Idea # 1573 I wish I'd thought of: Magazine Seats.

My gosh I could do with a few of theses around the joint. What a genius idea!

Try Something New Tuesday: Badge Art

It's been a while since I did one of these, folks, so let's take baby steps, starting with this glue-gun, paint-tin free badge art.


Rockett St George


You'll need:


  • That jar of badges you've been hanging on to since high school.


  • 1x white frame.


  • 1x piece of white cardboard or fabric to pin the badges to.


  • Sticky tape to secure the fabric/cardboard to the backing board of the frame.

Too easy, right?

Snippets from the weekend

It started with a breakfast of champions that went a little something like this...




Followed by a bunch of tulips from a friend (I love when birthdays kick on for weeks)...



Matched with Massive Shoe envy. My four year old niece, A, has no idea how cool she is.




And ended like this... the spare room bursting at the seems with goodies for an upcoming shoot. I currently have enough cot quilts and baby blankets to keep an entire village warm. No lie.

Thanks for the lovin', Madison

I just discovered a little HouseMad loving over at Madison mag's site. Their Lifestyle Editor, LP,(the one responsible for including HouseMad in her list of favourite blogs) also happens to be one of the most divine creatures I know.

HouseMad "Inventive DIY home and gift ideas combined with delightful pictures and again, simply divine spaces. Too cute."

Head in the clouds

I'm in the middle of prepping for a kids bedroom shoot and I'm sensing clouds are where the magic is at. Kind of fitting for winter really, especially considering the torrential rain we've been getting in Sydney...











Match-it buy: You can get in on the act with this Donna Wilson Cloudy Cuddly Cushion from one of my all-time favourite lifestyle stores, Safari Living, for just $79. Waaah. I want one.

Snooping inside Keri Russell's NY home.

I always wondered where Felicity ended up. Seems she moved on to bigger and better things. Like renovating and decorating this NY brownstone of her dreams.




SPOTTED: The IKEA Ludde sheepskin sitting pretty on the floor in the pic above. And the best bit? It's only $69.95.





Love Is In The Air (again!)

My (#4) sister got engaged last night and we're all just a little giddy with excitement. Here's to lots of fun months of planning (and posts) ahead. Yippee! Congrats again, J & R.

In The Bag

The clever gang over at DOS Family which I blogged about a few months back over here, run a little What's In Your Bag Blog Tour which I love. I think it's because it makes me feel less silly about the amount of unnecessary 'stuff' I cart around on a daily basis.







Would you be game enough to show off what lives inside your handbag?

I dare you.
