Winter is here again!


We might not all have a snow-capped mountain view from our living rooms, but we can still create a warm and cosy space to spend our Winter days and nights.

Fireplaces like this one are suitable for outdoor rooms image restorationhardware.com find a similar firebowl at Australian supplier gstore.com.au
Cushions can create the mood your looking for. Knits, sequins or velvet texture in brights or neutrals.  Start your search at one of the many online home ware stores or at aurahome.com.au where this neutral grey palette is given some spark with a tad of yellow.


Rugs can bring warmth and interest to a room and a welcome place to laze, walk upon and are much warmer under foot.  They come in so many designs it can be hard to choose.  Choose a rug that will suit the use of the space, fall within your budget and are practical for cleaning (ie. a white rug is not suitable in a children's play room!)  They can be stored in Summer when it's too hot. (QLD readers!) I have many more rugs and cushions pinned on my Pinterest page so stop by and take a look.
I love this rug currently available at designerrugs
