Create your own Hollywood Glam!

We often think wouldn't it be wonderful to live the lives of the rich and famous and have our home lavished with interiors such as their own..... Well you can and it doesn't have to cost you a fortune either.

You can create that special room with some added extras and here are some of my suggestions for you to get that Hollywood WOW factor started .......


Don't forget your glass of champagne ;)

Home Interiors with a Moroccan Influence

I have been noticing of late that there is a certain trend which has been a fundamental key element in quite a number of home interiors - indoor as well as outdoor!

MOROCCAN - bright colours, textured furnishings, beat metal, lanterns, rugs and a combination of wood and wicker.  It's wonderful to see such a change rather than the same old slick lines and minimalistic approach in styling - a breath of fresh air, particularly when summer is just around the corner.

This current styling influence most certainly puts a spring back into my step!

It's a style that you can really do whatever you want with i.e keep it simple and have amazing accent items or just go completely off the Richter scale :)


Here are a few ideas I have created!

Wallpaper is here to stay!

The days have passed where our first thoughts of wallpaper was "Arghhhh" and we would cringe. Well, Wallpaper is back and has been for a little while, and in a big way.

We are fortunate enough to have great creative designers out there who have added an edge and achieved great results incorporating traditional and contemporary styles.

Wallpaper can be used in many different ways i.e. feature walls, art work, bedheads and they can also disguise unpleasant mishaps on our walls :)

One of the big things right now is bringing exterior finishes into our interiors.  It all depends on what your looking for and how far you will go to get a reaction!

So to sum it up ..... wallpaper is not so drab anymore, we can create, be innovative and embrace the trend!

Spring has Sprung, Colours to Inspire and Delight






The days are getting brighter and the nights are getting warmer.
Our moods are bright so let's get our colours right!

As the season changes so do our views on colour be it in fashion or in your home.

The warmer weather makes your feel alive and we tend to turn to colours which have a wonderful effect on us - you smile, you celebrate, your happy!




It's not all about incorporating colours in your home, it's also when you are entertaining.  For instance; a colourful funfilled cocktail, flowers and decorations which can be as simple as glasses or a vase.  What I'm trying to say do what makes you feel happy and what makes you smile - the sun's out, so celebrate!

Wardrobe Ideas - on the bucket list :)

What woman on this earth would not want a fabulous wardrobe/cupboard space just for THEM!

Just think ....  sections dedicated to display your shoes rather than being hidden in the cardboard box which they came in and, of course the handbags!  But then we must not forget our clothes; long dress, short dress, blouses, skirts, jeans etc.  We want to be able to find everything with ease and not lost in our own wardrobe abyss.

Take a look at some of these designs, some may be over the top (but, we would love and dream to have) and there are some that could be easily incorporated into what we already have or even if it gives you an idea of what you could do in your "current" wardrobe space!

Here's another thought for you ..... do you have a spare room which is used for completely nothing or just to hid things away that are no longer needed?  Hey presto!  Your new wardrobe :)

Enjoy - there is nothing wrong in dreaming a little.
