FURNITURE BY DECADE | 1940’S
Furniture in the 1940’s was really getting exciting. It was so tough to decide on which items to put here… and to leave out the Eames DCW Plywood Dining Chair, not to mention Hans J. Wegner 512 or 501 or even the ESU (Eames Storage Unit)!!! Okay you might think I’m crazy but I figured, unless I chose, there would need to be a part two for Furniture in this decade. Here I’m covering the incredible diversity of styles and design of this era. Read about Furniture in the 1920’s here.
#styledcanvaschallenge | Breakfast in Bed
Ta dah! The #styledcanvaschallenge has officially begun and I can’t wait to see all of your “breakfast in bed” scenes that you’ve styled over the internet.
In case you’re wondering what on earth I’m talking about… I’m calling all budding stylists, Instagramers, bloggers and creatives to take part in a monthly styling challenge on their blog and/or Instagram. You can have fun honing your skills! Each mid month I will announce a theme for you to style the following month. There are some rules to keep it fresh though, so make sure you pop over to this post to read about it and see what it means for you.
Mimi Jung Weavings
I’ve wanted a textile wall hanging for just about forever now. I feel like it is the one thing missing from my collection. I know that it will be a bit of an investment though and life’s little expenses pop up and you know how it is, it gets put off yet again. I’m almost considering taking it up myself. It would be such a lovely and rewarding craft to do but I do wonder if I’d be happy to hang it when I look at amazing works of art like that of Mimi Jung’s weavings. Beautiful aren’t they?
The Styled Entertainer Giveaway | Father Rabbit
It’s my final week of giveaways and boy do I have a goodie for you! I’ve partnered with the much-loved Father Rabbit for one of you to win “The Styled Entertainer” package. I chose these items specifically because this is pretty much how I serve our aperitif when we entertain at home.

Urban Jungle Bloggers | Plant Gang
It feels good to be joining in on the Urban Jungle Bloggers fun again. With everything going on with the rebranding, school holidays and family visits, I simply couldn’t squeeze another thing on to the agenda. I was this close to doing last topic, even had the best idea… but no, I couldn’t. Then I saw this month’s theme, “Plant Gang” and well, I had to because, I do have a bit of a collection happening.
Katia Carletti Ceramics
Handmade. Ceramics. Planters. These three would have to be one of the biggest homeware movements going around at the moment wouldn’t you say? We can’t get enough; well I know I certainly can’t. I find myself constantly scouring the stores or online to find something beautiful and handmade that I can dream about adding to my collection. Today I’m shining the spotlight on some lovely ceramics that I’ve been admiring on Instagram made by Adelaide artist, Katia Carletti.
The Styled Linen Giveaway | 31 Chapel Lane
For week five of my giveaways, I’m partnering with the lovely Irish linen brand, 31 Chapel Lane to give one of you lovers of quality, seven beautiful linen tea-towels to start from scratch with. That’s a lovely fresh one that you can pull out for every day of the week.

So you want to be a stylist? Or perhaps just practice at your styling skills a little? I know that this is something that I’ve really enjoy challenging myself with since I began blogging.
