Love your home

Spent the weekend re-organising the house, have spent far too many weekends working and have come to the conclusion that I need to take some time out to rattle around this old pad and enjoy it. As mentioned last week I grabbed one of our latest products to arrive in the store our super sexy moose light took him home and thanks to a fab team of builders (who built me this fireplace in record speed highly impatient person that I am) – the moose now presides regally over the garden. At night he is even more impressive!Garden moose

I came across the home of Sara Story (US designer) not so long ago and totally feel in love with her way of decorating.  She totally personifies my way of designing whereby its all about personal style.  The key being to make your space your own  – and of course it should be  comfy but it should also be filled with stuff you are passionate about. Below are two images of Sara’s home illustrating just how powerful a piece of art can be – turning something ordinaire into something extradinaire. Love it!

New Collection

I have been keeping myself busy this last few difficult weeks with concentrating on what in my (humble) opinion has to be one of our best Autumn/Winter collections ever! Its eclectic, funny and heart warming. I have come to realise more than ever that I only want pieces in my house that make my smile  and so without further ado here is a sneak peak of some of the pieces that will be hitting the store in the next few weeks!

This fine looking chap came in this morning and doubles as a light. You can also install him outside as well as in – so I have nabbed one  for myself (one of the advantages of owning a store) and on my outside wall he is going this weekend!

Art that makes me smile is what is going to be adorning the store walls this Autumn. These guys are due in in a couple of weeks and also going into our new concession at The Shop At Bluebird, opening mid September So this is very much a sneak peak. I also wanted to nabb for home – but realised I hadn’t ordered quite enough – damm!
