Coastal














Here are a selection of images of several coastal properties for sale on the Mornington and Bellarine Pennisula's - thought these captured the Victorian coastal feel, great gardens and wonderful spots lazing by the pool. All we need is the weather to improve and be consistant.

Wallpapered Ceilings







I was recently watching a Canadian TV show and they wallpapered the ceiling and it looked amazing. Here are a couple of examples....


  • bright striped ceilings in the nursery add a pop of colour

  • stricking floral wallpaper on walls and ceiling to create a WOW dining room in contrast to the soft sheers over the large windows

  • traditional classic toile used on the walls and ceiling in the attic style bedroom

  • a dramatic ceiling in a dressing room.

I have to give this a go at some point, just need the right client and to butter up my wallpaper hanger....

Travers Trims







Travers have released a selection of Passementerie called Artisanal which has a fresh, distinctive look featuring ombré effects, woven textures and ikat weaves in wide braids, perfect for cushions and curtain detailing and even better, they are well priced. I love the ikat design...very now!

Beautiful Blooms

The weather has improved this week and the rose's in my front garden are loving it...the sunshine that is. Here are a couple of pic's I snapped when heading to the car this mornings.


I live this climbing rose, it's all across the front fence and has climbed into the cumquat tree as well.






I love roses and will have to pick a bunch to put inside tonight when I get home.

Lastest Window Display





Couple of quick pict's of the latest Window Display. Working with the classic, no fail Blue & White scheme, that works prefectly in our Bayside location. The fabrics are from Unique Textiles latest collection called Cermicia - taking its inspiration from classic china patterns, with fabric names like Meissen and Ceramica stripe.

Awash with colour








Driving past "The Works" this morning and had to stop and get some photo's of their latest window displays - awash with colour - from cushions, bedding, glassware and accessories, the windows are a feast for the sensors. Please excuse my reflective photos.
