A Pool

Despite growing up with a pool and having a wonderful time honing my synchronized swimming skills with my friends; (that is until I turned 16, at which time boys and the beach were far more appealing), since then however, I haven't really thought of a pool as a must have. Probably because I would have to clean it, well at least whine about it until my husband would eventually do it. (Of course, the budget has NOTHING to do with it either).

Despite this, today I'm dreaming about a swimming pool... and this is what I'm thinking... (the acreage and view as well).

Bedroom Dilemma

I have a MAJOR bedroom styling dilemma! I finally have all my soft furnishings back from various jobs for the year and have had an opportunity to do some styling at home.

This week I dressed the bedroom which I think looks perfect (minus a white linen bedhead which is arriving on Tuesday). The only problem I have is since I've put these lovely wool rugs under the bed my husband has had to retreat to the spare room complaining of asthma.

As tempting as it is to keep the room looking beautiful unfortunately the rugs have had to go (into the shed!), hence the photo... what do you think?

Splashes of Green

I recently came across this lovely rug from the Saffron range at Designer Rugs AND the below artwork on eBay. Green is such a GREAT colour to lift an otherwise flat room... and, it can be as simple as green foliage, green fruit or a couple of green accessories.

Some more green from my 'Inspiration' folder... have a lovely weekend everyone.

Maybe you could buy something green this weekend, what about this green ceramic stool from Ada and Darcy - she has a great blog as well so subscribe while you're there.


Fantasy

I have MANY house crushes... in fact, probably at least one a day... this is today's crush located in Wahroonga, Sydney....
