Planning for Spring it's just around the corner!

It's a great time to start thinking about freshening up your home with Spring just a few days away.

Open shelving is a great way to store and display your favourite things! image vi.sualize

It might be just giving your rooms a good once over dusting and rearranging shelves, or treating yourself to something new and bright.

Brisbane's Thea & Sami have great bright hand printed fabrics and these gorgeous cushions would brighten any room!

It's also a good time to paint before the summer wet weather sets in.

I've recommended Dulux design rust paint to a client recently.  This paint is suitable for interior and exterior use.  It's applied in two parts firstly the base coat and then the rust solution by brush only.

For more information go on Design Rust paint go to Dulux

The paint would give a similar finish to this gate from Lump

Fabric Addiction!

I have admitted to my fabric addicition in my earlier blogs, and the only way I can curb it is to not even enter a fabric store which are few and far between; but now with so many great stores online I don't know how I'll be able to control myself!  I thought I'd share a few of my faves with you.  Firstly a fabulous artist and blog Thea and Sami.  All of the fabrics are hand printed!  and have such striking prints and they are based in Brisbane.

Check out all of the wonderful fabric artworks at...
