5 Things Pleasing 30/3/14

Slight delay, but here are my five things pleasing for last week.

1. I keep seeing the word LOVE appear in home schemes. Spot the LOVE.

2. I think you either love or hate the idea of a bathtub in the bedroom. To me it screams ultimate luxury and I particularly love this example:

3. I love this idea of stringing leaves as decoration above a dining table.
(not sure)
4. One of my fav places to visit when road-tripping to Napier is Bridge cafe in the Manuatu Gorge. It has the most beautiful garden and rustic interior - check it out next time you are out that way.


5. My other fav place to stop is Box of Birds, an amazing homewares shop in Shannon.

Pleasing spaces - Apartment Living

It seems these days (in Europe especially) people are trying to cram as much as they can into small spaces. We are a bit spoilt for space here in New Zealand, but with house prices going up some of us are being forced to downsize. With downsizing in mind, here are some pleasing small spaces I have come across...downsizing might not be so bad afterall.

Styling

Styling requires a knack and discipline not to overdo it, but when it is done right, it is so lovely.

Five things that got my design mojo going this week:

 Happy by Olivia Joy StClaire
 Lots of cats by Kitten Rain
Gold dots by Georgiana Paraschiv 
3. I love this use of paint to imitate light. 

4. This cool novel shelf by AMileWithoutTown on etsy



5. Tile pattern in this bathroom - such a striking effect.
