I am partial to a breakfast nook and this one from I am partial to a breakfast nook and this one from @mainhouseinteriors is just perfect.  I love the Roman blinds, gorgeous table, bench seating and styling.  What a fabulous place to gather for a meal or while away some time sitting in the sun.

One of my favourite designers and builders - Alex One of my favourite designers and builders - Alex Stritt. Project @strittdesignandconstruction on Sydney's North Shore. 

I love the inspiration drawn from the East Coast of the US for this house with classic shingles in the roof gables.  All the details are just perfect; double hung windows with generous architraves, classic Hamptons style garage, pale grey weatherboards and lots of fresh white trim.  The driveway is perfect and the warm colours in the hard landscaping soften the grey and white palette.

I have a post on my blog on why I love a crisp white trim - you can read it if you click through from my bio.

There is a different bath for every style and prac There is a different bath for every style and practicality.  Personally I love a freestanding bath, but one with a little elegance for a classic style.  Or you may prefer a bath built into a hob, which is very practical if you have children. 

I have a blog post dedicated to helping you find the right look for your bathroom.  You can click through from my bio where you will find the link.

Which bath is your favourite?

A beautiful delicate hue, Celadon green is most de A beautiful delicate hue, Celadon green is most definitely based on the colour, Jade but in its lighter form, it becomes almost transparent.  With just the right amount of grey, Celadon is a winner in the decorating stakes as it is gentle, yet beautiful, just like the original pottery that graces museums around the world.

When you partner it with natural terracotta tones you have an extended related colour palette.  This combination creates a subtle earthy colour palette that is warm and welcoming, but with the right amount of white and grey to balance the richness.

You can read more about Celadon Green over on my blog.  Click through from my bio.

Do you love this colour combination?

Nestled among the rolling vineyards of the Shoalha Nestled among the rolling vineyards of the Shoalhaven area on the NSW South Coast, former Block contestants Rachel and Ryan Carr have transformed a tired rural property into a luxurious holiday retreat.

I love the mix of colours throughout the house.  If you are tired of all white painted interiors then you will love the addition of rich colour in this home.  It has a moody sophistication through rich neutrals and some striking colours that bring personality to the home.

The breakfast nook is one of Rachel and Ryan's favourite areas.  A great spot to both start and end the day. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on the house.

Transistional style kitchen from @KWDANDCO with a Transistional style kitchen from @KWDANDCO with a combination of black, timber and white.  The gorgeous black windows in this home give a nod to modern farmhouse style too.  I love the way that this designer has taken the zellige tiles to the ceiling.  Cutting them off at any point would have spoilt the look. 

What a gorgeous space - do you love this too?

Are you a minimalist or a maximalist? Do you pref Are you a minimalist or a maximalist?

Do you prefer a clutter-free home where everything has its place, neatly tucked away? Or do you love to have your treasures on display, filling your space with personality and stories?

Do you surround yourself with greenery, or is one striking statement plant more your style?

Perhaps you’ve collected special pieces from your travels and proudly display them, creating a home that tells the story of your life. Or maybe you prefer to keep those items packed away, holding the memories close but keeping your space serene.

Or are you a true minimalist—someone who finds peace in simplicity and chooses not to keep these objects at all? 

I would love to hear which one you are.

There are so many reasons that I love Eucalyptus. There are so many reasons that I love Eucalyptus.  It looks stunning on its own - a generous amount in a large container - or as an accent greenery with other flowers.  It is fresh and a reminder of the Australian Bush.

Best of all, it is fabulous inspiration for a natural, earthy colour palette.

Colorbond Windspray is a classic mid tone colour f Colorbond Windspray is a classic mid tone colour for exterior projects.  With an undertone of blue/green, it's perfect to use with white, cool blue and grey tones.

I avoid using Windspray with warm taupes and yellow tones.  It is a good option for roofing on heritage homes.

I have the full rundown on how to use this classic grey for your next exterior build or renovation over on my blog - click the link in my bio.
