Bathroom inspiration




We are hoping to renovate our house in the next year or so and part of the plan is to extend our tiny bathroom. I want a freestanding shower and bath instead of the combination which we have now - I hate climbing into a shower and our bath is way too small - good for two small children but not quite big enough for me. So I am downloading some inspiration - I have always loved claw footed baths but am not really certain (my partner hates them) but maybe I might go with something more modern. I like the idea of some wallpaper in the bathroom like the photo above. Minimalism is good with some quirkiness. Pictures above are via apartmenttherapy homebug

Leadlight restoration project


One of the things on myto do list is to replace the leadlight in this window in our loungeroom. The frame is in almost new condition but the pattern and vile colours has to go. I am looking at some nice geometric art deco patterns with not too much colour - a bit of blue, yellow and pink.

Knitted and funky




Love these knitwear furnishings. Cuckooclock from http://andreawilliamson.com.uk and handknitted pouffe from http://burford.com.uk

Flavor Paper




Why do I keep finding more wallpaper that is TDF? I think I would like to decorate the walls of my house with a roll of each of my all time favourite wallpapers.

Happy Birthday




Happy Birthday to my now 6 yo daughter and about to turn 5 yo boy. They were born 1 year and 3 days apart (Geminis like me) and thus I am left with the task of creating two birthday cakes! Previously I could get away with one unisex cake but not this year. These are the results and both myself and the kids were delighted.
