Little Touches of Loveliness

I had the absolute pleasure of working on this beautiful home in Martinborough a couple of weeks ago. It involved a refresh in some of the spaces, some art recommendations and hanging and a little bit of fluffing around making sure all the areas looked tickety boo. And of course some new cushions. Who doesn’t […]

Love at First Sight

This is what the gorgeous @_textilia_ fabric is to me. The playful pattern, the beautiful colour graduation and the inky blue. Devine. The perfect choice for an old Don sofa that was begging to be recovered along with a couple of chairs to boot. For the chairs we chose a @warwickfabricsnz blue that struck a chord with the sofa, […]

A Tray of Treasures

There is so much to love about this wee snippet of happiness. A tray of treasures collected over time adding warmth and love. A gorgeous plant that softens the hard surfaces. Playful patterns all working together adding contrast and charm. The end result is a simple tray that tells you that this home is filled […]

A Slice of Happiness

Working with the old and new is what I love to do. Looking at spaces with fresh eyes and finding places for treasures that had been long forgotten by their owners. In this case we thought about finding a new piece of furniture to fit in this space but instead we did a quick mix […]

Textural Colourful Goodness at its Finest

As many of you probably know good things take time. And it is worth remembering that the final outcome is most definitely worth the wait. Case in point is this little slice of heaven at a recent restyle. The gorgeous textural lamp and beautiful artwork by @selenakitchen create a little focal point in what was a rather […]

A Spot in the Sun

Who doesn’t love an inviting window seat that allows you to kick back and enjoy the surrounds from? This bedroom window seat needed to fulfil several roles. We needed it to be practical yet inviting. It needed to be comfortable enough to double up as a sleepover bed. The fabric needed to be hardwearing and […]

A Collection of Treasures

What makes a coffee table happy? Well for me it is a great rug to sit on, some of my favourite books, fresh flowers and of course a tray to place my collection of treasures on. This pic at a client’s home summarises it nicely. It makes the space feel lived in yet welcoming. The […]

A Sense of Character and Charm

I feel lucky in my job to work with the most amazing clients who trust in what I do. In this case we were transforming a space that had sat unused to a place that felt welcoming and homely. A home that could be popped onto the short term rental market ideally. The home had […]

Love at First Sight

Here we go again. Love at first sight. A gorgeous little nook adding interest to a long yet now very inviting hallway. It was hard to look past the textural goodness of this @_textilia_ fabric for the squab that we created. The richness of the fabric plays out in not only its texture but the truly divine […]

Living Room Spruce Up

Are you in need of a living space spruce up? Sometimes all it takes to refresh your space is a sprinkle of new cushions. Add in some colours that you love, a few different patterns and textures for interest and your living room will be thankful. And quite possibly yourself. And let’s face it, who […]
