To say that I am deeply in love with Kelly Reemtsen's art would perhaps be the understatement of the century...................

New PAD on the Block
Lets face it I am an exceedingly lazy blogger - work & life seem to always get in the way, however I am occasionally so inspired that I feel compelled to share it with others - PAD has proved to be one of those times.
This completely fabulous homewares store is in Sydney's Waterloo & I am itching to get there & spend the children's inheritance. They have just got it right, each restored vintage piece has been given it's own special name & with the use of stunning and luxurious fabrics you can purchase something that already has it's own story, lived a full and interesting life and has been given a new injection of love (I have visions of the above chair smoking a cigar whilst women in pastel chiffon, fur collared dressing gowns dance about it). The idea of buying one of these pieces and adding the story of my home to it's history really appeals to me (even if that does consist of Vegemite smears and the constant sound of plastic machine guns).
Vogue Living Blog recently posted about the 3 clever owners - read more here, and have also written an article in their latest issue.

Angelika Taschen reveals to me my true calling in life.....

The minute I gazed upon these photo's it was as though the whole mysterious meaning of my life had suddenly smacked me in the face and screamed :
You were born to lounge on a white couch whilst donning leather pants, stiletto's and a purple fur......
praise be to Angelika Taschen - admired publisher and all-round fairly damn fabulous chick.
View the rest of her brilliant home and life on The Selby.

That Sinking Feeling.....

| My Beautiful Mum & Mother in Law |
Well, as of tomorrow our lovely little house is on the market & I feel sick........not exactly the reaction I was expecting.
We really have outgrown this house & with 3 fully charged boys we are desperate for more space both inside & out, so the time has come. Funny how you really don't appreciate what you have in front of you until the prospect of no longer having it becomes a reality. Oh well, onwards and upwards as they say (once again I have to ask, who are these "they" that we all trust so implicitly?).
