Beautiful Bison

You just can't NOT buy something when you visit a beautiful BISON store. The ceramics have such delicious muted colours, they're handcrafted, organic and solid. I've been watching Brian Tunks's (founder) business grow for many years, I'm soooo proud of his success. You can now purchase online which is even better!

I think my favourite product from the BISON range would be the milk bottles (shown in the photo above) - his signature. I bought three for my mum's birthday back in March but still can't bring myself to give them to her... bad daughter!

What's your favourite?

Hello and welcome....

I've been holding off doing a blog because I was too terrified about what to say... I mean seriously; I have NO followers (until I bribe my husband and some friends) so what does it really matter.

My blog will basically be about 'house porn'... husbands and boyfriends will hate me; I'll just give their wives, girlfriends, mothers, aunties, grandmas and friends ideas for spending money (I know my husband hates it already!).


I run an interior design business in Sydney and love everything about it. So welcome; and I hope you enjoy the journey. My first image is of some lovely curtains that are my current fantasy. Thank you to American Interior Designer: John Salandino.

It's the depth of winter in Sydney, Australia (yeah, I know, hardly winter to some of you), and I'm desperately trying to convince my husband of the worthiness of curtains, any ideas to help my argument? Nonetheless; I'm working on it.

I hope you've had a great weekend.

PS... I did buy a new office chair from Officeworks today to inspire my new career in blogging (it's not very sexy for an interior designer, I know) and a bottle of red wine for 'dutch courage' of course...
