Tall, dark and very funky!

This pair of retro 70's era dark stained timber lamps are way too cool! The amazing vintage wallpaper is called Nippon wave and echos an aquatic/indigenous theme. Who said blue and green should never be seen? This tall 50cm pair are a real statement piece and would add an instant touch of retro cool to your home.

Adel and Evie

This striking set of white bedside drawers are complimented with colour popping  vintage lattice wallpaper inserts. Adel and Evie are a fresh and contemporary take on a 70's classic. The stunning lattice wallpaper in a mustard tone works well with all colours. These bedsides would be best suited against white and decorated with other bold colours. Don't be afraid to uses these two in a living room as occasional tables, perfect for storing magazines or throws.

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...

Prue and Trude

Prue and Trude are a stunning pair of vintage Thonet chairs. Duck egg blue and teal trim add a new age vibrancy to an old classic. Toile need not be reserved for 18th century manor homes, use it with high contrast contemporary colours to bring it into vogue. Use Prue & Trude as a compliment to a miss matched dining setting or as feature chairs in a bedroom or even as bed side tables in a guest room.
Before.

High tea for two!

Beautiful Billie

Billie’ is a beautifully upcycled 1950’s chest of drawers, and the first of my items for my ebay store Vintage Villa Interiors. My etsy store is a new direction for me, focusing on decorating and recycling vintage pieces. Upcycled furniture takes good quality, unique items and gives them a new lease of life. 'Billie' journey starts with gorgeous gender neutral Belle & Boo paper, featuring sweet detailed images of both little boys and little girls. The bold black frame is a contemporary contrast that brings ‘Billie’ into focus.

Beautiful Bedside Manner

This retro 70's styled night stand has great bones. The unique octagonal 'bun' feet are the highlight for me and have been  brought into focus with a lick of fresh blue. Silver, gold and soft blue paisley damask inserts add drama and detail. The result is old world glamour meets retro styling.

Woolloongabba Office Space
Stanley Street ,Woolloongabba Queensland


Come in and relax in this office sanctuary. This private therapy room blends vintage warmth with contemporary chic. Retro kiwi velvet  arm chairs entice you in and sit well against the geometric 'Kaufman' fabric throw cushions, covered lamp and office chairs. The timber Balinese mirror reflects light into a dark space. Clustered, eclectic images add interest  and a focal point.  A beautiful reclaimed mosaic side table is brought to life with a coat of paint and new vintage knobs. All the furniture in this space was preloved and restored.  Remember, money can't buy style and a little luxury need not cost the earth.



Recovered floor lamp casts a warm glow over the therapy area.

Luxurious velvet in Kiwi brings an old chair, back to the future!

Beautiful restored mosaic table.
