Welcome to my Styled Canvas
Welcome to my Styled Canvas. It feels so good to finally write those words!
It’s been a long time coming and some of you have been incredibly patient waiting for the big reveal. Well here it is and I feel really proud of it.
Urban Jungle Bloggers | Hanging Plants
The serendipity of life never ceases to amaze me. Even more so thanks to this wonderful World Wide Web that we so love to play on. For this Urban Jungle Bloggers, Hanging Plants edition, let me take you on a little story.
My Edible Container Garden
I’m no green thumb. I’ve neglected many plants in my time, even the succulent variety that I chose for their hardiness. I am getting better though. I realise now that they actually need watering (sometimes daily), sun, fertiliser and some attention to keep them mostly happy. With this newfound knowledge, I’ve created an edible container garden, just outside my back door on the deck and, it makes me so happy!
Urban Jungle Bloggers | Plants & Coffee
Couleur café
Que j’aime ta couleur café
Coffee and plants. I’m not sure if Serge would agree with me, but it could be the new coffee and cigarettes non?
I couldn’t resist the latest Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge, especially seeing that I’m lucky enough that my husband works for Nespresso, and we live and breath coffee in our house.
Urban Jungle Bloggers | Cosy & Green Bedroom
I always have some plants in the bedroom, but it’s usually on the table beside the window, where there’s light. I quite like the idea of having some green beside the bed though, so this month’s Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge, “cosy and green” was welcome. It makes sense to have some plants close to where you sleep, they purify the air for one, and some how make us feel more at ease.
Urban Jungle Bloggers | My Plant Shelfie
This month our friends at Urban Jungle Bloggers HQ asked us to show us our “plant shefie”. So here is mine… a neglected plant brought back in from the garden, a thriving one relocated from the kitchen windowsill, and another that recently had their mother removed after it grew into a strange shape in search of the winter sun. After this exercise, I realise how nice it is to see a few plants in this part of the house, there’s certainly enough light for them here, so a couple will definitely be staying for a while.
Rooms to Love | Book Review
Rooms To Love by LeeAnn Yare and Larnie Nicolson | Published by Penguin Books NZ
It’s no secret here that admiring beautiful interiors is a favourite pastime of mine, so I was pretty excited to receive an advance copy earlier this week, of LeeAnn Yare and Larnie Nicolson’s second book, Rooms To Love.
