Fabulous New Fabrics…
One of my favourite bloggers Caitlin Wilson has recently launched her own range of fabrics and they are really wonderful…fresh, colourful and best of all, really easy to coordinate!
I love the range and I am dying to use them on a project…even better, in my own home, but that will have to wait!
Aren’t they just amazing? I am dying to request some samples and see them “in the flesh”so to speak……See the whole range here.
Shiny white and fresh………
While browsing through design blogs this weekend, I came upon these two pristine kitchens…..I really don’t have strong feelings about kitchens for myself….mostly because I don’t own my apartment. As long as it has enough storage and good lighting I am happy….as I am a renter, there is also not too much I can do about the kitchen I have. We are definitely not encouraged to paint cupboard doors by landlords and most apartments here are built and designed with heavy dark wood doors, frames and cupboards and the ubiquitous marble or granite counter tops.
Lately I have really been lusting after a bright fresh kitchen and these two tick all the boxes! Oh to be able to paint all my (fake) mahogany cupboards white and give the kitchen a total makeover……………….this obsession with dark wood and black granite must come to an end now!
Views of Dubai…….
When I was off work sick last week I cleaned up my computer and went through the thousands of photos I have collected over the past couple of years….here are some which I kept and I decided to share them here.
All images taken by me.
I have to have one of these………..
I know I am late in coming to the Moroccan pouf party, but hey, better late than never….I LOVE this silver one and I have got to get one as soon as Global Village opens in December. Each year, Global Village opens for two months , to coincide with the Dubai shopping Festival and this year I will most definitely be heading off there to source a Moroccan pouf or two!
I have seen them popping up everywhere on blogs and designer portfolios and I must say that this one in particular, adds a touch of sparkle to a room…especially a lovely neutral or all white room.
