for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness,
and for poise walk with the knowledge that you are never alone'

Escape To Provence

 Escape to St Remy en Provence


Remodeled by Parisian interior designer Joelle PlĂ©ot, this one-story summer house is located in St Remy en Provence, Southern France. I love the touches of the raspberry and lime - it adds an unexpected pop of colour to this rustic cottage.  The house plan is organized so that every room communicates with the outside... wine and cheese anyone?

Sunday Garden Party

Saturday, May 19, 2012 0 comments




 





It's Sunday and that makes it the perfect day of the week to enjoy the garden and some fresh air! Make the most of blue skies and sunshine and set up lunch or afternoon tea on the lawn. Gather friends and family for a lazy, indulgent alfresco lunch. Happy Sunday!

Sweet Romance

Friday, May 18, 2012 0 comments











Today I am loving these sweet romantic touches
with a splash of red:-

the pretty heart scatter cushion
the homemade curtains
the hand painted vintage pieces
the window seat
the wrought iron beds and
the claw foot bath.

In Full Bloom

Thursday, May 17, 2012 0 comments









'Life is beautiful'

Flowers are the pinnacle of feel good gifts.
The never fail to bring a smile to my face and joy to my soul.
A bunch of flowers can say a thousand words.
They can say - love, happiness, romance, regret
friendship, sorrow, sympathy and congratulations.

Have a lovely day!

Shabby Chic For Kids

Wednesday, May 16, 2012 0 comments









These bedrooms are just adorable in pink, white and beige. This shabby chic style for kids would work equally well in a big period home and  a cute, little white painted weatherboard cottage. The mix and match of the toile, florals and paisley is fresh and creative. I love the old world charm and the reference back to yesteryear.

I love the colours that Autumn brings:-
glowing oranges, rich russet reds
golden browns, pumpkin and deep terracotta.
It's such a vibrant colourful time of year.

Enjoy!
