Here are my new pillowslips – something a little more striking and warm for the winter months. A bit of a habit of mine to buy new ones when I feel like refreshing my favourite place without spending hundreds of dollars on the entire bedlinen set. The colouring reminds me of this pic of a […]

 A special little find from art markets in Amsterdam  George Seurat’s  “Entree du port de Honfleur” and an original oil painting by Will Chown that I found down in Ballingup during my “Wide Open Road” trip with my friend Jules, all live together on top of the bureau in my bedroom to provide a sea view.

Here is my new-old table lamp. In the spirit of make-do-&-mend I re-fashioned a solid, carved wood lamp base with ancient wiring I found in a verge clean-up into the perfect lightsource for my dining room.

Well, my friends, thought you might like to take a little test to see if you are left  or right brained or pretty much both.

Had to share this Leunig cartoon with you… Mum cut it out of the SMH and posted it to me (as she is technologically challenged). We both thought it was great. Just a little giggle for a Friday, it’s the end of the work week after all. BTW, did you notice the pattern in the thumbnail pic […]
