We are always looking for things to inspire us, especially when it comes to our homes. Putting things together though can be quite daunting. It’s sometimes hard to picture how something new will fit into our home or convey the feeling we want. We look at magazines for inspiration, ideas can be triggered by places, holidays, an occasion – the list goes on.
We are certainly not experts but hope that by sharing our ideas and musings that this can inspire you and give you a springboard for your own ideas and vision.
The USA's upscale home & lifestyle magazine VERANDA has announced its 2024 Colour of the Year - Electric Amber
We find this super exciting as amber is so often found in vintage glassware. The colour is very alive - dark versions of yellow, red and orange and something about the way light reflects through the glass.... Perfect for any season!
Romance is alive & well...
THE LOVEBIRDS
This stunning HEREND of Hungary porcelain figurine of lovebirds was purchased by a client for her elderly in-laws as a gift. When she saw this small figurine on our shelves she thought of them and how age had brought them closer together and more protective of each other. These birds symbolised their enduring and changing love.
