Due to popular demand "Oh Deer" is now available in other colour options...













I tried red but it just looked wrong, especially with the drips...these colour options will be available in the online shop very soon.

Have a lovely day.

Mediterranean Beauty

 I seem to be drawn to rustic country beauties of late, and this one is picture perfect. I'm not sure if this one inspires my decorating or stirs up my desire to retreat to the country...probably both.

An eclectic country house by the Mediterranean Sea with interior design by Mestre Paco ....




I love all that stone...and the eclectic styling. Images from here

Have a lovely weekend.

A few days in the Hunter Valley

Last week my hubby & I were lucky enough to escape to the Hunter Valley for a few days (just the two of us...yay!!)...I have my Mum & Mum in law to thank for holding down the fort here. Can't thank you both enough for looking after the tiddly peeps!!

We try to get away, just the two of us, at least once a year for much needed time alone together. We hadn't been to the Hunter Valley for quite a few years and we fell absolutely in love with it. It's funny whenever we go away somewhere we find ourselves inspecting the realestate in the area and fantasizing about relocating. Does anyone else do this???

So here are a few highlights...







And if we ever have the opportunity to renew our vows, this is where we will do it...





Roberts restaurant is gorgeous, a little cottage that is so cozy and rustic on a beautiful property complete with vineyard and a chapel. And just up the road is Peppers Convent, I think we'll stay there next time...we'll have to start saving now though :) My favourite spot in Pokolbin I think!! Closely followed by Scarborough's vineyard (and their Chardonnay) lol.

 Have a Lovely day!!

Spanish home of my dreams

When I came across this beautiful home on the Spanish island of Formentera I had to share it. I would say it tops my list and is the most breathtaking home I have seen in some time. So totally secluded, tranquil and rustic. I hope you enjoy....











Absolutely divine huh...I think the pictures speak for themselves...no need to go on really.

Have a lovely day!

New Artwork - Watercolour Bokeh

I have finished a new artwork that I called "Watercolour Bokeh". I love the bokeh photography bluring effect used on lights and water, it inspired me to create my own version of bokeh using watercolour dots.....




I went a bit nuts with the colour options, but every colour combo I did just looked so good I couldn't choose between them....so I have included them all in my online shop and catalog.











And...if you need more colour variety I am adding this artwork to my custom colour range. Which means you can choose your own colour scheme!!!

Would love to know what you think.

Have a lovely day,
