Sea Green & Turquoise

A little colour inspiration from Swedish textile company AnnaO

A beautiful palette combined with creative styling... DELISH!

Painted Stairs

Such a simple approach to decorating a stairwell, but I love the result!  The darker shade used on the treads creates a subtle accent while the series of whimsical bird etchings add an understated, yet punchy touch.  Quirky, pretty and totally gorgeous... ADORE it!  

What wonders lie at the top of those stairs do you think?

T is for Turquoise

...the perfect antidote for a hot and sticky summers day!

It is sweltering in Sydney today... I have the fan blowing with a bowl of ice in front of it trying to cool the house down (without much success!).  Turquoise is such a beautiful, fresh colour, full of connotations and promises of sweet sea breezes... something tells me I could handle the heat better if I were sitting by a pool surrounded by palm trees, sipping a G&T!

Shhhh...
