Turquoise & White

I love the colour combination of turquoise and white, it is so fresh, crisp and lively! We recently purchased a new desk to place in our home office which has a glass top and silver trestle legs. I think I am going to purchase a replica white leather eames chair, and a neautral coloured sofa bed and cover it with beautiful turquoise cushions.

Inspirational Friday

Apologies for not blogging this week, I have been under the weather and still don't feel much better :-( Enough about that though! Here are my favourite pictures this week. Have a terrific weekend. Enjoy xo

The Trestle Table

I don't know what it is at the moment, but everywhere I look, I see trestle tables and I absolutely love what I see. We are going to get a trestle table and feature it in our study. Check out some of the pictures I have been drawing inspiration from.

IKEA

On the weekend we took a trip to IKEA seeking inspiration for our home. We were overwhelmed with lots of great inspiration and made several purchases. 


Check out what we scored!

Unfortunately there were some things that I now wish I had of bought that I didn't! There was also a few things that they were out of stock. This is not such a bad thing as we had a great time processing ideas of what we want for our place.  These are some pics of the things we will pick up next time:

My New Crush

Peacock Chairs.... I am 100% in love with these gorgeous chairs! I am not sure what it is that I love so much about them... Maybe it's their retro glamour, their great shape or even their quirkiness, all I know is... I want one! I would either make it my office chair or place it proudly outside on the verandah of our new house.

I actually have a very funny store to tell about a great find of mine. We had our annual kerbside collection around our area and every year I always go for a drive as you never know what you might find. One of the things I managed to pick up was a peacock chair! It looks very tired and dirty, but with a good scrub and a fresh coat of white paint, it will look as good as new! The chair I picked up looks like picture number 6. I am very fond of the bigger and more traditional sizes (as shown in the last 2 pictures) so if anyone knows someone who is willing to part with their chair, I am keen buyer. Please check out these great pictures of some of my favourites xo
