I’m feeling rather excited by it all and I figured that you’d like to join my joy and see a selection of the photos from the spread. Am I right?

New Zealand Christmas Gift Guide #1
You may recall that I was planning a New Zealand month in December where each and every post in that month would be dedicated to the wonderful talent we have here in New Zealand. Well, unfortunately I’ve been a bit under the weather for a few weeks and have had to do the bare minimum so I simply wouldn’t have been able go out and put the energy into this project as I would like to. New Zealand Month is on hold until early next year however I thought I’d put together a little Christmas gift guide of things I love that are made by clever Kiwis.
Home Time with Gorman
Hi everyone, it’s so good to be back after a few days off. While I was having a little break I get the email about Gorman’s new Home Time homeware range. Once I took a look at it, I wanted to write a post about it immediately as I’ve been waiting for this since writing about the Gorman homeware collaboration with Ellie Malin here.
Macrame Hanger Kit
The wannabe DIY’er in me has been eyeing off this Mima + Moo Macramé Kit for over a year until I finally bought it last month in my quest to bring more plants into our home. It was so simple to make with everything needed except the pot and plant and included clear instructions; perfect for someone like me that usually fails miserably with these kinds of things.
The Humble Basket
Ah beautiful, beautiful baskets, all of the different shapes, colours, textures and ethnicity are a perfect way to add interesting touches to a home. The uses are endless, from the practical to purely decorative. Here’s a selection of some that have caught my eye of late:
Thoughts on a Style Safari
Last Friday I was lucky enough to attend Home Magazine’s Style Safari, led by the warm and very charming editor of Home Magazine, Jeremy Hansen. If you didn’t catch my interview with Jeremy about the day, you can read it here.
Ceramic Wall Planters by Light + Ladder
I’ve always been a fan of plants inside the home, so I’m really enjoying seeing how this current and continuing indoor plant trend is nurturing the creation of some seriously interesting planter and display designs.
Monday News, starting in the bedroom…
Hi friends! I have lots of news that I want to share with you so I’m dedicating an entire post to it today. I thought for the post image I’d take photo of a larger view of our bedroom so that you can see what I’ve done with the mirrors on the wall. What do you think? Just for the fun, I took a close up of my muddy Supergas, a reminder that we’ve just come out of winter and many a wet playground visits!
