I’d want to make the main bathroom a bit bigger though with double sinks. The main family/meals area would have a lot of natural […]
I was scrolling around the real estate pages, as you do, and I had to share this one. This home is stunning! The black features and the hardwood exposed beams in living areas got me. Of course the styling is gorgeous too – rustic, natural and easy on the eye. This home is currently for sale […]

I was hoping I hadn’t shared this plan before, because it felt familiar, but let’s look at it again anyway if I already have! I love this plan. Ok, I don’t like the laundry (no outdoor access), but that can be fixed. The house has multiple living spaces and relaxed indoor-outdoor flow. And a workshop! […]

If you can get your hands on some rugged looking cactus plants then you should grab them, put them in a mixture of pots and baskets and create a really cool grouped display. I see lots of weird and wonderful cacti pop up on my local buy swap sell Facebook groups. I love the desert […]
Choosing the right grout colour can make all the difference in your bathroom, so it’s worth taking the time to consider all the options if you’re designing a new bathroom. Using a light coloured grout, particularly in conjunction with white tiles, can produce a bright, clean look. This does seem to be the most obvious […]

This home is stunning! The kitchen/living and pool area had me drooling. How about the pool fence? I’ve seen this post/glass combo lots lately and it’s such a good idea. Actually, the grey weatherboard got me too (you know I am sucker for that!). This home is currently on the market and is located in Sorrento, […]
