with grace and style.

Retro Doily Revival

Lovely Lola is a classic pedestal table that's gone through a retro revival. The delicate lace Doily painted overlay creates an eye catching statement piece to any kitchen or dining room. Harking back to the day's when mum would run to the linen press and throw over a table cloth before the guests arrived, Lola is ever ready! Lola is function and beauty combined, painted in simple white it is sure to suit any room or any occasion.

Meet Lola.

A lace doily over lay creates delicate pattern and doubles as the easiest clean table cloth ever!

Ready for any occasion...

Lola love, I loved this look so much I did it to my pedestal kitchen table too!

My favourite room, my Kitchen!


This is my favourite room in the house and most definitely the heart of the home, I have far to many little treasures in here and can't seem to stop adding to them. I love the flexibility of the all white kitchen, it allows for my schizophrenic decorating style and constant change. I especially love the pressed metal splash back that adds subtle texture and pattern.

I love bold & bright splashes of colour against crisp white.

My reclaimed kitchen table and mismatches chairs create a sense of fun along side my mother in laws antique high chair in it's original colour.

Retro Inspired Christopher Vine playful melamine plates add splashes of  colour.

I couldn't resist these Wedgwood tea canisters, they were too perfect!

Cracker canisters from England found at a garage sale.
