My future child would completely rock this backpack to school. Not so practical for squished & forgotten bananas but cute all the same.

wish list : the tolix

via seesaw

I've been eying of some tolix chairs forever. In that time they seem to have crept into every Melbourne cafe - Done to death but still I love them so. I was thinking of some extra chairs for outside... Hmmm, perhaps the stool for the spare room lamp table. Oh decisions. Fads fade but true love is forever.

Ha, I know I wasn't gone for too long. But my posts have always been sporadic. Some days, donuts, zilch, nothing. other days some nice findings.

Like these beautiful accessories by Scout & Catalogue on etsy. I have yet to plunge into the online shopping world of etsy. Certainly browsed but not as yet purchased. I fear it open up a massive gateway, which could get me into all sorts of trouble.

I can imagine these hand blown glass vases hanging off the picture rails in my home. More simplistic beauty from Analogue Life.

How beautiful is this wallpaper by Pony Rider?

Shown at the Life Instyle trade fair stand for incredibly cute kids clothing label, Olive's Friend Pop. I'm equally in love with the blue chairs..

I've been enamored with Snow Pony for a while and have previously mentioned their beautiful textiles, homewares and blog - which by the way has moved to a new address. I've followed them over there - you should too!

Happy Easter!

monday, monday....

Did the weekend fly past? Or was it because the week felt so long?

Well at least the sun came out. It feels like we've been granted an extended summer.

Saturday, my friend & I talked talked and talked during the car ride down the beach. We didn't make it to many op-shops but came across an amazing store with antique pieces and wonderful coastal collectables. I have eye my an old science lab cabinet and these amazing Danish timber utility style chairs. I can't believe I left empty handed. But I think I'll be finding my way back when more pennies are saved.

On the Sunday JD and I worked a little more on the flat. Nothing overly exciting worth elaborating on or sharing photos of. Bah!

liebemalene vintage

I'm sure you're all familiar with amazing blog and lookbook of Liebemarlene Vintage store. The photos are styled and captured are too beautiful for words.

I wish I was graceful enough to wear heals but most attempts I always resort back to flats. Oh I'm definitely bookmarking some of these looks for the Autumn months.

More loveliness here!

Lovely vignette of flowers and vases so beautifully arranged.

I'll pay my mum a visit.. She may find me swinging on the branches of the magnolia tree in her front garden :)

coveting chairs

via we heart it

via Shannon Fricke

I love the industrial look of vintage school chairs or Tolix chairs - the white or gunmetal and if I were game enough bright yellow. Also tugging my heart strings is the fresh crisp clean look of white Eames but then you can't got wrong with beautiful bentwoods...

so much to love about made well

market day: could this be love... ?

Valentines, shmellentines!

Yes, I am one of those people. Not into it, but not against it. I spent today at the Camberwell market for some self lovin' and treated myself to some nice vintage wardrobe pieces and a beautiful bunch of sunflowers.

How divine are the drafting drawers? Some how I can't justify having it just for housing my wrapping paper and ribbons.

I did buy this art deco dresser for my sister. It was only $75. It's very solid and the are drawers nice a deep and pull out smoothly. This is what one does when your home is filled to the brim with furniture, you can't help but scourer things for family and friends. Share the love!

love at second sight

by Kat Macleod from the Heide

Often when I should be working (cleaning, cooking, or running out the door to meet someone) I do quick blog surf - just to get my fix. I come across things that I adore but don't fully appreciate properly until I stumble across it a second time. This was the case when I first saw this gorgeous limited edition Kat Macleod tea cup set on the Design Files but then again in todays the Age Melbourne magazine. Isn't purdy?
